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...

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.

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!

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. :)

Haha, sorry that was rather random.

Yeah think they still have the lil plastic tops with the letters on the inside!

I think the orange ones still have the flavouring...never really did understand why it was just the orange ones with taste...but I don't really care coz I love those ones :D

Smilies? Yes, Looks like i'm going to have to buy a tube now. Can't remember the last time I had Smarties. Usually I just pour the whole tube into my mouth at once :)

I actually haven't had smarties in ages. Are the orange ones the only ones which have flavour still? I think I need to do some research myself... :-P

I used to pop them at people :D

Do the tubes still come with the plastic letter lids?

I also now feel the need to do some research...may take a lot of researching though...perhaps even several tubes just to make sure!
