Easter Eggs

They've been 'Hollow chocolate egg' s for some years, in fact probably as long as I've been eating them, I can't think I've EVER seen one that's actually titled Easter egg. If you really want I can take the camera in to work and photograph our extensive range?

Apparently so BUT it should (allegedly) be "taken" as an enema at 38.5°C rather than orally.

Incidentally, when you drop a cold chocolate egg, it breaks into shards. If you drop your guts after a warm chocolate enema, it breaks into sharts.

Easter, a time when they can take a quid's worth of chocolate. shape it like an egg and charge £10 for it.

What's the Easter equivalent of Bah Humbug? :D

Plenty available for a quid. Not "own brand" either.
 
Political correctness has gone mad and it is killing the society. Mother, Father, he and she are becoming taboo. Think about it!!!

But seriously those chocolate eggs are so loaded with sugar and so harmful to health that thee should boycott them regardless.

I'm pretty sure it's the tabloids and farcebook that are more to blame than the PC brigade for most of the b*****ks. Everything these days is done to spark argument and hate.

A wander tbrough the tabloid on-line forums will show that not only are you correct, the way their 'stories' are loaded, their use of inflammatory language, innuendo, half-truths, pis$ poor grammar, and placement of twisted ideas, they are designed to pander to their poorly educated, narrow minded and often downright racist readers. In extreme cases the likes of the Daily Fail introduce the tacit use of articles that are designed to get around legal constraits on what they are required to do by loading articles with questions that point to a maybe which is to be received by a reader as the "troof". Shambolic stated of affairs from off-shore media owners.

Another pagan ritual stolen by the Christian mafia in their need to make a fairy tale fit in with their doctrine, Jesus must be burlin' in his grave or heavenly bunk seeing how it's all become.
I believe Jesus was a freedom fighter, a man of the people,not a son of a god, let's face it, he'd be crucified as a terrorist today or ridiculed
 
As sure I was of the sun rising today I was even more convinced that there would be someone starting a thread about this total non story. Outraged about chocolate. Have a word with yourself.
 
I saw someone share pictures of piles of Easter eggs from the 80's with the exact same non-Easter wording on the front. Like most useless scares that go around the closet racists on Facebook it's flamed by those with an agenda.

Of course it's bad form to call people racist on the forum, but idiots can't help labelling themselves. :D

I am fed up with all the anti-alien nonsense.... it's enough to make me want to return to the planet Zobb where I was born and I will take my motor engine that runs on sea water with me..... I don't think your planet is ready to join our inter-planetary federation. Someone will try again in 3000 years time..... if you are still here.

Who would have guessed that chocolate could be such a divisive cause of the end of days......

Live long and get spotty

This thread inspired me to take a look.

Hmmm, this is the loot of my youngest following the egg hunt.

Can't say I can Easter mentioned anywhere. Then again I can't remember whether they had it on last year either. Like with many stories, some truth to it, but then conclusions drawn to suit parties pro or against to explain the reasons.

That picture is porn!

Mini eggs are not seasonal any longer - an all year round obesity threat to our nation. They should be taxed £5 per 50g portion.

I am outraged.....

My mini egg 'Egg' had Easter mentioned a few times on the back.

Ahhh but 20 minutes of migraine is, for some, better than a lifetime of a 48" waistline and bum cheeks banging off the backs of knees....

I will have to take a look, however if I have to turn t over or look at the back or perhaps in the ingredients section then surely that doesn't really count.

I personally don't see any difference, this whole story has been blown out of proportion. I went to a NT site on Friday, and they were doing a promo in conjunction with Cadbury and that had Easter mentioned on it.
 
At easter, cadbury mini eggs mention easter.
Other times of the year they don't (AND THEY'RE AVAILABLE ALL YEAR ROUND)
Production date will dictate if it's mentioned or not. Nothing more.

Which I am, and too many bananas too.
I've not touched chocolate as a result of years ago, being laid up for 2 weeks with severe migraine where it felt like my head was being tightened in a vice if I so much as moved.

Nasty, but then regardless of that, these days you wouldn't touch chocolate with a bargepole, right?
 
I really must delete the TP App from my smartphone...... I am sitting by the Bristol Chennel waiting with my camera for something to happen and, sadly, all that is occurring is I am watching ugly parents screaming at their ugly kids to behave and I am stuck wishing I had a loaaded rifle rather than following a thread about Easter (or not) eggs.... I am depressed.

Correct.(y) I won't even chance it with chocolate flavoured protein shakes. :)

You need a chocolate mini egg launcher, if there is such a thing. (y)

Hm interesting thought....

Some very professional ones available... a mini egg would fit the sling easily...

Probably lethal though. The tabloids would scream "Death by Chocolate".

Looking at the band of 'el gormless' that just passed me by they are heading for "Death by Lard"

I am going for a drive..... Weston super Mare is calling me.....
 
Weston-Super-Mud at the moment (lowish tide!) but it's on the way in. Likely to be as child infested as everywhere else too. Ground bait catapults can be pressed into service as launchers for more lethal less innocent projectiles, although a handful of maggots would be as satisfying as a well aimed mini egg, especially if the source could be concealed before it was obvious...

The one in the photo has it once on the back in about 9 point font.
