Posted by: richarddennison on: September 7, 2009
Cadbury has rejected a £10.2bn takeover bid from Kraft Foods.
A Cadbury spokesperson said: “We heard a wispa of this last week but when it came to crunchie time this morning, the offer was too flakey. We don’t want to end up with crème egg all over our faces – we all just want to emerge from this smelling of roses.”

There is said to be general Turkish Delight as it will reduce competition for the national snacks in some countries, for example, sales of Fruit and Nut rose steadily in afterhours trading. One businessman was seen to Twirl his moustache in delight.
