I could but this behaviour predates that by some margin.
I'd honestly rather buy generic flakes from nearer to home.

Dairy milk is still made in Birmingham
That's probably why it's crap...
Although to be fair, I think Cadbury changed the recipe a while back so it will now always be dissapointing to eat.

I know the 'b' problem is always a heated debate, but on this occasion I don't think that is the culprit here
don't forget back at the start of last centry, they were producing chocolate in tasmania, and a few years ago they did move production from poland to birmingham.

however if the quality of the product has gone down, blame the american owners, who have obviously cut corners to save money
.... or maybe the people of birmingham can explain?

They’re not interested in making chocolate, they’re too busy cooking Balti’sI know the 'b' problem is always a heated debate, but on this occasion I don't think that is the culprit here

Flakes aren't made in Brummagem they're made in Egypt of all places. Ice cream vendors aren't happy they just crumble to dust in the boxes some are even switching to german made alternatives
Foreign-made Cadbury Flakes are now too flakey for a 99
Ice cream van owners say the chocolate sticks are now ‘wrecked’ and which impacted sales as customers are ‘quite picky’

Blame Mondelez they obviously don't care about the brand they're even trying to push their Hershey bars in supermarkets you know the ones that taste like vomit

Someone gave me a toffeecrisp the other day and it was horrible, nothing like what they used to be, its like they'ed made it a cheap as possible, i ended up throwing it away. So thats another chocbar ruined.
More cost cutting if you ask me, tweaking recipes to make them as cheap as possible, seems to conincide with a relocation of production.

Worst idea selling a chocolate company to the Americans, they have no idea how to make good chocolate. We should have nationalised Cadbury
I quite like Ghirardelli chocolate. It's nothing like the terrible excuse for chocolate that is Hersheys.
Money. The blame lies with Cadbury's and the great sellout, not on Mondelez.

How can you compare a dirty old crumbly flake with crappy Cadbury's chocolate the smoothness and fabulousness of a galaxy ripple.
Go lay your head down mate
