The supermarket giant has also tried flogging chocolate bunnies in the run-up to Christmas Eve today.
Over at Sainsbury’s, Cadbury Creme Eggs are already on sale — stunning festive shoppers and dismaying church leaders.
With Easter still three months away, the rush to cash in on the £500million-a-year market caused concern.
Church of England spokesman Steve Jenkins said: “Christmas celebrates Jesus’s birth — a different message from Easter, which marks the end of his life.
“Supermarkets should not be selling Easter eggs now.” He added: “Customers think it’s daft — and supermarkets should take what they think into account.”
