“new flavour poison”

Written on: 21/05/2012 by shugburrell (1 review written)

the new flavour in new packets to promote olympic games is absolutely poisonous and tainted the rest of the bag. I couldn't get the taste from my mouth for at least an hour and now I am psychologically scarred in case I eat another one and get that taste. What on earth have you done? These used to be my favourite sweets? I feel I should be compensated for being subject to such an horrendous taste. Am going to collect all the pink ones and send them back to company to demand they sit and eat them!!!!!!! Beware the pink sweets from hell!

I wrote to Cadbury and complained and received the following reply

'I confirm we have identified a flavour deviation for these sweets. It has affected only a very short period of production. The result is that a limited number of packs exhibit an unusual taste when compared to our standard product.

Please be assured that there is no indication that the flavour is harmful and it does not pose a food safety risk'

They are continuing to monitor each batch of the product. Oh and I got a £10 voucher refund :-)

I have purchased another bag since and with some hesitation, ate the red ones again - and they were perfect!
