Cadbury's chocolate has changed.

I have eaten chocolate all my life, like many of us do every day. But, recently, Cadbury's chocolate have changed the ingrediants. Well, only a couple, but the taste is certainly different.

Much darker tasting.

But, the only real test, is to compare them.

I have and it is really a problem to me and I shall tell you the change.

I have two packets of Cadbury's Snack in front of me.

They changed the design of the packets too, but the chocolate is the real change.

All of the above information, may be hard to understand? Especially as I am talking about Shortcake as well as Chocolate.

But, the main changes are,

Skimmed milk & Butter Fat being removed.

This has really changed the taste significantly. It is now, much darker in taste and that great recipe from the past, is now no more.

I looked at the Cadbury's chocolate website and went to their site-map and eventually found the information I was looking for.

But, I sent them an e-mail, but they didn't give anything away with their reply to me. All they said, was, send the product back to them and they will give me my money back, etc.. I didn't bother, naturally..

This is what is happening to our foods and they are trying to help people's health, as "butterfats" are not good for us.

Unfortunately, as many people are suing companies, for so many things today. Cadburys must have recognised this and made this change and have sacrificed taste over health

But it is a shame, that the chocolate is different now. The taste has changed and it is darker and I have compared and it is true.
