You can buy Cadbury cream eggs at San Francisco drug stores during the spring, Lizzie. They are only sold then, because they are an Easter product. They come in multicolored foil wrap, are about the size of a real egg, and are usually kept on the counter at the cash register, for some reason. I don't think it is because they are heavily shoplifted, but you never know. I would guess they are fairly fragile, and worthless if dropped or handled heavily. Cadbury is an English brand. It is huge in Ireland. Since I only like dark chocolate, Ireland was like a wasteland to me. There is no dark chocolate at all. But they have black currant everything, including black currant juices and flavored bubbling waters, shortbread cookies with black currants in them, and even black currant cough drops with liquid centers. I suspect there are several junk-candy genes. My daughter does not like marshmallow "peeps" at all at Easter, probably because when she was little I always got her See's candy only. Well, the Easter Bunny did, that is. When I tried to introduce her to peeps as a young teenager, she didn't like them at all. At the moment she is very much into getting an Oreo McFlurry at McDonald's and dipping her fries into it. I never say anything at all about this because I think she is just trying to get a reaction from me.
