The Creme Egg should be banished from the tub of Heroes immediately
THE HEROES CHOCOLATES might not have the sweet nostalgia of Roses or the star names of Celebrations – but it’s still a high quality tub of chocolates.
It has the Caramel, the Twirl, the Dairy Milk and the Fudge – all solid, delicious members of the Heroes gang.
But it also has the Creme Egg amongst its ranks, which makes absolutely no sense
Why? Well it’s consistently the least popular of the Heroes in households across Ireland
Whoops!

It’s not Easter ffs
Yes, the Creme Egg is quintessentially an Easter treat – it has no place near a box of chocolates whose most popular time is Christmas
Whoops!

When you think about it, the Creme Egg is nothing short of a festive imposter.
The public want them gone. And the fact that it’s a new addition does not help matters
Whoops!

Because Heroes without the Creme Eggs suddenly look like the best tub of chocolate out there
Whoops!

Imagine that world for a second.
You’d have to question the Creme Egg maniac that forces them on the public
Communal chocolates leave no room for specialist items like the Creme Egg
And the Eclair is not much better either. But at least it makes sense.
A major problem with Creme Eggs is that the Heroes seem to be PACKED with them
Not only do they insist on including them, they insist on there being loads of them to look at with contempt.
And most upsetting of all, loads of people think they don’t really taste like the real things
Whoops!

It could be the crucial ratio of creme/chocolate killing its chances here
This issue impacts on real life
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
And even fans of the Creme Egg don’t want it sullied by inclusion in a communal, shared box
Whoops!

The public has spoken: more Twirls
Whoops!

We’re losing the Easter uniqueness of the Creme Egg every time it’s picked out of a Heroes box in December.
The madness must stop.
