What is the difference between the two? Isn’t an Easter egg simply a hard boiled painted egg?

The ones I've seen are hollow and filled with confetti (US)

he is talking about the chocolate easter eggs.

I assume you mean chocolate bunnies and Easter supplies, because I do not see any other eggs in this picture.

Far superior product!

Drop a chicken egg? smashed and usless!

Drop an easter egg? slightly smushed but still yummy.

Leave easter egg in warm car? messy but still yummy!

Leave chicken egg in warm car? Sudden hatch of a dozen chickens that then go on to poop all over your car destroying it.

....its not even close people.

I wish I could punch 10 year old me in the face for eating too many Cadbury eggs at once because now they disgust me but they are soooooo good.

top shelf is a chocolate egg(humpty dumpty) enlarge pic is says egg on package. the bags are considered eggs as well, zoom in and they are egg shape

Easter? It's bleeding February still, for god's sakes!!

I got a huge (like 2 kilo) chocolate egg once, and it almost put me off them for life by the time I was done with it...

Is there a real egg shortage?

In New Zealand, yes. There were regulation changes in 2012 which were to come into effect 2023 (i.e.now), banning the inhumane production of chicken eggs. The supermarkets were all on board with this as well, and essentially means all eggs need to come from somewhat ethical sources. Barn raised at the minimum, no cages, etc.

The egg producing farmers dragged thier feet for the decade they had to make the changes, cos, of course, those changes cost money and reduced production quota, so it was financially unsound to do anything prematurely.

Only, most waited until AFTER the change to START making changes, meaning we only had the "ethical" brands still able to supply the entire country, and we very quickly ran out, and here we are.
