Title: Creme Eggs
Post by: Cherry_Ripe on March 02, 2005, 11:11:55 am

I just noticed that Cadbury's have taken the chick off the packaging and wrappers for Creme Eggs.  How long ago did that happen? I liked the chick logo.

You're right they have took it off. I knew something was differnt but I couldn't put my finger on it. Think that might have happened this year along with the dropping of how do you eat yours.

No they have definitely shrunk like everything else.

As they are only out at Easter they might be making it a little bit smaller each year thinking we won't notice.  

I say add a few centimetres to the width and height

In ten yrs time they will be the size of a baked bean.

My dog had butchers tripe for his dinner.

Title: Creme Eggs
Post by: salsa on March 06, 2005, 08:27:13 am

Oh jeez, tripe is mingin

Title: Creme Eggs
Post by: loulou on March 06, 2005, 02:05:31 pm

It's in a tin and called butchers tripe but just looks like dogmeat except smells vile. It doesn't look like tripe. It's probably the scraps of something.

Title: Creme Eggs
Post by: salsa on March 08, 2005, 08:22:58 am

Ah, the tinned stuff isnt proper tripe i dont think. Thankfully :)

Title: Creme Eggs
Post by: loulou on March 08, 2005, 08:11:42 pm

No I think it's just a name for saying scraps off the floor. It stinks and makes me want to gag but my dog loves it. Tonight I have given him Pedigree chum and he has turned his nose up at it.

Post by: salsa on March 09, 2005, 08:49:36 am

proper tripe is the stomach, and other assorted rubbish.

Title: Creme Eggs

ALL ABOUT TRIPE

What Exactly is TRIPE?

Tripe is the stomach of ruminating mammals. Ruminating mammals include common cloven-hoofed herbivores like cattle, sheep, deer, goats, and antelope.

Creme eggs have definitely shrunk. Yesterday I put a full one in my mouth and there was still room.

Wow Lou, now I need to try that  

But I still miss the chick from the wrapper.

I have found that the white of the egg and the yolk too have changed consistency from a lovely smooth pour-able goo to a stiff, grainy almost hard centre

Yes that is true and I am not happy about it.

There is a web site with a petition on for a kingsize creme egg, if anyone is interested. It would be one & half times bigger than normal!!!

Lets hope they bring it out by next easter...
