The word 'Easter' on Easter eggs

Cadburys Easter egg advert popped up on my newsfeed tonight and I have just wasted a good 30 mins of my precious time on this earth scrolling through the comments left by complete morons people directed at Cadburys.

Apparently Cadburys have removed the word Easter from their boxes. This has been done (apparently again) to appease non-Christians, it is sacrilegious and many people are furiously are demanding that Cadburys reinstate the word EASTER on their packaging forthwith.

AIBU to think that the world has gone mad?
AIBU to think that 'God' (whoever or whatever he might be) doesn't give a flying fk what is written on the box of a chocolate egg?

0)For anyone who thinks they were labelled 'Easter eggs' in the past, Cadburys along with every other chocolate manufacturer have called their eggs 'chocolate eggs' for years. They sometimes add in 'Easter' but not always. (See attached pic of retro. packaging).

Maybe in England but in NI it's the DUP brigade and their kin, although to be fair they would probably find a fair bit in common with Britain First !

In England it is people who rarely see the inside of a church but want to protect England as a Christian country.

In other words they don’t like Muslims.
