Well,

Looks like I'll have to go back to wrapping a slice of bacon round my Mars bars.... Actually, the cynical side of me says that just made it up as a ruse to get people to rush out and buy a bulk stock of the bars before they changed - pushing the profits up a little bonus.

I know a few people who did just this - went to Tescos and stocked up. Now Masterfoods have your money.

Also, Happy Birthday to maddam.

Naaa, I think they just screwed up but unlike many companies saw sense at an early stage. I'm sure it will become a case study for Management Science students within a few years!

jeremy_m's response to the news was to ask me what other chocolate he could eat instead, because obviously Mars were bad, needed to be punished, and he was probably the only ones keeping them in business.

I think he doesn't think quite like most other people.

If you're after the hit of real animal with your chocolate, Masterfoods still make rather a lot of non-veggie chocolate (http://www.guardian.co.uk/food/Story/0,,2084418,00.html). I can't wait for the limited edition fois gras Twix.
