Has that not been going on for years with all the things ?
Pringles used to be 200g, for a fast example.

Price of palm oil must’ve went up..
Mondelez own Cadbury’s now, horrible American company, nestle levels of scumbags.

Ah I stopped buying Cadbury altogether. Terrible quality, and it has a horrible texture to it now. Fuck palm oil and what ever nonsense they add to it nowadays.

That’s the Americans for you. Cadbury have been on a slow decline since 2010.

I’ve a range of frozen desserts on the retail market here. Over the past year 3 of my big chain stockists have asked me to reduce the sizes of the product (with a respective reduction in cost to them) but we all know they’ll keep the price to the customer the same.
Just so you know where this pressure to shrinkflate products comes from.

Not only cadburys everyone’s doing.. Yorkies aren’t the feast they used to be . Haribo are pathetic size now aswell . Share bags are the old normal bags

Hazel mountain chocolate.

Yeah quality has really dropped over the last few years at cadbury. I used to love a bar of dairy milk, they just taste like wax now.
Are there any Irish chocolate brands that make bars that taste like old dairy milks?

Try melting it. Just clumps. Palm oil and Coco powder

It all went to shite since they got rid of the gold tin foil. Tastes like plastic on its own, and you know the quality is bad with gunk like oreos being poured into it to distract from the palm oil.

Not sure what it’s like in the republic, your normal dairy milk bars taste better than the UK market ones up here. But if you’re in the UK dairy milk isn’t even “chocolate” any more, it doesn’t have enough cocoa to legally call itself that any more and the word chocolate isn’t on the packaging, calls itself a “milk bar” or something instead. Absolute shite and not worth buying any more.

We collectively need to throw Cadburys under a bus, and start again with something else that is like how it used to be.

The best protest is to stop buying.

I can’t get past the taste of vomit on them 🙁
Thank god we have better alternatives.

It’s got some awful WAXY texture. It doesn’t even melt properly, I used to use left over cadburys from Easter in baking. Can’t do that now….

This is literally the first time anyone has ever raised this point on here

I sometimes wonder where shrinkflation stops. These bars are getting so small now that it’s not worth it

Company is owned by mondelez international, originally Kraft foods. Ever since Cadbury sold the company it’s been on a major decline 😮💨

Didn’t Hershey buy the brand a few years ago?
It’s only going to get worse across the board.

Cadbury, like most chocolate manufacturers, always have more than a few twix up their sleeves…
They did something to the Caramellos, they are shite now. The button version of the one you posted has been fuckulated also.
