Because...They are YUMMY! and have absolutely nothing to do with the Christian Holiday. They are simply the opportunist marketing of a tasty confection that enables candy makers to make huge amounts of money. Same thing at Christmas, Halloween, Valentine's Day, etc. To my knowledge, jesus never actually enjoyed any of the delicious confections since cacao or chocolate had not been imported into the rest of the world from the Mayans or Aztecs of Mexico. An even more interesting question, though, is why we associate a basket of eggs with a rabbit. Rabbits are mammals. Eggs belong to birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects...etc.
Modern celebrations of "holidays" typically have little or no relationship to their original ancestors. They are simply modern, commercial, fun, arguably ridiculous "traditions" designed to increase sales. Except for a select few, they are hardly religious events.
