just been into Tesco in Bournemouth (kinson) and bought 3 packs. they had at least 20 on the shelf. they also had the 12 pack for £1.97 but these work out about a penny and a half more each egg.

Er, more like just under 20p per egg. Maths not your strong point?!

Well funny enough I did have one and noticed the difference, so I looked it up a few weeks ago that I saw they had changed the recipe so yes, I did noticed the difference. :confused:

Um, it IS Cadburys chocolate, its no longer Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate.
It's time we voted with our feet and didn't buy it and support British brands that care. The new owners just want to milk it for every penny.

There were loads of creme egg 12pk for £1.97 in my local, just look at them and thought, screw you Mondelez and Kraft and walked straight past them!

No, it's relative. As you eat them, your mass increases up to the point (after consuming around 17, give or take depending on your initial mass) where eventually the eggs slowly orbit your body.

Ridiculous that they only have 5 in a small box and then 12 in a larger box.

Well i'd like to see you fit 12 in the smaller box?!
Check out the Amazon reviews for Creme Eggs. Cadbury is getting slaughtered since the switch to cheaper chocy.

You should find loads on the shelves at all Tesco stores, why? because it's made with cheap [email protected] chocolate and should not be eaten until that chocolate is Cadburys chocolate. I think they have the cheek to wrap the chocolate in Cadburys wrapping but not contain Cadburys, I think that's fraud!

Good, hope the arrogant whatsits are watching their continued failure to persuade us to eat the cheaper junk recipe

If you had two unlabelled creme eggs one with the "new" recipe and one with the "old" you'd have a 50/50 chance of getting which one was which correct as doubt you'd be able to tell the difference.

Don't usually eat chocolate...until after Easter when I randomly crave it due to such things as non stop Facebook Easter posts and HUKD creme egg listings! Just grabbed a few boxes of these in tesco there they were still priced at £1.50 but knew they'd just been lazy as all the shops want rid of them asap after easter. Actual don't taste too bad for 15p each - some people just like complaining (like me usually!) and hate the word change unless it's your 20p back from the bar staff no doubt - but as some one who hates chocolate these are actually pretty decent but I kinda want to melt them all in the microwave they'd be better all warm and sticky I think? Heat from me but ill withdraw my vote once I've put on a kilo and feel sick later. Thanks :sunglasses:

They were £1 in Co-Op on Monday so this looks a better reduction than some other supermarkets. Good deal.
