I thought they changed the recipe because the price of chocolate went way up due to huge problems with supply?
I've bought tons of packs of bourbons in Tesco and never paid any more than I'd say 70 cent, what bourbons are you buying?Pack of Bourbon biscuit in Tesco is 2.50. Aldi its 0.50
Egg n spoon is similar to what we've had going for quite a few years as the de facto easter egg chocolate treat here. If they taste like ours (well, before the dairy milk replacement) then they are (were) tastier than standard creme eggs.

Creme Eggs are disgusting no matter what recipe. Fuck em.
I wish this was the first reply. Mini eggs are awesome.
Creme eggs were always gross, haven't had one in more than a decade.
I bought one that had a manufacturing fault and it was ALL choc with a small line of biscuit running through it.
Was amaze.

Is Canada still one of the few (or only?) bastions of the original Creme Egg?
Hasn't the USA been stuck with the shitty recipe for ages because Hershey's or someone shit like that has the rights to the sales in the USA of the Cadbury eggs?
Bought some last year and thought something tasted off, googled it and found out they changed the recipe. Haven't bought one since and don't plan to buy this year either.

Yeah, my favourite cereal is Lidl's Crownfield Nougat Pillows, imagine that garbage Kellogg's Krave cereal if it actually tasted like Nutella and was fit for human consumption.Lidl is the shit apart from their fresh fruit and veg.
I love the aisle of mystery down the middle. You might get a wetsuit one day or a bag of concrete mix the next.
the execs had a choice, pay their chocolate suppliers more, who are just some dudes in Africa who have never eaten a chocolate bar in their lives, they just grow and sell cocoa pods. Or they could pay their shareholders more, and look like super successful managers who deserve bonuses. Cost cutting and belt tightening has become the way of business for people psychologically addicted to making profit no matter what. They forgot how to make a successful equilibrium so their suppliers are happy, their clients are happy, and every boat rises. They've been on the lookout for things to exploit for money, they don't know how to let people fucking live. Now the prices of chocolate will rise and their sweet deals get threatened.
climate change comes into play and they're saying chocolate will become a real luxury in coming decades.
