I've eaten the buttons from my egg plus about a 1/4 of the actual egg. I seem to be in the minority 😆

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

Haha! Yesss normalize 3 months of Easter chocolate eating! TBH Saturday Night Egg has been one of the few joys of this utterly miserable start to the year. 🐣

I'm with you OP, I gave my kids their Easter baskets yesterday and DH and I will have some of ours tonight, we're not religious, it's a bank holiday weekend and makes more sense to us to spread the chocolate out over the weekend rather than have a load tomorrow and then proceed to eat after Easter. Will do an egg hunt for the kids tomorrow.

None, it's not Easter Sunday yet. I have 2 to eat from tomorrow. A Thortons classic and a Lindt one.
Enjoyed 2 hot cross buns yesterday though. 😋

Brawcolli · 30/03/2024 18:13

I didn’t realise so many people actually celebrate Easter ‘properly,’ I feel sheltered! I buy eggs when they come on the shelves in shops and eat them until they come back off 😆

concernedchild · 30/03/2024 18:16

None, fancied it earlier but couldn't be bothered to break it out

MorrisZapp · 30/03/2024 18:18

I've been smashing the Malteser Bunnies since they appeared in the shops, happy Easter op!

Sunquest · 30/03/2024 18:18

A bag of mini creme eggs. Might go rogue and eat the mini egg Easter egg later.

FoxyLoxyLoo · 30/03/2024 18:20

I MAY have eaten 2 caramel eggs (the little ones), a bag of mini eggs and 8 chocolate rabbits.

Daffyyellow · 30/03/2024 18:21

Made a chocolate cake and decorated it with mini eggs for friends visiting. I had 1 mini egg on my slice and a couple more whilst decorating the cake!

Muchtoomuchtodo · 30/03/2024 18:26

No big ones have been consumed yet here but I did eat far too many mini eggs and hot cross buns earlier this week!

We started our Christmas cake before Christmas last year too 🤷🏻‍♀️

MissDemelzaCarne · 30/03/2024 18:26

Start eating Hot cross buns on Psalm Sunday but no Easter eggs until tomorrow or after the Easter vigil service.

My DM would turn in her grave 😱

gingercat02 · 30/03/2024 18:31

None cos it's not Easter until tomorrow. DH and I have one to share. DS has 2.

BiddyPop · 30/03/2024 18:32

None, I've had 3 mini eggs (smaller than a creek egg) on Wednesday and no others yet. I hope there will be one for me tomorrow.

awitchoftroubleinelectricblue · 30/03/2024 18:33

None. I have other chocolate; the good stuff will be better tomorrow. I have a Martin's milk and white chocolate popping candy egg and I can't wait to eat it. I ate the chocolates in the little drawer already and they were delicious.

Tisfortired · 30/03/2024 18:33

No Easter eggs until Easter Sunday but loads of mini eggs, creme eggs, caramel eggs, rice crispie cakes and M&S whippy dippy bar.

tryingtohelp82 · 30/03/2024 18:35

Wow so many people stick to the Sunday.

lissie123 · 30/03/2024 18:36

Not bothered by Easter Eggs. Just feel crap after eating them and the sugar makes me overeat. Just currently drinking a very nice glass of red and some roasted olives whilst DH cooking dinner.

UpUpUpU · 30/03/2024 18:41

Some people are so bloody miserable! I’ve been eating the odd one since about February! Not eaten one yet today as not had chance but I will do tonight. Had a quick Google and I can’t find a law stating it’s illegal if it’s not Easter Sunday 🤷🏻‍♀️

ladygindiva · 30/03/2024 18:43

None but I've had a giant bar of creme egg chocolate

Quacking4it · 30/03/2024 18:47

I've had about 500 bags of mini eggs last few weeks

Wehavealaughdontwe · 30/03/2024 18:48

1 packet of orange mini eggs (highly recommend) and a full proper egg complete with bonus chocolate bar that came with it. Sunday Shmunday

DrinksbytheSea · 30/03/2024 18:49

I didn’t realise people wait until Easter Sunday to eat their eggs. I consider it a whole Easter weekend and I ate mine yesterday 😁

Idratherbepaddleboarding · 30/03/2024 18:50

None because we only have one each. I have Chocolate orange, DH has Kit Kat chunky and DS has Milky bar maybe with buttons maybe a bar, I’m not sure. DS has already has his Galaxy one and DS and I have had a couple of the little Easter Eggs over the past month or so just because Easter egg chocolate tastes better than normal chocolate.

Idratherbepaddleboarding · 30/03/2024 18:51

Oh and it also annoys me that “large” eggs now only come with one bar/ tiny bag of chocolate! You used to get 2 in a medium egg!
