Cadbury ditches 'new and improved' chocolate recipe - Video

i was so anrgy that cadburys look the love gene out of there chocolate, lucky for us and them they came to there senses, i have two family blocks in my fridge, two bits are missing, all i got was stomach cramps, get it to gether guys

Ernest Hilliers is one of my favourite chocolate brands, they make beautiful, rich chocolate... far better than Cadbury. There's also a new Aussie company making really good stuff with different flavours (not creams) orange, mango and chilli, for example. "Cocoa Farm" is their name.

I grew up with the "great" cadbury taste...and then OMG a different taste, how disgusting!!!! who cares if the chocoate is softer to bite??? Cruchier chocolate means better quality anyway!!!!

Gees, wake up. It is a junk food company, it simply wanted to substitute a cheaper ingredient, substituting for the lost of flavour, with that special ingredient, 'flavour' and increase it's profit margin. Funny I've looked all over the place and can not buy that particular ingredient, 'flavour' and yet I set it listed as a specific ingredient all over the place. Five percent by mass of cocoa and you can call it chocolate, so what is it that you are really buying, chocolate flavoured, solidified vegetable (of unknown varieties) oil. Unhappy now, just wait till they shift production to China so they can further increase the profit margin.

Well said Borneo Man. However the supermarket shelf next to the chocolate is full of shampoo with palm oil in it, but of course nobody in the developed world wants to give up washing their hair everyday. So if you think not buying Cadbury chocolate is helping the rain forest, forget it - this is just a convenient issue for shallow people. You will have to give up a heap more stuff than that. It makes us feel better of course, which is the most important thing (sarcasm intended). Out of sight, out of mind.

With regards to 'Kiwi Chick's' comments. I'm afraid your the one who is misinformed. I live on the island of Borneo and I see firsthand the devastation and unsustainably of this new wonder oil. Believe me there are no sustainable palm oil plantations in this region. Why do you people always accuse those who simply want to protect their land as Looney Greenies? I know I’m not; I simply want to live in a world where the environment is valued more than some Western people’s appetite for chocolate. Sure Cadbury is not the only user of this oil, but isn’t NZ a protector of its own green and clean country? Then why support the wholesale plunder of rainforests in other people’s countries? How would you like it if we ripped up your environment at about 300 hectares a day in order to place rice so that we could have cheaper ‘rice cookies’? I bet you would use the term Green Looney then. ... Oh and by the way, well down Cadbury; after it all isn't consumer happiness the first step to good business practise.

Yes it tastes like brown soap,it's a chore to eat it,almost prefer brussel sprouts. Bring back the snifters and while you're about it for god's sake go back to the original recipe for Jaffas, they are truly horrible these days, tasteless red balls!!!!

ABOUT FRIGGEN TIME! i love my chocolate, and moro bars, but nothing from cadburys tasted good once they changed the receipe.

now i can happily buy proper chocolate from them again... in like a month or so..

Now we just gotta get maggi to change their 2 minute noodles back to their original receipe and i will start buying them again.

Ive noticed that there are heaps on the shelves now shince they changed it. compared to before hand when you would be lucky to get your fave flavour of noodles, because they were always sold out.

Typical Green Loonie Brigade....

Demonising of alm Oil is very poorly founded.
It is a potential environmentally friendly miracle product.

Demonising Cadbury until it cowers shaking into submission was a ignorant victimisation of an absolute superstar Company that was one of the very Few that worried enough about the environment in the first place to search out a supply from the CERTIFIED ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY Palm Oil Supply.

The Greens Should have made them a Poster proclaiming how Good they are to commit to only buy certifed Environmentally friendly Palm Oil and then done a Shame campaign on the HUGE HUMUNGOUS majority of Palm oil we use and consume every day by outing companies that can not verify compliance.
Ibiciles!
Demonise Good environmental behaviour and do nothing about evil. Just because Cadbury was up front not hiding behind false names for it!.

That is no environmental Victory to gloat about.
This is just going to encourage other companies to not worry about seeking out certified environmentally friendly products and Hide what they are using even more.

This is called "Throwing out the Baby with the Bath Water"

Palm Oil is a Very Green Product if it is not produced Via land obtained through destroying special habitats of endangered species. Most is, so why damn that which is not??
Palm Oil is by far the most land efficient oil in the world!

You emotional and unthinking Greenies have just attacked a perfect corporate citizen and undermined your own cause.

Now no company is going to care whether Palm oil used is from a e-friendly source or not.
Now no Palm oil producer is going to try to find a place in the world it can grow Palm oil without ruining the environment because the effort would be useless as the Very efficient product has been demonised rather than the growing locations.
Now you have undermined the Green buyer from supporting the Green manufacturer to support the environment.
Congratulations!!...NOT!!

The taste plus a smaller block put me off, not sure if i will go back.
