eating Cadbury Eggs is never recommended in any event, under any circumstance. They are disgusting.

That reminds me of a joke:

A penguin was driving down the road one day when his car broke down -- lots of smoke everywhere. He had it towed to the nearest service station where the mechanic told him he'd have a prognosis in about 30 minutes.

It was very hot out and the penguin, being a penguin, needed to cool off. Across the street was an ice cream stand. He went over and bought a bowl of vanilla ice cream and went to town. Again, being a penguin, and not having opposable thumbs, he was a bit messy with eating his ice cream.

Looking up at the clock on the wall, he realized that 30 minutes had gone by, so he ran back across the street to the mechanic. Mechanic looked up from the car and said, "Looks like you blew a seal."

And the penguin said: "It's vanilla ice cream!!!"

What does eating a Cadbury Egg in the dark look like?

@2 - agreed! I can't believe the black licorice queen has meddled in such nonsense. It's a freaking egg. With a candy yolk.

Because if you're one of the lucky few that actually gets an egg with drippy innards, all you can do is feel the sticky liquid dripping down?
yeah I'm jealous.

Someone gave me one for my birthday and I found it in my purse while starving in the middle of 17 Again last night.

Miss some foil? Damn stuff clings to the eggs and just goes to shreds when you try to unwrap it...

I've almost lost hope waiting for pro-lifers to notice that the savior's birth is being commemorated by teaching children to enjoy candy embryos. If that's not worth a good boycott, nothing is. They could cross-promote it with PETA. Maybe next year.

I bet the filling glows in the dark, is why.

It's all in the technique.

Bite, suck, swish, swirl and swallow. Repeat.

I've noticed that very few people are of the "take it or leave it" camp when it comes to Cadbury eggs. People either love the hell out of them or can't stand the thought of ever eating one. Cadbury eggs are a clearly divisive subject.

@3 - HAW HAW HAW (I really did LOL at my computer)

...and I'm definitely on the side of "do not eat Cadbury creme eggs ever." To be fair, I should say "ever again." That's how I know they're gross.

@8 - Sorry to have to point out, but I am a PK (preacher's kid) and would be remiss in my "training" to fail to mention: Easter isn't so much about his birth, but about his death and the two days following. Christmas is about his birth.

But really, I agree - all of the trappings of Easter seem really disjointed from what Easter is supposed to mean to Fundies. But then, what are you supposed to turn into sugery crap - empty holes?
