Mmm Cadmium Eggs are my favorite
How did you get two down votes for that joke. That was brilliant
Inaccurate. Hershey doesn't make Cadbury.
Unfortunately for Hershey, they only have license to use the Cadbury brand name in the USA and for specific products only. In fact, Cadbury Creme Eggs sold in the USA are made in Canada by Mondelez, who actually owns Cadbury. Second in fact, if you read past the headline of the AI written article you supplied you'll also find that Mondelez owns Cadbury. Then Hershey, then Cadbury, then Mondelez, but holy shit I don't think you could have picked a worse article to try and prove you are right in an internet argument. I'm not even sure AI wrote this shit.
Sources: https://www.cadburyusa.com/about Fourth FAQ question, last sentence regarding Creme Eggs. https://nunuchocolates.com/the-impact-of-hersheys-acquisition-of-cadbury-on-the-chocolate-industry/ seventh paragraph, under the photo of guy who doesn't really look like he loves cocoa.
Whoever owns them, they used to be awesome but now they suck, proving that progress isn't only upwards.
That I will agree with.
