This is definitely and completely true… maybe.
UPDATE:
The saddest development in this story has just been uncovered. Freddo Frogs are now 20 per cent smaller than before.
Cadbury Freddos have gone from 20g to 15g to now just a mere 12g in two years. What’s next? A 5 g Freddo head in one packet, his feet in another – sold separately?!
The kicker in this devastating story is this: We’re still paying the same price for one whole bite less.
A spokesman from Cadbury’s parent company is trying to shift the blame onto higher costs, but we’re not buying it.
“We’re making a change to the size of the product because of manufacturing cost increases that we can no longer absorb,” spokesman Julian Polachek said.
#BoycottFreddos – Only joking. We love Freddos too much to give them up.

The other week I decided to treat myself to a sweet, sweet Wagon Wheel.
I bought the delicious chocolate with the knowledge its size would satisfy my chocolate cravings for half an hour at least. But to my enormous disappointed, the marshmallow biscuit is now at least half the size it used to be.
