Or have smarties got darker?

I only noticed the other day when I was finding something to fill my gumball machine (I'm fed up of bubblegum). The green and brown ones look like army camouflage now...

I suppose you could say the brown ones had a chocolate flavour. :-P

Definitely gonna have to investigate smarties again. It's been too long. :)

I was never keen on Smarties personally. I wasn't keen on the coating. They were alright if I savoured them in my mouth for a while so they melted though.

Refreshers and Apple Jacks (do Apple Jacks still exist?) ftw!

The only packets I can find now aren't the old round tubes, they don't even have plastic lids any more. I think they're stopping those.

Look what they call smarties in america, its sick and twisted. :(

Wafers? How dare they! :D

They look like those love sweet thingies in that packaging.

Reminds me, I haven't had tootie friuties in years, do they still do them?

Perhaps we could do a sweet trial each week. Pick a certain batch of sweets for us all to go out and try...

Smarties are nice but I prefer Fruit Pastels.

I'm more of a chocolate person (and it shows).

Actually, I'm fatter now than I was this time last year. Far less Taekwondo and more over-indulgence, I need to get some of this weight off.

It has to be the ASDA budget chocolate buttons; for 30p you get a bag about five times the size of a Cadbury's packet and the chocolate tastes almost no different :D
