If I ate all those Creme Eggs, a jobbie pool would be the least of my worries.

I eat 1 and feel like I am going to get type 2 diabetes. I can't imagine 200,000.

I think more than ten gives you Type 3 diabetes (which is 1 and 2).

My wife loves creme eggs, I insist that they taste like sugar paste and have no discernable flavor beyond being too sweet

They used to be so much better. Ever since Kraft bought out Cadbury the quality of chocolate has dropped so much. I don't bother buying these anymore.

It's frustrating how much I agree with your opinion, but also disagree with it when I actually have, but not yet consumed, a Cadbury creme egg.

If he'd been called Jobby Pool it could have been prophetic of what happened if he ate his stash.

So what was his plan to do with so many eggs had his thievery been successful? Is there a thriving black market for dodgy crème eggs?

Possible a collaboration with this guy?

One should give him a price - these things are pure diabetes type 2.
