Replace all instances of a character in multiple elements

<div class="example">Some example text</div>
<div class="example">Some more example text</div>

How can I remove all instances of the letter 'e' (case sensitivity not necessary) in the elements above without preexisting ids?

de.innerHTML = de.innerHTML.replace(/>.*?</g, function(a, b) {
    return a.replace(/e/g, "f");
});

$('div').each(function() {
    this.innerHTML= this.innerHTML.replace(/e/g, '');
});

LIVE DEMO​

If you want e or E use this:

$('div').each(function() {
    this.innerHTML= this.innerHTML.replace(/e|E/g, '');
});

If there are elements inside those <div>s use the text function to get only the textNodes:

$('div').each(function() {
    $this = $(this);
    $this.text($this.text().replace(/e|E/g, ''));
});

Assuming you want to replace the content of the inner text (and not generically all the 'e's inside the tag):

$(yourselector).each(function(){
  $(this).text($(this).text.replace(/e/g, ''));
});

PS Corrected after gdoron remark...
