It's not really a problem - some supermarkets are stocking other brands that are much cheaper.
Now that Cadbury are an American company their marketing will be increasingly targeted in that direction.

The next "outrage" will be when Cadbury stop making the cream eggs when they discover that the Lidl and Aldi ones are outselling theirs.

I hate takeovers, it's the beginning of the end IMO.

A nice sausage maker that made sausages I grew up on was bought by George Weston Foods. No more sausages. Haven't had one like them for 15 years. :blubber:
