Wasn't that the blue?
All colours probably have them.
I know a child who can't have smarties as they send him loopy.

Re: Smarties
Smarties are just too small - now if they made them the same size as minstrels I'd be happy.

Re: Smarties
I don't like smarties, but while we were at the park today with the little en, another Mum was giving her child smarties, but telling him he wasn't having the blue ones
I thought that now they had gotten rid of all the E numbers and stuff, might just be my imagination

Re: Smarties
They have removed all the artificial colourings and flavourings from smarties, I think that they've done that will all their "sweets" now. I must admit having had some in an egg et easter i'm not as keen on them as they used to be, the only one that still tastes the same as it used to is the orange one.
The old tube, like many others I used to fire the lid at people.
Bring back the old smarties tube!!!
