Showing Original Post only (View all)One Million Moms boycotts Cadbury Creme Eggs for 'pushing homosexuality' [View all]
The Cadburys Creme Egg advert upset all the right people when it was released in early January because of its inclusion of a gay couple.
***snip***
Needless to say, religious lobbying group One Million Moms are not impressed with the advert. They hit out at the UK campaign and urged people to join them in boycotting the delicious treat in a post on their website.
If you look forward to having your annual Cadbury Creme Egg each Easter season, you might not like how the company celebrates the risen Saviour, One Million Moms wrote on its website.
The group shared a link so concerned parents can watch the offending advert themselves, but they warned that it is both graphic and offensive.

Honestly, it's amazing there's no version of the Bible with commercial sponsorship yet.

Better to boycott a candy company than address gun violence in schools, and elsewhere
