Come to New Zealand. They're the same size this year as they always
were.

Why they would like about it is beyond me!

Pretty stupid of them.

I'm glad that I don't care much for them anyway.
They are WAY too sweet.

I don't like the regular ones. I bought the caramel ones..haven't tried
them yet. Mostly I'm just happy with a Russell Stover bunny and my
ever present Mon Cheri.

Their products had Salmonella and they hid it for weeks

I don't need to watch a ****in' video, lol.....I can see with my own
eyes at the store that they are smaller (at least here in the United
States). Like, duh and stuff.

I have to say I never noticed it... but looking at one now it's
obvious! I only like the caramel ones and last year when I had some I
thought they were too much of a good thing, but this year they were
just the right amount - I'm not suddenly greedier, they shrank
considerably!
