Cadburys are not going down this route. Your issue was reading anything from the Daily Mail. They are desperate to start culture wars wherever they can. |

I don’t do Easter, it’s a load of old bollocks. Just enjoy the bank holidays.

I remember a similar story that a school in Liverpool had stopped serving Hot X buns to kids and the outrage it had caused...same knee jerkers reacted.
The headmaster said that they'd never served them in the first place ...a bit like the national anthem banning in Bristol that caused similar outrage at some ceremony. Turned out was never part of the ceremony previously.

To be fair Badgo, lots of folk in Hartshill do Easter Used to go into Noahs before a game and was lots of long haired folk in there that looked like they'd just risen from the dead . Was an all round yearly thing to be fair . I assumed they love Easter around there. |

Easter eggs are not Christian anyway. <thread ends> Not so. Matthew 28:2-7 Then the angel spoke to the women. “Don’t be afraid!” he said. “I know you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead, just as he said would happen. Come, see where his body was lying. And now, go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead, and he is going ahead of you to Galilee. You will see him there. Remember what I have told you and celebrate his resurrection with an egg, preferably chocolate, an appropriate gesture that shall become a symbol of rebirth for all eternity. He who carries the egg shall rejoice in an everlasting life ” |

With the price of Cocoa going through the roof and rising we will be lucky to see Easter eggs on the shelves next year. They will either be tiny or very expensive

It seems to be the traditional times of year that get targeted. I wonder if it's got something to do with removing the days off people have at those times. two bank holidays is too much for both....isnt it.

I think it's safe to say at this point I should be worried about the gesture watermelons the missus has bought for me this Easter then. |

If you don’t want to believe in Easter don’t celebrate it. If you dont believe in Easter but want to take part then fill your boots
But we shouldn’t change events to accommodate those that don’t celebrate them

I love this thread. There was post this time last year on “Gesture Eggs” on the Clown World thread. Nothing came of it then either.
Who knows what chocolate bunnies have to do with eternal redemption though. If Cadbury’s were to change the name it would be to make more money not to be “woke”.
