I've just placed my annual order for the Easter choc-fest. Proper Cadbury's buttons egss for the kids, etc. There has been no mention of any issues regarding supply from the place I order from - they are expecting their next import delivery at the end of the month....and lots of Cadbury's stuff in it.

I hope!!!!!

I know Hershey are on the right side of the law, but they have been for many years, so why do this now.

I'm boycotting Hershey, No more Dairy Milks, Caramello's, Creme eggs, Mini Eggs, Kit Kats, or Reeses Pieces.

Read the labels and buy Chocolate from their Competition, Thats what I will be doing, Mars and Nestles will get my dollars.

When Haloween rolls around I wont buy Hershey, I will never buy anything made by Hershey again...

Youve got to send them a message, Lost sales and $$$$$ is all these companies understand.

You spoil that boy! Why don't you eat them all and bring back the empty wrappers and tell him how much you enjoyed them.

If "chocolate" is on the invoice it will most likely be flagged by Customs.
My shipment was held and the invoice re-written by the brokers containing some quite creative descriptions before it was cleared.

They should have a warning on the wrapper.
