Target sold the creme egg (and crunchie) cookies last year as well - they are quite nice. Because Mondelez now have worldwide rights for Cadbury branded cookies/biscuits Hershey have no say whatsoever over what they decide to sell in the USA, and a good thing too!

They say "mini eggs" but the picture is a 34g egg.
13 lbs would be about 170 34g eggs.
So are they saying 300 mini eggs? Pass =(

I need real help. I walked into my office kitchen this morning and smelt toast. Not this crappy American bread toast. Like pure Warburtons/Hovis or something. Anyone have any idea where I can find some real, thick sliced bread?? I live close to Kansas City MO, not against ordering online but worried about sell by dates!

Well, Walmart have this which is like an unhealthy white British loaf (i.e. no sugary taste, but kind of plastic doughy). Sometimes hits the spot. When I lived in Connecticut, the local British store used to have frozen Brennans (Irish) bread that was pretty good. Looks like it's available online.

Yeah, I've had the Walmart stuff and some similar "English toasting bread" from two other local supermarkets but they are not what I need in my life haha.

Why didn’t you do some sleuthing when you smelled the bread you liked?

Probably looking for an Italian loaf. Wegmans, do a nice one, so does Panera.

What is an Italian loaf? A type of bread, a sandwich, or a cold cut?

I don't know about the US, Rete, but in Australia an 'Italian loaf' is a wonderful loaf of 'proper' bread, oval in shape and with a lovely crust. It's my favourite!
