I liked Chicory coffee…I drank it when the kids were young as it was the cheapest coffee on the shelves…I couldn’t drink it now though I don’t think. 
The Vegans (I think I’ve seen one on Star Trek, BTW) won’t like that.
That link is a very interesting example of ‘wokery’, in which attempts are made to change the perception of true historical events in order to avoid upsetting certain people!

We shouldn’t expect anything else from the BBC teamed up with The British Museum. Never let the down to earth truth get in the way of their combined twisted interpretations of the past🤬

I value the BBC very highly, and just ignore the elements in it that I don’t like.

I never liked Cadbury chocolate especially not dairy milk. Almost as bad as Hershey stuff. That’s the pits but then I never had a sweet tooth ever. The one exception is proper Israeli style halva. My old mum used to make it from time to time.
I agree. I have never bought Cadbury’s ‘chocolate’ since it became American. Nothing personal. It just doesn’t taste the same as it used to, but then Americans have different tastes to us.

Cakes don’t bother me I can watch friends eating it and I can enjoy my coffee . Sweets, well if there are any lying around I would prob eat half the bag , depends what sweets . Now crisps, walkers plain , I’ve been known to buy the 6 pack and eat three bags in one day, I love the crunch and salty taste on my tongue .
Rich tea biscuits , and ginger biscuits lush
I remember seeing a good many comments just like yours when Cadbury was bought out. I also remember Cadbury stating it hadn’t made any changes at all to its formulation or ingredients. One thing that DID change was the shape of the Dairy Milk blocks - instead of being truncated pyramids, they had more rounded tops. This was done to reduce the weight of the bars but to keep the price the same (shrink-flation). I have to say that I haven’t noticed any difference in the taste but I have greatly reduced my chocolate intake because I found too much will trigger my migraines especially if its dark chocolate.
Not if you are of muslim persuasion - beef and/or beef products are not halal unless the beast has been ritually slaughtered and if cadbury are endorsing that - they have just lost a customer!

I’ve never really had much of a sweet tooth. Not keen on a lot of sugary, sweet stuff.
Can’t remember when I last ate a sweet of any sort, and the only cake I am partial to is Lemon Drizzle. Never ate a trifle or gateau in me life.
I have just made a banana cake !
We only like underripe bananas so if they go overripe I freeze them for banana cake .
Kitkat I’m never without a Kitkat .
