Default smarties

Just heard that Smarties are phasing out the blue one...


Everybody dash out and buy packets of the things, hang on to 'em for about a year and then coin it on ebay!!

They're removing the artificial colourings and using natural ones instead. Trouble is, there's no natural blue food colouring that they can use. So no more blue smarties (white ones instead, apparently)

Orange smarties are best, anyway.

I can't believe they're bringing white ones back in. I thought they were axed on the grounds that they looked like pills (and hence kids might eat pills, thinking they were smarties, or something).

Good point. Maybe they'll rethink the white ones.
