The only thing worse than these chalk smarties are the Necco valentines day conversation sweetheart candies, that are roughly the same degree of chalkiness, but compressed to diamond-hard, tooth breaking unchewability.
This article is about M&M’s which, I guess England... refers to as... smarties.
- goodcanadian 9y agoThis article is NOT about M&Ms. While superficially similar, they are made by different companies. Smarties predate M&Ms by decades.
- dontreadder 9y agoHe's confused by the American candy of the same name that is a tart fruit flavored powder pressed into a large wafer.
- smartoes 9y agoYeah, and that’s incredible, gee, but in America we just do not have any other word for this variety of candy coated chocolate thing, but oh my god brand names, wow. What next? Bitching someone out about trademark law because they referred to a photocopy as a xerox? Watch out! So yeah, awesome downvotes. Good job.
