Do you think the different colours of mini eggs taste different? DH and I can’t agree.

Yellow taste different 100%. They’re my favourite!

No but now I feel like you're asking me to buy a massive bag just to eat them all to double check.

If you insist Grin

I’ll second it for you.

Yellow definitely have a nicer taste than the others - I wish they would sell them in their own packs.

They taste different to me. Yellow is best, then white. Not overly keen on purple and the rest are nice.

I feel vindicated!

Yellow taste different to all
the others. Or they used to. I remember claiming this to
my boyfriend and mum when I was 16, they didn’t believe me so we did a blind taste test and I could tell each time which was yellow.

Am I crazy to say that there used to be blue Cadbury mini eggs?

breadwidow · 12/03/2023 21:41

Yellow ones definitely used to taste different (better) than the rest, but I think they are now less distinct than the used to be.

No.

Although I've no idea why I say that with such confidence given I eat them by the handful so wouldn't actually know what they tasted like individually....

This. I've been hoovering mini eggs since they appeared in the shops. Luckily I have an excuse as I'm pregnant. That's valid, right?

QueenOfWeeds · 12/03/2023 22:11

Absolutely, @PutinTheFuckingBasket. DH bought a multipack today that contains 10 smaller bags “ideal for egg hunts” in a desperate attempt to ration our consumption.

I don’t like the yellow ones. They go a bit slimy and have an odd taste.

At least you have an excuse! I'm not pregnant just greedy. Blush

I think the yellow taste different.

Agree!

AnyFucker · 12/03/2023 22:39

The pink ones taste nicest

WitheringTights000 · 12/03/2023 22:40

The yellow ones taste different/are nicer! They are my favourite ones!

pnutter · 12/03/2023 22:43

Yellow is best
As is yellow French fancie

evemillbank · 12/03/2023 22:59

Same as last year but not the same as 10yrs ago.

Exactly the same for me!

Goodyetalso · 12/03/2023 23:12

The yellow ones used to taste noticeably different but they don’t any more and haven’t for quite a few years since the recipe changed. Gutted because they used to be my favourites.

Ellewoods20 · 12/03/2023 23:12

Are we all talking about Cadbury’s mini eggs? There’s no brown mini eggs in those

Interesting. Do you think it’s a sort of food memory then?

Felt exactly the same

PiratePetespajamas · 12/03/2023 23:28

Yellow tastes different - and better. The rest all taste the same.

NerdyBird · 12/03/2023 23:49

You can get dark chocolate mini eggs in the US. To do a proper taste test you'd need those as well. I'm sure at least one of the milk choc mini eggs tastes different but usually too busy shovelling them down to check!
