You all say the taste different I fell that your all just sheep saying the same as everyone else on here . To me they still taste great they maybe taste a bit different but I wouldn't have noticed . I notice nearly anything when changed but not the cream eggs . I fell its all in your minds once someone says they taste different etc you then think they do .

Dairy Milk is my favourite chocolate. It may not be handmade Belgian stuff, but I can recognise it by the smell at 20 paces. My experience was that I didn't even know there had been a change. I thought I had got a bad batch.
It's a first world problem, I'm not trying to start a petition or anything. These were one of my favourite treats, now I would not buy them at any price. It's not a matter of principle, or anything like that. I'm in it for the specific type of chocolate.
If you're the kind of person who thinks 'chocolate is chocolate' I don't hold anything against you. But, trust me, the difference is clear as night and day. I volunteer to blind taste test any chocolate in the world aginst Dairy Milk, and I promise you I cannot lose, because either I'm right or someone finds a chocolate I enjoy as much as Dairy Milk. The search, however, continues.

I've loved these for many years .... the yanks have destroyed them with their recipe of chocolate and inner goooo. Shame, but I guess I won't get any fatter.

Great deal, I miss the taste of the originals :disappointed:
Please remember - having a cream egg straight from the freezer is a good thing...
To be fair its not a massive drop i think a lot of people remember eating these as kids when there hands were somewhat smaller :smiley:

Are yes Green Shield Stamps, when I was in the Army worked part time in a garage and added up all the single and double gallons of petrol I sold and gave myself the balance of the quad stamps for buying 4 galloons. I was exchanging on a weekly basis and my best purchase was a socket set which I had until a couple of years ago but it disappeared in a house move.

These are "on offer" from £1.65 to £1.59 in my local Aldi Cardiff Bay. It's clearly not a national deal - so why all the heat? People are voting HOT without even checking the OP and reading the comms...makes the site pointless IMO if this keeps happening as it does... :confused:

I refuse to buy ANYTHING made by Kraft-Mondelez - not just the crap they try to pass off as chocolate! The reason for this is because they promised there would be no sackings and before the ink was dry on the Takeover of Cadbury's, they sacked the Keynsham (Bristol) workers. Rant over.

Despite what some are saying on here, they definitely aren't as good as they were before. I do wish they would change them back to having proper Cadbury chocolate. That said, I still love a creme egg and this is a great deal... Have some heat.

No reason to believe that it's not national.
5 for 99p beats the Tesco and One Stop deals recently posted - just!
I can't stand them myself but bought a couple of boxes for my grown up daughter who loves them.
Store specific offer.
Nationally these are £1.59
