why doesn't easter egg chocolate taste like it did when I was a kid?

 

[Karen-Coral]

cos everythings mass produced shi...te! lol

the chocs not even as thick as it was.

so good easter eggs are now lost leaders in the supermarket.

 

[lewington]

aint that the truth

 

[k4tie-d]

m&s do quite thick ones and the chocolate is ok, just a bit expensive.

we go to our local chocolate factory shop and they do amazing ones.

try hard to stay away from the kinnerton or bonbon ones as the chocolate is rubbish but the kids love those ones cause there the ones that have power rangers and barbie and stuff like that on them.

Also a quarter of sweets use to last all day, now you only get about 6 ot 7. How times have changed :rant: :rant: (or is it just I have got bigger ??? and my gob has got bigger ???? That's the question!!!).

ALERT HALF PRICE EASTER EGGS IN ASDA ,i had a chunky kit kat and a cadburys cream egg one for £1 each (w00t)

 

[k4tie-d]

a quater of sweeta used to cost 55p at the shop up the road from us, its now like £1.50 or somthing stupid like that.

sainsburrys was selling easter eggs for £1 each before easter.

they were half price for a week the it was buy one get one free. we bought 12 and on saturday there was only 4left and it wasnt even easter

oh and while wer on the subject im not being funny but i miss the added colours in smarties, they taste rubbish now with out them.

oh and another thing dont know if england is the same but what the :rant: are they doing to the swing parks. when i was wee there was a helter skelter slide and a big wavy one and swings and a proper fast roundabout that you could spin so fast it felt like you could be thrown 6ft at any moment. and a disk to run on and a seesaw. a tire swing and a flying fox.

but now because of "HEALTH AND SAFTEY" reasons theres a rubbish wee slide some tiny swings and and the worst round about in the world. they got rid of the seesaw cause aparently its not nice for kids to see that they are different weights. and the disk because you could fall of and hurt yourself (that was half the fun) grrrr!!! :rant: :rant:

anyone elses park been destroyed by health and saftey

i remember going into our local shop with 5p and coming out with 10 sweets :blink:
