      Do you really want to know?

      It’s simple. You tie up the rabbit so it can’t move, then you force feed it chocolate.

      Then you force it to shit into a mold. while it’s still warm it becomes egg-shaped.

      (actually I never understood that one either, I’m just making shit up here. though. not the cruelest thing we’ve ever done for food.)

      It’s paganism and the christians back in the day wanted to make it easier for the pagans to convert so they added pagan holidays and made them christian holidays. Which is why Easter has eggs and bunnies. Both are fertile idols in paganism and are in spring.
