The article discusses the false claims circulating on social media regarding the renaming of chocolate Easter bunnies in Germany to 'sitting bunnies'. This narrative has been fueled by right-wing political figures, who argue that such changes are indicative of a deeper cultural shift away from Christian traditions. Investigations have revealed that while Lidl does offer a product named 'sitting bunny', it still provides various Easter-themed items, thus dispelling the narrative that Easter is being downplayed or erased in favor of political correctness.
The claim that chocolate Easter bunnies are being 'forced out' of Germany is untrue. Lidl does sell a 'sitting bunny', but it’s not a replacement for Easter bunnies.
Lidl clarifies that the term 'sitting bunnies' is used to distinguish some products and that they still offer items explicitly labeled as Easter-themed.
