Eggs are beneficial most of the time. The thing about cholesterol was
based on studies done with powdered eggs not real eggs. Actual lesson?
Powdered eggs are bad for you.

Have you ever seen this video? It's BJ Novak from the tv show, The
Office. He's on Conan O'Brien talking about the shrinking Cadbury Egg.
It's kinda funny.

I used to enjoy them back in the day, but I haven't had one in years.
They were a major indulgence.

I am sure if I tried one today, they would not be as I remember.

I am with you there Gloria. I never did like them. While they are way
too sweet I don't think they are as sweet as a Laura Secord Easter Egg,
and I have a weakness for them. It is an annual treat, but to be sliced
up and eaten a piece at a time.

They say the eggs were introduced in 1971 but I don't think I ever saw
them until the late 80's or so.

And they're not sold for 8 months out of the year (again, according to
Wiki). They are only sold between Valentines day and Easter and are
liquidated the day after Easter, which is when I buy the bulk of my
candy for the year.
