If we stop buying it in protest, they will change it back.
It's all about the money. They can make more money by making it absolute shit with crappy ingredients.

But only if people still buy it.

And they will.

People will have a moan then just carry on buying the stuff.

So kraft will carry on fucking with our chocolate.

They will only stop if sales go down enough.

I think they've all been slowly tweaking so that gradually we forget what chocolate actually tastes like.

I bet if we had some 70s choc to compare, we'd be astonished.

You can tell I feel this is a Very Important Issue, can't you? Grin

Royalsighness · 12/01/2015 14:24

Why have they done this? DICKS!

Royalsighness · 12/01/2015 14:27

Tried to pull the wool over everyone's eyes with that move, I will still eat them but I won't be happy about it I can tell you that!

wobblyweebles · 12/01/2015 14:38

Well, without tasting it it's hard to say. But it's not looking good.

AristotlesTrousers · 12/01/2015 15:27

I still haven't forgiven them for changing the shape of Dairy Milk.

Im angry too - heres my petition to Kraft

here

The more people that sign it the better.

PixieofCatan · 12/01/2015 15:35

I just buy nice chocolate from Lidl now. Dairy milk has been ruined since the day Kraft bought it and started fucking around with things :(

HedgehogsDontBite · 12/01/2015 15:36

Please tell me this isn't true and you're just trolling [weeps]

MythicalKings · 12/01/2015 15:36

Bastards.

weeblueberry · 12/01/2015 15:37

Properly outraged.

ghostland · 12/01/2015 15:42

I see them year-round in the shops Hmm. They don't taste any different to me but I'm hardly a creme egg connoisseur (although if I had to pick a chocolate, I would definitely choose a creme egg).

MrsMogginsMinge · 12/01/2015 16:17

They have messed with the wrong woman. I am 34 weeks pregnant and my need for Exactly The Right Type Of Chocolate is critical right now.

I've signed! The gradual yukkiness of Cadbury's is really helping my weight loss though. But it's the principle!

Recipe cowboys. Fuckers.

I had some Christmas Lindt chocolate and that didn't taste the same, either.

CheeseAndBeans · 12/01/2015 16:36

What?!
First changing the shape of dairy milk and now this.
Bastards.

Jennco · 12/01/2015 16:50

I am so annoyed that the 6 pack is now a 5 pack :(

Guess I will have to buy 2 packets and eat the emaining 4 myself (will let Dh have 2)
:(

Jennco · 12/01/2015 16:50

remaining

(I have 4 children)

BankWadger · 12/01/2015 17:04

Cadburys died for me the day the NZ factory started doing the fillings UK style AND ditched the peppermint flavour.

So craft can do what they like because I'll be shovelling Montezumas in my gob.

BankWadger · 12/01/2015 17:05

Jennco did you base your family size on creme egg multi packs? Grin

forwarding · 12/01/2015 17:06

They're fucking bastards, but I don't think Kraft own Cadbury any more.

Hang on I'm googling...
