I’ve seen some pretty distasteful MLK Day ads, but this one…

It’s somehow even worse in the original email. It has a little animation of the chocolates jumping into Dr. King’s mouth.

      I’m in the US. We don’t get most of the Cadbury stuff here, and what we do get (mostly Creme Eggs and Mini Eggs, sometimes Dairy Milk bars) is made by Hershey under license so it’s kinda crap.

      Unless, of course, you get it from an importer like World Market or these guys. Though I don’t think I’ll be buying from these guys in the future.

        THAT’S WHY THEY SUCK NOW? I used to love these things as a kid… I still usually buy 1 eqch year, knowing I’ll regret it, which I consistently do.

          Easy: fly across the ocean, purchase a few sweets, fly back. If you take your private jet over, you can be there and back in a single day.
