How small are chocolates getting

[Bobupndown]

Normal Cadbury chocolate in the shape of a frog. The only difference is you feel guilty eating them as they're generally the kid's.

Emm.......nope eat them with glee, if they are still in the cupboard it just means the little vultures haven't seen them or eaten them first

How can they market it as cadburys dairy milk then?

Good question. Lots of things happened after the Mondeleze takeover and many promises were immediately broken, not the least being the promise to keep manufacture in England.

Keep an eye on the Cadbury adverts, you will see the familiar "Contains a glass and a half" but no longer will you see the "of full cream milk".

Since the takeover I have not bought any Cadbury product, but many people complain of the sickly, waxy taste. It's nothing to do with lack of milk either, some of the dairy free chocolate is gorgeous.

Same as that, I dont eat much milk chocolate but Cadbury stuff is just cheap and nasty now

I like a dark chocolate, a favourite is this Co-op own brand, really great fruity taste and not bitter, unlike me!

I can leave this stuff out and the kids leave it alone. Coop does some nice chocolate.

From memory, Wagon wheels back in the '60s were around 3.27" diameter and about 0.55" thick, so definitely larger than the current offering.

We now have the 'low profile' version.

Yeah, not even as good as I remember when buying it overseas. Same as with Coca Cola when I was a kid, you could take a swig off of a bottle and feel it rotting your teeth. We must be getting bigger nowadays, as all products seem to be getting smaller, even condoms.

yep , they have stopped putting the red line on them too , and printing stop at the end




if youve never seen the red line and stop written on the end ,
youve not been unrolling them far enough

Anyone notice Cadburys chocolate is nowhere near as nice as it was years ago ?

Nah i love the stuff, still my favourite chocolate.
Wife doesn't like it cos they don't use certified palm oil, so "they're killing orangutans". It tastes so good though...

Someone once gave me a Hershey bar, without doubt one of the nastiest things I've ever put in my mouth, it tasted like something you'd already eaten some time earlier......

I remember when they introduced the giant mars bars and double sized Boosts and Twixes. Press had a field day whinging about unhealthy eating etc. In a stroke of genius some clever marketing dept came up with the duo. Just split it into 2. Media went quiet then

Do you remember when some **** cottoned onto “work, rest and play” and got that banned?
