@anothercrusader i know. I don't know if you did this, but we used to set the tube on the table with the lid on and hit it and the lid would shoot out. That's the main reason it pissed me off that they changed it lol
@BackInAGiffy Quite. That was the "Fun" of the Smarties tube and anyway, a cylinder is a much more attractive form than hexagon. Trust the French to miss the point. It's like all the other things that have been swallowed by foreign companies, Treets (melt in your mouth not in your hand) They're gone and we're stuck with sickly M&Ms. Opal Fruits now called Star Burst. Why? Because the yanks can't get their heads around Opal Fruits. Commerce killed off our favourite sweets.
@anothercrusader and now cadbury is American. I don't know why foreign companies can't just buy our sweet brands and stay out of the styling and design just give the job to a UK base who know the market.
@Morphadyte haha nope we don't have them - the only smarties we have are like the "rockets" candy in canada (fruity candy stacked in a clear plastic wrapper). From what I have been hearing these smarties are pretty common everywhere else!
@Morphadyte They're in the US, but M&Ms are far more popular. There's also another kind of candy called a "smartie" that's kind of a sour, powdery pill...
Oh shit. I was born in 1991 and I somehow remember these.
I think I was too young to remember them even saying anything in the commercials, but I distinctly remember seeing the centipede/anteater whatever all the time.
@RyanGruyters ehhehe I actually love Canada and they are full of smarties with a great sense of humour;-))) my grandfather is canadian and have many cousins there which I love to wind up eheh
Ahhh Smarties commercials were so much more better back then...I don't like the new ones nowadays and the tubes!! they were so much more better round.
By the way I hope you don't mind me posting this also?
We've finally got a channel! WOOHOO ;D and we've now uploaded our first inroduction video (be nice...its our first after all haha ;L) and tell us what you think :D? also if you like what you see SUBSCRIBE SUBSCRIBE SUBSCRIBE! ;D.
they're made with natural dyes. the purple ones for instance aren't even vegetarian technically purple the dye is made using a derivative of the Cochineal insect. :)
thats why blue ones were gone too, because they couldn't find a natural blue dye when they switched. Now they have supposedly.
Miss the 90's. It was pretty much the best time for a kid to grow up in. No terrorism threats, no school shootings... those were the days all the best romantic comedies came out then. You've got mail, father of the bride, Never been kissed, Picture Perfect, Lost and found & television! Buffy, Friends, Sienfield, Xfiles, Toons: Rugrats, SailorMoon, Doug... good times.
i wasn't even alive yet! i'm only 9!they're determined to bring old things back to life that's FOR SURE!I JUST HOPE THEY DON'T BRING IT BACK TO TELEVISION THOUGH!
Damn, i've just talked to wolfie. and he just said he prefers old adverts to new adverts, 'cause new adverts just revolve around sex or a sexual atitude to the product there advertising
@spaceankh wow, are you really that stupid? it`s spelled the FRENCH way because you may have not heard of Quebec. whick is pronounced ka-bec not Qua bec. idiot, you can`t even spell.

@SniperViper1000 And I'm talking about someone talking about US Smarties (Rockets, it's called Smarties in the us) not Nestle Smarties. Nestle doesn't sell them here I don't think. If so, it's imported (from what I recall).
Good, but it's not as good as the Smarties advert wih CGI init. It's also the advert that was in the "Only Smarties have the answer" era. But on the whole this is still classic!
No, all my dogshit experience is second hand. Did you know that UK Smarties taste different than Canadian ones? There's a distinct lemony flavor to the ones from the UK. I prefer the Canadian ones.
