Cadbury/covid? Wtf is wrong with my dairy milk?

[Can2022getanyworse]

I had covid twice in 4 months last year. Didn't think I'd been left with any ongoing problems but have just had a bar of dairy milk and it tastes awful!?

Have they changed the recipe or is my sense of taste screwed? I don't think anything else has changed taste, just my favourite chocolate bar.

YANBU - Cadburys has changed for the worse
YABU - It's your aging/disease-ridden taste buds at fault

They changed the recipe a while back. Only the dairy milk things made in Ireland now taste nice - freddos, Easter eggs and maybe buttons I think, it’s horrible.

Changed for the worse

Definitely ruined. Not you.

Not you at all. The so-called chocolate is ruined.

It's not you. And I'm ready to march and demand changes. How very dare them.

How long ago are you comparing? They ruined Cadbury for me a few years ago. Haven’t heard of a recent change though so if you liked it just before you had covid then might be your sense of taste.
As PP said some is traditional so maybe try the ones like Freddo

I suspect I need to do some more research. Off to sainsburys to buy Freddos....

Last time I had a fruit and nut it made me vomit for 2 hours afterwards.
Something very different about Cadburys now.

It's awful now. Galaxy is still good

Palm oil not covid. Vile.

Pretty sure there’s not a glass and a half in every bar these days. It’s oil you’re tasting, not dairy.

Only Twirls taste the same, bought some creme eggs on Saturday and they were vile, nothing like the ones I remember from childhood

I think Cadbury's chocolate is delicious & have never noticed any change

Cadburys is rank now! Get thee to aldi and get some choceur and moser Roth!

I eat less and buy Tony's instead. Reminds me of when Lush took palm oil out of their soap and you were left with a large plasticy lego brick with no lather.

You've suddenly developed better taste

It’s likely to contain a glass and a half of palm oil rather than milk these days. Leaves a horrible taste and oily film in the mouth.
I stopped buying it a long time ago. Aldi chocolate is cheaper, nicer taste, no palm oil.

Check the label - Cadbury's chocolate made in Ireland has OCO ( stands for Coolock where the factory is ) on the labelling.

Try the mini eggs choc bar. That tastes like childhood. The rest tastes like lard 🤢

I had a box of milk tray last week which tasted odd , I couldn’t eat them , which is not like me and chocolate. I think it’s only dairy milk that is still made properly by Cadbury, I know they changed things a long time back , but it feels like another nasty change has happened on top of that.

I used to love Milk Tray - used to prefer it above luxury chocolates, bought a box as a treat last year and it was disgusting.
