Smaller chocs for all.

Neil will breathe easy as long as they don’t reduce the serving size of Cadbury’s Creme Eggs.

I don't think most kids care about the serving size. If they can't buy a kingsize choco bar, they will likely buy two smaller bars. My favorite time for candy is coming up though, the after Halloween candy sales!

But if the smaller size bars are the same price as the king size…!

Kids are not stupid. I still remember a story of when my brother went to a store and bought three pieces of candy as separate purchases, because if he had bought them all at once, he would have paid two cents more because of the tax. One alone was cheap enough that the tax would not round up to a full penny on it, but three together was two cents more than singly. I think he was 10 at the time. When he came up to the register with the third one, the cashier realized what he was doing and told him she did not think what he was doing was legal but she could not stop him.

As long as the smaller-size bars do not exceed the serving size of the king-sized bar, I think is the argument.

I wish my government could trust its citizens to make their own decisions.
