Cadbury's and the Halal Easter Eggs
Can't help but feel a bit sorry for Cadbury..
If you don't know the story..
Firstly, a picture surfaced apparently of a Cadbury employee holding a halal certificate and an Easter egg (not seen the picture tbh).
Cadbury then issued a statement that none of their Easter eggs had a halal certificate (because of course they don't need one as they don't contain any meat). Now they are apparently getting horsewhipped in some quarters for NOT having halal safe Easter Eggs!
Sometimes the stupidity of general public beggars belief.D3 07 SE - still going strong

Choc is yummy.
Plenty of non-Christian places celebrate xmas, too, with plastic fur trees. It’s more of a consumermas but still. Even in Riyadh....

I am sorry if you were offended by the fact the easter eggs were halal or possibly not halal and possibly were not in fact eggs but egg shaped chocolate.D3 07 SE - still going strong

I heard that if you ate the hole in the middle of a chocolate easter egg, you will float in the bath - that's what my Nan told me D3 07 SE - still going strong

I’m concerned that you seem to have developed a chocolate fixation. Go and have a lie down in a darkened room with some Mini Eggs. 2014 MY Discovery XS Indus Silver. Sadly gone. Second last LR of forty eight years continuous ownership.
