During a recent nature reserve outing with teens, Prince Harry revealed he'd never toast a marshmallow in his life. The confession has seemed to shock the American public more than when pics of the Prince's nude tush surfaced a few years back. Quick to keep his "I'm a cool royal" reputation, though, he added, "But I've made campfires and slept under the stars more than I've slept in a bed." We're going to have to call BS on that one, because, well, Royals: They're Not Just Like Us.
Upon hearing the news, good-intentioned folks took to Twitter to roast the Prince — and invite him to toast 'mallows with them. But no one took the task at hand more seriously than Peeps: The brand wrote a letter to Meghan Markle, the Prince's girlfriend and rumored soon-to-be fiancé, asking her to bring him to the factory to see marshmallow-making in action and, of course, toast them.
The gag seems far-fetched, but you have to applaud Peeps' creativity. The company mocked up two Wonka-style golden tickets, and filled its plea with punny lines: "We were recently 'royally' surprised to hear the news that your beau, Harry, has never roasted a marshmallow over a campfire," the note started.
As of now, Peeps hasn't gotten an RSVP from the couple — but we're holding out hope. Because if marshmallows have taught us anything, it's this: Even sticky situations have a way of turning out great in the end.
