I'm waiting until 9am, then I will telephone C*db*ry!!

Christmas stocking with chocolates............ 3 small chocolate frogs left........last night I felt like some choccy, so ate them....... well, I ate two of them

Unwrapped the third frog....... wossat? It's moving!!!! It was a MAGGOT!!!!!!!!!

Did I eat maggots in the other two choc frogs? ewwwwwwwww Were there any in the rest of the chocolate in the stocking?

The wrappers and the maggot are in a ziplock bag....... I'll send it to C*db*ry!

I've had maggots in their chocolate before now - a chocolate flake and a Roses chocolate -

:-0 :-0 eeewwwwwww

check your white bread as that can have little grubs after a few days when its warm,,,,,,, :-D :-D


LS no wonder you been seeing things,,,,,,you've been eating Magic Maggots,,,,,,, ;-) :-D :-D :-D.

xtra protein, ask Mr Grylls.......

phoned them...

a recorded message........." Our office hours are Mon-Fri 9am to 5pm"

but...... if you are calling regarding a "sensitive" issue, please press 1

Are maggots sensitive? hmm...... I feel "sensitive" after eating them :-(

Listened to music for a couple of minutes, then got a representative.

She took my details, and the info about the maggoty frogs (I still have the wrapping, including the barcode & use by date).

Someone will get back to me.

I hope they're not flesh eating maggots......ewwwww, I feel queasy.

:-(

Familiar ?

:-S

very familiar! :-0

I'm not making jokes about moving rice for a while.

that means flies must 've infested the product somewhere along the line......?? :-|

yup.

I like chocolate........... but I think I'll be giving it a miss for a while.

Definitely won't eat it anywhere I don't have good light.

We opened the Christmas stocking on Wednesday evening........ I wonder how many maggots we've eaten??

barf :-(

chocolate in a hot climate ... maybe not a great idea

Cadburys are dead and buried they exist only as a logo for the products of an evil USA food conglomerate. Be happy that the maggots are at least natural protein. Nothing natural about the rest.

If anybody knows of a close substitute for Bournville almond chocolate please post.

Karob?

melt it and pour it over almonds

:-D

Ah you have them bang to rights they say their product is suitable for vegetarians!

Reckon at least £100,000 for the stress and upset it has caused to you infringing you life choices, and breaches of hygiene codes, mind you I would steer clear of a lifetime supply they might simply liquidise the creepy crawlies and serve you up a special batch ;-)

Expect to see you in the Daily Mail looking sad and holding up the maggot any day soon soon ;-)

I remember biting into a cream slice and finding a dead wasp Ugg!

Had something similar many years ago and all I got was a booklet of the chocolate fly!!!

there's a beetle that invades the chocolate bean crop and that is usually the source of maggots in the product

similarly with tinned tomatoes - you can find a caterpillar in a tin - they are endemic in the production of tomatoes which are to be canned

You should try some of these

yum! :-D

I didn't think it would be possible.......

but I'm going off chocolate

:-(

The on-line BBC news - features and magazine - has a useful article called "The 30-day worms, crickets and cockroach diet" - sorry I couldn't find a hyperlink

I'm sure I read that most chocolate has insect bodyparts, legs etc in it.

Still better than reading about someone eating fries in the cinema that bit on something odd that really freaked them out..........partly cooked mouse!! I stick to my peanut butter cup icecream.

Not Cadbury's, but many years ago I returned a chocolate product which contained a 'maggot'.
The firm informed me it was a cocoa moth larva and sent a complimentary box of more chocolate bars.

I was just glad that I'd found it in daylight and not eaten the bar at the cinema without looking at the contents.
