Good grief! All I can say is that I have no problem with the word "Easter" being omitted. To many Christians, Easter isn't about chocolate eggs anyway, although they're always welcome. Laughing

Pathetic.
I hadn't noticed, but looking online at the most popular eggs of 2016 I notice EASTER has been left off quite a few of the front packaging on various brands.

Well Victor I also fail to see what stuffing our faces with Chocolate has got to do with human sacrifice as well??? And then raising human bodies from the dead, ie Zombies.

Maybe they could do a film

Cadbury's Cream Egg of the Living dead?
