Avoid everything with coffee or white choc and eat everything with nuts and caramel.

I don't eat a lot of White Chocolate cause it's so fatty. Dark chocolate is actually good for you health wise not weight wise lol I do like a good dark chocolate. I swear you guys I am gonna have to get you to postal me over some chocolate from the UK. I have not seen anything for easter as of yet. They have Valentines candy out in the stores over here. Right at Valentines they will start putting out the Easter things. I love the mini eggs that have the hard colored sugar coasting and the milk chocolate inside by cadberry.

Chocogirl I just checked out a nutritional value table and white chocolate actually has less fat than milk chocolate.  Dark chocolate has the least but only just.

I had some lovely free range Duck eggs from Ash End House Farm yesterday. I heartily recommend those.

Why don't they just make a cream egg bar? A long bar in segments with cream egg fondant in the middle? It would go well I'm sure.

A bit like a frys cream? That would be nice and so less messier to eat.

Yes, like a chocolate cream but thicker with chunkier segments.

Thats a great idea. WOuld go well with a hot drink and would be a little less messier than creme eggs. That could just be me though, depends on the way you eat it!

I don't want to quibble, but surely the point of a Creme Egg is that it's... well, an egg?

True, maybe the bar should be called something else. Like Creme Egg Bar

I had a creme egg yesterday; I know someone mentioned that they were smaller now but I didn't realise just how small. And without the chick on the wrapper they are just not so much fun anymore.


If they made a bar it would be difficult to see the yellow 'yolk' of the creme bit. It would just be another bar with creme stuff in the middle IMHO

Are you sure you can say Easter Eggs now Cherry? I heard they now have to be called 'domed chocolate celebratory late March/early April festival gifts'.

I don't recommend buying Cadbury's Peanut Butter Egg.
The pb is really gritty and bitter.
The ones I recommend highly are the Caramilk Cafe Egg, Dream Egg, and Truffle Egg.

If they brought the chick back they would have to make sure they reflected the multi-cultural and multi-sensory nature of all chicks.

Easter eggs have nothing to do with Christianity, they are a ferttility symbol from pagan days, so no need for PC.

Reflecting diversity isn't much to do with Christinaity either. We have to do diversity analysis of our courses and it just means making sure you've got a few women (if it's plumbing), a few men (if it's childcare), someone with hearing or visual impairments or some other physical disability (a dicky heart will do), someone with a mental health needs (bipolar, depression etc) and if possible, someone with learning difficulties (dyslexia is ideal). Throw in a nice mix of Muslims, Hindus, Christians, Jews and perhaps a Buddist for maximum interest and hey presto - you have a course.

My sister and I assume that Somerfield must have some sort of criteria like this.  In my local (very small) branch, there is a guy with one leg, one who is very deaf, and several with learning difficulties.  They all seem to do a good job though.  My sister has tried to get a job there without success.  My postman also says that you only stand a chance of getting a job with the Royal Mail now if English is your second or third language and preferably that you can't read.

All these quotas are ridiculous. Yes, you shouldn't be allowed to discriminate against disabled people, black people etc., but if you're employing people solely on the basis of making the numbers fit it becomes a farce. True equality is when everyone is judged on merit alone.
