I remember trying one of those Cadbury eggs after someone raved about them. The shell wasn't too bad, I like Cadbury's chocolates, but the inside was the stuff of nightmares - pure liquid sugar. I was so nauseous afterwards that I haven't had one since. According to the Cadbury site, one 1.2 oz egg has 150 calories, 4g of saturated fat (that's 20% of USRDA), 10mg of sodium and 20g of sugar. Sugar is not an essential element of the human diet, so there is no USRDA for it, but some organizations have published guidelines, such as the American Heart Association via livestrong.com:  The American Heart Association recommends men limit added sugar to 36 grams, or 9 teaspoons, per day. Women should limit added sugar to 24 grams, or 6 teaspoons, each day.  So imagine you're a little kid, and you scarf down a few of these eggs. If you're loading Easter baskets with these things, you may as well throw in a few syringes of insulin while you're at it.
