Easter eggs

So, the beautiful Easter is gradually catching us up, with Thorntons and Asda bulging with hungry crowds and children screaming for chocolate eggs and chocolate bunnies. But why is chocolate so strongly associated with Easter...how did chocolate become the theme of this Christian celebration?

Well, the symbolism of eggs and bunny rabbits I assume represent new life and reflect the real meaning of Easter which is resurrection and new life through Jesus Christ. The rolling eggs symbolises the stone that was rolled away from Jesus' tomb. Chocolate is just the commercialism and the money grabbing object...but it's not so bad. Chocolate is just the champagne that we crack open on the day, it's where we celebrate Jesus' resurrection with chocolate!

So...let's party and celebrate!
