Or a bit of both?

You've got bigger.

Confectionary manufacturers begin by reducing the size of their products a little at a time. Then people notice and they put their prices up, restoring the original size.

Creme eggs remind me of our Prime Minister.

Brown and full of snot.

I'll be in the cloakroom.

Didnt walkers do something similar and then brought out the slightly larger bag?

An old joke (when creme eggs were cheaper)......

Q. What's the difference between an Essex girl and a creme egg?

A. You can lick a creme egg out for 10p.

Have you got that the right way round?

Walkers only ever seem to do "fat bags" now. You can't get what used to be considered a "standard" size bag of crisps anywhere for love or money. And they say our kids are getting fatter, I wonder why.

An Essex girl will also lick all the creme off your finger.

You are wanting Seabrook crisps. A reet proper gobful.

And they don't taste like a high street doughnut van's stale oil like Walker's do.

And there's no dodgy additives.
