  1. Please give Glypo the best answer, I used to write that down every time the teacher asked me a maths question I didn't know.


  2. i don't know, but i like any colour

  3. They were blue, what more do you need?

  4. ITS BECAUSE THE TV AND ADVERTISING INDUSTRY TELL US THAT THEY ARE SPECIAL..

    THERE NOT THEY ARE FULL OF CRAPPY E NUMBERS.

    MILKYWAY'S RULES. ;-)

  5. Why are you asking us? Surely you know that:

    only smarties have the answer!

    ;-)

  6. Smarties are a great way of teaching children colours and numbers. The watchword is moderation, as in all things.

  7. I think they had quite a few E numbers in them, which were frowned upon due to the hyperactivity they could cause. X

  8. its cuz the blue ones were the nummiest!

    .. actually i've always liked the white ones.. and then there were blue ones! ohmy!

    idk blue is a good color=] people like blue, it makes you calm.. or something.

  9. They were full of mad colourings and E numbers which made youre kids go totally hyper and crazy.

  10. ha

  11. They dissappeared for a while but now they're back with no artificial colours or flavours...yeah fascinating isn't it :/ lol

  12. they make your tounge blue and everyone loves sweets that change the colour of your tounge even if they dont like to admit it.

  13. It's like everything if someone takes something away then you are guaranteed everyone will want it back, even if they didn't really notice it before.

  14. Blue smarties used to make a lot of kids go hyper because of the E-numbers the colouring contained, so they got rid of them, and then recently they brought them back. I think the new ones use different stuff to colour it with that doesn't cause hyperactivity.

  15. I have no idea! Personally, I like the pink ones best.

  16. Smarties - the debate surrounds the coloring agents added to blue smarties which some think are unsafe.  Blue Smarties are back now coloured by an extract of seaweed.
