How many Easter eggs have you eaten today?

[Ttc125]

Curious 😆 how many and what type ?
I had half of a cadburys crunchie egg, so high in sugar so don’t know if i wanna eat the rest yet , but I’m so tempted 😭

I’ve had a choc orange Easter egg so far and about 1 million mini eggs

None today. I finished off a Lindt Golden Bunny bar at lunchtime though.
Tomorrow I'll be getting a Lindt Lindor Salted Caramel Egg.

Today none (so far) but I did treat myself to a small Leonidas one as I was passing the shop as it's my favourite chocolate in the world.

That brings my total of eggs still to eat to 5, and one already eaten.

I bought 3 of them for myself, but in my defence I'm pregnant with a raging sweet tooth and over Easter weekends in the past I'd probably have got through more calories (and £s!) in wine than I will in chocolate!

So you've been told off multiple times for eating them early and shamed by one poster who doesn't touch chocolate.

That'll teach you OP with your mild/innocent thread!!

I do wish we could have a 'How very Mumsnet!' button on responses just like the Thanks button.

Chocolate in shell shape seems to taste better than in bar form. I have heard they use a different recipe which may explain why. I'm tempted to pop over the road and grab one but Norrisons are charging £3.50 for a shell+1 bar which seems steep.

I had a creme egg in the car earlier as compensation for braving Tesco on a Saturday.
Ds2 has eaten two proper size ones this week from school. Everything else they'll get tomorrow.

I don't have Easter eggs for me. I'd rather have a big bar of fruit & nut.

My lovely MIL gave me a Cadbury Creme egg egg! DH has one for me but I won't get it til tomorrow.

Well we saw some family today so my first one is in the cupboard waiting until the kids go to bed 😁then I shall indulge!

I gave my kids a bag of Easter craft stuff and their Easter eggs yesterday. Specifically so I could eat mine after bedtime last night.

It's a Cadbury mini egg one, but the shell of the egg has micro mini eggs inside it 🥰 had 1/4 last night and planning more tonight.

DS and I have been sharing a small Easter egg every saturday night since they appeared in the shops, instead of ice cream or whatever for pudding 😁(so since Christmas really!)

We’ve laid off this week though because it might make Easter Sunday eggs feel less special (our house, our logic!)

I'm not against eating them early but I haven't yet had any. If I didn't have a toddler I probably would have by now. I have to hide all evidence of chocolate as he loves it!

I'm not sure OP has been 'told off' or shamed... I think it's fairly standard practice to eat Easter eggs on or after Easter Sunday. You can eat them earlier, it's not illegal, but I think it's pretty normal not to 🤷🏻‍♀️ it's hardly peak Mumsnet to describe a practice that, in all likelihood, millions of people adhere to.

No Easter eggs, but a ludicrous amount of hot cross buns! About five! 🤭 I'm trying to use them up you understand...

One massive Lindt one. A handful of mini eggs. Going to balance it out with something savoury now some crisps

None. Dh had better have got one for me for tomorrow, though, or I’ll have to eat the one I got for him.

I love this. Good for you. I might follow your example next year.

None yet. Hoping for some chocolatey bargains after Easter.

Small Fredo egg in one sitting. Was so good

I've eaten one. It was calling to me. I'm sure Jesus doesn't mind.

A Lindt salted caramel bunny

I ate half of a Cadury's Buttons egg yesterday, despite not liking the chocolate that much anymore. I blame my hormones tbf

I love that someone came on just to say they rarely eat chocolate . Why bother?!

None today but yesterday a whole Malteser egg - yes I know how horrendous this is and that it was actually a days calories but that’s it now till next year! 😄 Hope that makes you feel less alone OP

Like everyone else, none - Easter Day is not until tomorrow.
But I did have a hot cross bun 🙂

None you only eat them on Easter day. One hot cross bun on good Friday then you must wait to break lent until Sunday

I had half an egg. I know I should probably save the other half until tomorrow but I'm weak so will probably finish it tonight once the kids are in bed
