It was Easter weeks ago. It will go off unless you eat it now!

ZonkedOut · 07/05/2012 21:22

It depends on why he's not eaten it himself!

PurplePidjin · 07/05/2012 21:23

Is he old enough to notice?

chinam · 07/05/2012 21:24

Don't do it. I gave into the same temptation last night only to have DS come looking for his bunny today. Ooh the guilt when I kept insisting that he must have eaten it himself.

It's Thornton's - YABU Grin

How is it not eaten yet

VonHerrBurton · 07/05/2012 21:25

Hahahahaha! DH ate one of DS's yesterday! He was right in saying if they sit around any longer they will turn white!

DS is one of those kids that likes the idea of getting easter eggs, seeing them in their bright packaging etc - but he doesn't have a partiularly sweet tooth, so to be fair to DH, although I took the piss, DS won't even realise...

Mother not the bunny! My mother ate my bunny in blue foil don't think it was Thorntons 35 years ago, I still bring it up.

If was just an egg, I'd say go for it.

WorraLiberty · 07/05/2012 21:29

If he's old enough to understand then you should ask him first if he minds.

If he's asleep right now then no, I wouldn't eat something that doesn't belong to me.

Mothership1 · 07/05/2012 21:31

He is only 18mo so no fear of him even knowing it's even there! Problem is the guilt, I told my DP he couldn't eat it last week grrrrrr!
Already thought about the sell by date .... Not until march 2013!!! God damn those artificial ingredients Angry

maybe a nibble... i'll have to do the same sometime as my sons easter egg (gift from church) has smarties in and he cant have them

ThePathanKhansWitch · 07/05/2012 21:35

He's too young for a whole bunny! Fill yer boots! Grin.

WorraLiberty · 07/05/2012 21:37

It probably doesn't matter too much if he's only 18 months old then...as long as he's not going to scream the house down for it tomorrow!

I've stopped buying easter eggs for other people's children since I joined MN and realised how many parents eat their kid's eggs.

The likelihood of the child getting to eat it is almost zero it would seem Grin

And technically It would be in the interest of my DS dental health, in theory I am only looking after the interest of my child's health .... Right Grin

My DNephew sells his chocolate to DSIL, very enterprising I thought

Put a pound in his moneybox to ease the guilt.

I was 10 before I realised that there were sweets inside the egg....thanks to my mothers criminal talent for breaking into Easter eggs. Grin
