Celebrations has removed Bounty bars from some of its boxes this Christmas – and the move has divided shoppers.
While additional Galaxy, Mars, Milkyway, Snickers and Teasers bars have been added, there’ll be 2,000 Bounty-less tubs available.
The move comes as part of a trial to see if shoppers want to get rid of Bounty’s permanently.
But many chocolate lovers have taken to social media to express their anger at the decision, while others have happily wished the coconut-flavoured chocolate adieu.
One person Tweeted: “Whoever decided to take Bounty’s out of Celebrations boxes is a genius, what a game changer.”
Another pleased shopper said: “A tub of Celebrations with no Bounty? Best news I’ve heard in a while.”
