i think they have got smaller. or certainly did one year. a guest on jay lenno or conan proved it a couple of years ago i seem to remember. i'm sure i dont see them all year round though, but they are very nice. the mini ones never taste as good to me though.

OK I had to look it up

When first introduced in Britain, the original Cadbury Creme Egg weighed 40 grams (1.4 oz) and contained 171.6 calories.[1] Cadbury Creme Eggs sold in the UK and Canada have remained at this size, but those sold by Hershey's in the United States have decreased in size since their introduction - before 2006 they are listed with a weight of 39 grams,[2] while today they are listed at 34 grams.

During an interview on the April 4th, 2007 episode of Late Night with Conan O' Brien, actor B. J. Novak drew attention to the fact that American market Cadbury Creme Eggs have decreased in size from previous years, despite the claim on the Cadbury's website FAQ that the eggs were not getting smaller, but rather, "you've just grown up!"[1] The site has since been updated to clarify that only American eggs have altered in size.[1]

...and Feasts, Magnums, [insert other confectionery]...

That's a bit of a sweeping statement Bungle.

No it's not. Wagon Wheels are infamous for everyone thinking they were larger when they were a kid. There's even a piece about this phenomenon on their Wikipedia page.

Wagon wheels are one item of confectionery that lots of people claim were larger when they were younger, not the only item.

I didn't say there were the only item, but they are the most renowned for it.

I hope they're not really planning on calling them 'Kraftbury' eggs. I guess this also means we wont be seeing those quirky Cadbury ads anymore either...

As it happens, wagon wheels are the ones I remember being most renowned for being bigger way back then. However, that means nothing, as I have friends who claim other confectionery is much more renowned for this. Yet again, you are using your opinion as fact.
