Re: 50% off Easter candy tomorrow!

They seriously don't make Cadbury Creme Eggs like they used to. THERE USED TO BE REAL NOUGAT AND THE YOLK WAS MADE WITH REAL EGG YOLK I PROMISE YOU I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP. Raaarrrggghhh graaaarrrrgggh.

Now, the filling just tastes the same, and cloying, with a bitter chemical aftertaste. And the chocolate is 85% paraffin, not even real milk chocolate like it used to be.

Thus endeth the rant.

THANK YOU! I used to love them, and hadn't tasted them in years but when I bought one I was all "what is this shit this is not the cadbury egg I knew!?" But everyone said I was crazy. I was convinced they changed the recipe. And I will now take your anonymous comment as fact and feel vindicated!

Not to mention they were much larger.

They are about half the size they were when I was a kid. And you are right, they tasted different back then. Creamier and less sweet. But I hear this is only with the American version of the eggs. If you go to Canada or Europe, you can still get the old fashion version.

ayrt

Nope. Or if they retained the old recipe, it is no longer being used north of the 49th parallel. I am in Canada, and they are indeed now the stuff of wailing and gnashing of teeth.
