Fans are divided after Celebrations ditches Bounty from new tubs

Fans of Bounty bars have been left fuming after Mars Wrigley announced it would remove the coconut chocolate from certain Celebrations tubs this Christmas. The move comes after 39 percent of consumers said they wanted Bounty bars to be axed for good.

Customers will be able to swap tubs bought at selected Tesco Christmas Market sites for a Bounty-free alternative until December 18. The ‘No Bounty’ boxes will feature extra Mars, Snickers, Milky Way, Galaxy and Maltesers sweets instead.

But the move is proving controversial with chocolate fans, who have shared their thoughts on Facebook - and many have slammed the decision. On the M.E.N.'s Facebook page, Susan Keenan said: “I won’t be buying them, Bounty was my favourite” while John Kidd wrote: “Bountys rule, should be more not less!”
