Just me. Thinking thoughts, living life, figuring it out as I go along.
And, no, I don't really know what I'm talking about.

The Horror.... The Horror!
Do you see what I'm saying?
IT'S ALL SO WRONG!!!
*Dramatic sigh*
(But I ate it anyway.
I mean, it'd been opened.)

I suspect the change was done for ease of manufacture. The packaging line for the new packaging would be so much easier to run than trying to wrap the foil in the old way. Wrapping machines are very tricky to get set up and stay set up.
And yes, I did used to work for a large food manufacturer. Even though I'm an accountant, I saw enough downtime due to wrapping to know the foil packaging is a pain in the butt.
That was my best guess too E. And I like to tell myself they figured it would be more easily recyclable... and stuff. :/ I just loved the foil packaging though. And yes, the sugar was still sweet ;)
This is what happens when a US company buys a UK company. First they change the recipe for the chocolate (to a cheaper alternative), and then they change the packaging to this. Idiots.

Egg is still yummy, no?
It looks like someone jammed a blade through the middle of the egg, all magician like.
It seems wrong to me.
