Because I love BJ Novak and hate when candy companies fuck with proportions ...

Cadbury creme eggs are smaller than they used to be.

You know, I hadn't noticed it visually, but I sure did feel like the filling disappeared faster than normal.

I think the only reason I noticed this was because I could actually get an entire egg in my mouth, and I couldn't before. DUHN DUHN DUHN.

(You've gotten bigger. SHEESH, Cadbury!)

Oh that's just perfect. I love that he called them out like that. Very nice. Because seriously, man. You can't mess with candy sizes unless its to make it BIGGER.

How dare they mess with the Cadbery Egg like that!

I know they invented it, but why go and change it like this? It makes no sense at all.

You know what they're doing, right? They're making them smaller so that in a few years they can market a "super sized" one (which will actually be the original size) and charge $3 for it.

Oh, they'll come forward first with some statement about how they made them smaller in accordance with some "Concern for the health of Americans" or somesuch nonsense, but just imagine it: in 2010, right there on the shelf alongside "mini dozen" and "Cadbury Caramel"... "Cadbury Eagle Egg".

Just wait. It'll happen.
