'The giant displays of chocolate eggs appeared on the shelves in mid-January, as people took to social media to share their thoughts.'

Shoppers across Ireland were left shocked after finding their local Tesco supermarket already stocked with Easter Eggs.With three months to go until Easter, one woman shared a picture of a huge wall of Lindt and Cadbury's Easter eggs, saying it seemed "a bit early" for them to be in stock.She wrote: "Eh [thinking emoji] when is it easter ? April ? #Easter it’s a bit early."

Another person pointed out that there were other festive holidays to come before Easter, replying: "Good lord! What about Valentines Day candy??" One man shared a snap of a display of Cadbury Creme Egg and Crunchie eggs, writing: "Easter eggs in Tesco this morning !! On the 23rd of January - is this a record ??"

Meanwhile another woman wrote on Twitter last week: "It’s the coldest day in January and I’ve just seen a wall full of Easter Eggs in Tesco."It comes following 40 days of Lent, a period of reflection and fasting by Christians in the lead up Easter. However, Lent does not begin for another month, starting on Ash Wednesday or February 22 this year - the day after Pancake Tuesday.
