  • Cadbury share packs are going from 200g per pack to 180g per pack with the same number of pieces inside. Not even big enough to be called fun size anymore, much like myself ;)

    • Now new bite size.

      I like this. Slightly less calories in each is better for me. Of course, they should make them smaller and increase from 12 in a pack to 14 rather than ripping us off this way!

  • Got these at Woolworths Gungahlin for $1.40 each

    Would not touch any cadbury product unless it was free. They are all halal certified.. meaning that a bit of your money is going to one of a number of islamic councils, to further promote islam in Australia and overseas. If you feel like supporting companies that do this, then this is a great deal.. If you don't agree with supporting this, show it with your money.. don't buy halal certified products. Cadbury i think is ashamed of supporting the push of islam in Australia, so these days they dont even let their consumers know by clearly showing the halal certified symbol. They choose to respect 2% of Australians, and ignore the rest of the 98%.

      What is with this fear of halal certified products? I asked a bunch of you nutters for proof of why it should be boycotted and instead got a bunch of replies back saying I was just a troll, that I would rot in hell, etc. Back your claims up with something other than stupidity and fear of the other.
      Promoting Islam my arse- have yet to see any ads taken out.

      • Sure, I agree with people finding out more about it, and making their own minds up.

        My issue with halal certified products, is that 98% of non Muslims are forced to pay a fee (based on the fact that companies will pass on the costs to produce an item, on to the consumer), to assist to further the religious beliefs of the 2% Muslims. These fees are not $10 here or there.. Its actually very hard to obtain any figures from any of the certifiers, however a company that disclosed that figure, it was $20,000 per month (for a chicken supplier).

        Now the question is where does this money go in Australia? And how much are we talking about? Again none of the certifies want to disclose the money they receive. nor where they spend it, however from papers I have seen, it goes to funding Mosques in Australia, funding Islamic Schools, and some have even publicly said that they send money to Syria via a Proxy company, so that they do not get questioned.

        And the other problem I have, is that to be halal certified, any animal killed, must be killed in an islamic fashion (which lets say is a bit more barbaric compared to what we used to do), however it needs to be blessed in the name of Allah, buy a islamic person.

        It is against the religion of many, for example Hindu's to eat food blessed in another gods name. It is not against a muslims religion to eat food that is not halal certified. In actual fact if you go to Islamic countries, and ask them what halal certification means, they would have no idea. So why is 98% of the Australians, paying a fee that not only dont they care about, but its highly likely they will oppose if they know what it was.

        • Wouldn't food in Islamic countries already be halal though? The certification simply shows they prayed before they slaughtered the animal. All animals killed in Aus have to follow the same rules- the animals are stunned before being killed for both halal and non-halal meat.
          Do you have a link for the companies that have gone public in announcing them sending money to Syria?
          And this fee that we might be paying- in this case the Cadbury box is $2. How much of the fee is being passed to the consumer- 1c? 2c? 0.25c?

        • @enidan:

          there is a big difference between halal food, and halal certified food. I have no issues with halal food.. Money spend on halal food is not going to an islamic council. If halal certification were paid for by the islamic communities, i would have less issues with it as well (besides the killing in the name of Allah).. but the halal certification is a way for non muslims (98% in australia) to line the pockets of muslims (2%). Where that money goes is even more interesting.. and if they had nothing to hide, why would they not openly disclose the fees, they charge and where its going.

        • @tsandu:
          So the companies are not disclosing the fees nor where it's going, but you know that it's going towards the pockets of all Muslims in Australia (you stated it goes towards the 2% of Aus's Muslim population). So my Muslim optometrist is getting paid by one or all of the many halal certification companies in Australia simply because he's Muslim? That's pretty neat actually.

          @enidan:

          The money goes towards things such as mosques, Islamic schools etc .. facilities and services used only by Islamic people, which are 2% of aust. Some have even stated they send some money to Syria through a proxy company, so not to raise any suspicion from the authorities. Anyway i can see you know whats going on.. so this is my last reply.. if you truly want more info you can easily search and find out. as long as more and more people are finding out about this scam.. the better it is.

    This has nothing to do with Halal, Cadbury has recently shrunk their big blocks from 220-210grams to 180-200 grams and now all the sharepacks aswell.

  • +1

    We seriously need to address this and keep out all religious content.

  • Tsandu you need to chill out dude

  • Tsandu you dont know what your talking about. What proof do you have that if you go to an islamic country they dont know what Halal certification is. Have you actually gone there yourself and asked the millions of muslims that question

    • +1

      I have family that comes from there.. so have a rough idea.

      Now let me ask you a question, in those countries assuming you have visited, What would happen if there is a Hindu certification, or a Christian certification, applied to most of their foods, in a majority muslim country?

      • What rules do Christians need to follow regarding food? Don't eat shellfish because it's an abomination to do so? Do Christians really need a certificate for that? Put a little Jesus stamp on all the wine?

        • for example.. christians, sikhs, hindus were not supposed to consume food blessed in the name of another god.. By their religion they can not eat any halal certified food which is blessed in the name of allah.. more and more food is becoming halal certified.. when thats only needed for 2% muslims.. what happens to all the other religions??

        • So I as a Christian should not be eating halal food at all, whether certified or not, simply because a book told me to?
          What meats can my relatives in the Middle-East eat?

        • @enidan:

          So its okay for the muslim community to require everything to be halal certified, even though they are only 2% of australians, yet you question why a christian, a hindu, or a sikh should follow the faith they believe in ? Hmm is there something wrong here?

          Adding to this that there is nothing in the koran saying anything about food needing to be halal certified. Person can judge if its halal or not. For example nuts, would be halal.. you dont need to pay a certificate fee, to tell you they are halal. If the islamic community want to pay for an abattoir to kill the animal in a certain way and pay for a prayer, to satisfy their needs, I don't have an issue with that. But why should this be paid by 98% who don't need it.. and even more some of which is against their religion to eat it. P.S. this is extra cost on top of the certification fee.

        • @tsandu:
          I agree with you when the obvious doesn't need a certification, though admittedly I've yet to see certification on something like nuts or fruit, but have seen it in products that don't have animal products which is silly as well.
          In relation to Christians not being allowed to eat halal food or those blessed by another faith, I just did a quick google search (at work atm) and found this: "eat whatever is sold in the meat market without raising any question on the ground of conscience" (1 Cor 10:25) (I personally believe that to be bull in today's society with animals being locked up in tight cages); and "if one of the unbelievers invites you to dinner and you are disposed to go, eat whatever is set before you without raising any question on the ground of conscience" (1 Co 10:27). Seems like it's all good.
          I don't know enough about the Hindu or Sikh faiths to answer about them though.

          I'm all for everyone following their own faith, but you're making it seem like 98% of Australians are being inconvienced by the 2% that just all happen to be Muslim. I know I'm not inconvenienced. My family isn't, my friends aren't. I'm guaranteed fresh meat for kibbeh when I go to my local halal butcher (owned by Christians- not sure if relevant or not)- can't buy that stuff at Woolies.

          May I ask- how exactly does halal certification inconvenience you? Maybe there's something I'm overlooking.
