I thought this was a typo . . .
Sprocket says:
euch!
Sadly it was v. filling, so now I don't have any room left for proper food, like cake or biscuits :-(
Spiderbaby says:
Oh no! Haw about Smarties? They're quite small but contain the major food groups of both chocolate and sugar.
MaggieD says:
I always keep bags of 'fun size' for such an occassion ..... there's always room for a little one ....
Dhamaka says:
Spiderbaby, I thought everyone knew there are only 4 food groups - protein, fat, carbohydrate and chocolate cake..
Spiderbaby says:
I agree D, but there is new-fangled notion about something called 'greens', I believe is the term, being important too. Which is why Smarties are ideal as they contain most colours (although I miss the blue ones :( )
Dhamaka says:
*concedes the importance of smarites
*mourns the passing of 'blue ones'
Sprocket says:
Lost interest in Smarties after the monkeyed around with the shape of the tube.
Bloomin' designers!!!!

i am with you on this Sproket, smarties tubes should be round.
When i lived in bedsit land i decorated the whole of my fireplace/surround with Smartie tubes.
Now being a proper grown up (and out) i can see that this was indeed a major fire hazard!
Sprocket says:
FF – personally I just liked with the old tubes, that when you finished them, you could give 'em a hearty squeeze and the end cap would shoot off and hit someone in the eye.
Spiderbaby says:
The new tubes are rubbish, that's a fair point. Tried one the other day (because I was missing them) and was very dissapointed that the Smarties don't roll out of the container in the same way (they get stuck on the silly opening) and they don't make that pleasing noise anymore of smarties rushing out of a proper cylindrical tube :( And there are no blue ones :( And there are more brown ones :( I never even noticed the brown ones before
paintist says:
yay smartie tube guns...stamp on the tube and the lids went for miles...personally I really disliked the blue ones, and the new tubes haven't even registered on my radar.....

Hurrah for us grown-ups. I'm sure Tom Wolfe or Douglas Copland has a snazzy term for us.
