Easter Eggs

One of the great things about Easter as a stolen Spring-time holiday from the heathens of the Northern Hemisphere is the proliferation of exceptionally unlikely eggs.

Take the average Red Tulip Easter egg. It doesn't matter what size. For some inexplicable reason they all have this strange pattern etched into the outside - like scales on a plastic toy snake.

What eggs have scales?

Yet, for years, I've been eating these chocolate eggs with scales etched all over them and never once questioned the pattern.

By the way, I've only just found out that Red Tulip is made by Cadbury. This explains why they can afford to only have a real presence for three months of the year.
