I have absolutely no idea what you are asking.
I live in the USA, if it has anything to do with that.

Ah yes. People became fat as a direct result of large creme eggs existing. All over America--and the rest of the world, even, the average waist size gradually, almost imperceptibly, expanded. The mysterious radiation emitted by these famed treats plumped folk across the globe by there mere presence...
No. People made themselves fat by chewing on these things irresponsibly.

I love how the your argumentation works. Just look up the country in someones profile and then "OMG!! GERMAN! IT MUST BE A NAZI!!!!" And you are right: Hitler hated chocolate eggs because he only had one egg...

You missed the point, and I doubt he even checked your profile. In English, Nazi is used as slang for someone who is controlling, overbearing, etc.. He was simply objecting to government trying to control people's consumption practices for their own benefit.

My generation grew up into healthy, non-overweight adults. Twenty years later, things have changed.
THEN:
--Walking to and from school (1 hour per day x 5 days per week)
--Recess time (30 minutes before school, 2 x 15-minute breaks, 30 minutes at lunchtime = 1.5 hours x 5 days per week)
--P.E. (30 minutes of high-intensity activity x 5 days per week)
--Playing outside with friends from after school until sundown (an average of 4.5 hours x 5 days per week)
--Playing outside with friends on the weekends (9 hours x 2 days per week)
TOTAL HOURS SPENT IN PHYSICAL ACTIVITY PER WEEK: 5 + 7.5 + 2.5 + 26.5 + 18 == 59.5
NOW:
--Bus or car ride to school (no exercise)
--Recess (15 minutes + 30 minute lunch == 45 minutes x 5 days per week)
--P.E. (30 minutes of low- to moderate-intensity x 5 days per week)
--Playing videogames and/or watching cartoons after school (virtually no exercise)
--Playing inside with friends on weekends (virtually no exercise)
TOTAL HOURS SPENT IN PHYSICAL ACTIVITY PER WEEK: 2.25 + 2.25 == 4.5
Kids, today, are eating better (nutritionally) than my generation did, and my generation ate better than the previous generation, yet the general population continue to blame the obesity of today's kids on food, as if over-eating was our problem. Our problem isn't our soft bellies, but rather our soft heads. We are becoming a nation of "pillows," where struggle and hardship and difficulty are to be shunned in favor of being herded whichever way our government points us and mindlessly consuming whatever crap they give us. The real question is whether or not we will wake up before we are led to slaughter.

Actually a lot of schools cut recess and P.E. completely, along with after-school activities other than basketball and football; tennis, swimming, and others were cut unless you live in a district flush with cash.
Also, while you can say that today's kids eat better nutritionally, I'd say that the increased dependence on processed foods, antibiotics in the milk/meat, steroids in the milk/meat, etc., has ensured that they actually aren't better off at all - in fact, they are worse off.
I will agree with you on your last point however, having a fairly easygoing lifestyle has softened not only the younger generations in the U.S.A., but in other countries too and now we are reaping the economic whirlwind as other countries that have traditionally had it worse off move fairly aggressively to pick up the slack.

I live near Cadburys and love them, but yes, the slow size change in the creme eggs, is disappointing... although I can go to the cheap shop they have on site and get 40 of them for like 1$

Just mentioning the creme egg factor as its the topic. I once bought a case of 50x230g dairy milk bars for about 2$, man I was sick of the sight of chocolate before I even finished that case...
Also stop living on the bad side of the city and come to to nice side for once

1- Tigers are good persons, but they get easily offended, expect a painful death
2- Shipping is related to size and weight of the package, so, you can still get cheap stuff

It would cost around 50-70$ to ship anything over 1.5kg to the USA sadly, tried looking before

I've never heard of creme eggs. I like Cadbury though - especially the Albany and Bournville dark chocolate slabs. but Lindt is the best. Or maybe Côte d'Or. One of those two.

Eat some german Ritter Sport Schoko&Keks and then compare the two. There's just no way. Ritter Sport > any american stuff that's way, way too sweet.

"I bit into you, I ate your insides...your delicious delicious insides. But, that was long ago in a time that can no longer be. You are gone, replaced by your foul, mutated brother." - Socrates #2 (Socrates twin brother)
Oh Cadbury, what have you done! Your experiments have created a monster, one that is neither tasty or large. You turned the creme egg into an abomination. The creme egg was once the supreme egg that could fit in your hand, filled with creme that you could well..er...stick your tongue into. Now it is as small as a walnut filled with a chocolate brick with very little creme. WHY?! WHY DID YOU NEED TO CHANGE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CHOCOLATE EVER CREATED? WHY?!
P.S. First world problems.
