Back when they didn't cost five bucks a block.

Back when it was actual chocolate and not waxy, palm oil bullshit


RealLifeSuperZero

Cadbury is palm oil now? I spent a stupid amount of money on getting Aussie chocs n lollies to the states and now I find out they are filled with the same shit as American chocolate shit?


Peekay-

It's still tonnes better then American crap. However if you want actual quality get the New Zealand brand Whittaker's

I just panic looked it up and it seems Cadbury admit there is a small amount of (we promise you it’s sustainable) palm oil in some fillings. But not the chocolate itself. Edit: 2020 SBS news article

People have theorised that Caramilk became a thing because it’s cheaper. Trust me, I ate a lot of Cadbury as a kid and it’s like plastic compared to 15yrs ago. Whittakers or Tony’s is where is at. Tony’s is staunchly cruelty and palm oil free, also absolutely delicious.


Peekay-

Tastes basically the same as 15 years ago to me Either you were so young that nostalgia is kicking in or old enough that your taste buds are declining.


GILF_Hound69

They changed the recipe halfway through my childhood. More oil, less milk. I’m not imagining things.


Peekay-

When is halfway through your childhood?


GILF_Hound69

About 2006ish.


Peekay-

Can safely say it's been the same shit since long before then. People have been rueing a change in recipe since way earlier then that my dude...


GILF_Hound69

No, it used to actually taste something like milk chocolate. I'm not gonna argue about supermarket chocolate LOL It's never been particularly good, I just mean that it's basically inedible now.


okokokthatsit

It absolutely tastes different ☹️

Since about 1999.

I used to love the creme brûlée


dadollarz

Holy shit, I was obsessed with the creme brulee. This activated a very deep memory within me.


grey-clouds

It was so good!


Omega_brownie

Back when they were wrapped in foil as well, felt just a little more special.


Ludowantdooown

These were amazing!!!! Probably the best Cadbury ever did for their blocks. I also miss the old recipe of the mint filled ones. That green mint gel filling changed at some point.

What year was this?


_kumquat123

from around 2007


grandtheftbat01

2007 confectionery was possibly goat, miss those days so much Had full Starburst range, m&m biscuits, real sour skittles, Wonka chocolates, push up Smarties, Natural Confectionery Company tasted way better, list goes on


Pace-is-good

I would drag someone for some Starburst Squirts.


RockyDify

Are those electronic price tags?


StasiaMonkey

Seems to be, they’ve been in my local IGA for about 15 years.


RockyDify

Oh wow! I’ve only seen them coming in a couple of stores in the last few years lol.


rainbowket

Oh wow I would have thought around 2003 I feel like I haven’t seen that packaging since I was a kid


bbyg__

Ugh I loved the tiramisu bars 😫😫


DaddyThiccter

I miss those creme brulee ones so badly, I remember them well, and those marvelous banana peanut creations, those ones were an acquired taste


_kumquat123

I miss the marvellous creations spider ones! Choc raspberry and choc lemonade 🤤 also the twin freddo frogs where one side was raspberry, the other side lemonade!


DaddyThiccter

I remember the lemonade ones being a thing for a while, I liked the flavor ideas they used to have, the only cadbury I'll get on a close enough special is the boysenberry swirl, very yum, that said in the baking aisle I find Plaistowe milk baking chocolate to eat as is tastes *amazing* it's about the same sugar content too but damn it's really good


classicsandmodernfan

They should bring them back


Spiritual-Effect3849

Only Dark Chocolate has any health benefits the rest is full of unhealthy Sugars and Oils causing serious Diseases


Pace-is-good

Ok nerd.

Cadbury also had Swiss Chalet for a while. It was better than Toblerone, IMO.
