"Christianity is not shameful. It is not offensive." Kentucky Girl
"Grant here. Easter used to be one of those things brands didn’t have to explain or justify. It’s a classic Christian holiday that was understood, named, and marketed as exactly what it was. But now, in this day in age, where Christianity has become taboo, so have the famous brands like Cadbury, and as a result, they’re abandoning their Christian roots. Let’s break it down.
"Cadbury is basically known in a majority of Western society as the classic chocolate Easter egg. You really can’t say “Cadbury” without immediately thinking about Christianity’s most important holiday. But now Cadbury is going through what seems to be a bit of an identity crisis, and now you walk into a store and see their displays, something fundamental has shifted.
"As shown in this X post, the word “Easter” has now quietly become “This Season.” The chocolate eggs are still there. That hasn’t changed. But they’re clearly watering down the Christianity factor big time." . . .
Fact Check: Cadbury did not remove the word Easter from its holiday range | Reuters "Photos of Cadbury’s range of chocolate eggs have disproven online claims that the British confectioner erased the word Easter from its packaging ahead of the Christian holiday.
"Posts making the false claim of the same three products – captured by Reuters on March 26 - show “Happy Easter” is printed on the top of the packaging. This angle is not visible in the social media image.
"Cadbury maker Mondelez International said in an email to Reuters: “Cadbury has used the word Easter in our marketing and communications for over 100 years and continue to do so with our new Easter product range. To claim anything otherwise is factually incorrect.”
