Not in the US
Do you mean Sixlets?
No idea what they are tbh…
In the USA M&Ms are an imitation of what are called Smarties in the UK.
We have both in Canada. The difference is that smarties are naturally colored, whereas M&Ms are vibrant thanks to artificial colorings
Ok, NOW the shower thought makes a lot more sense.
Same. I was wondering how on earth those chalky semi-tart discs were anything like chocolate.
Wait… Am I confusing them with Sweet Tarts? 🤔 One is a taffy in a Skittle like candy shell and the other is disgusting crap.
I think you may be triple confusing SweetTarts™ (chalky semi-tart disks) with Smarties™ (chalky sweet but oddly flavorless disks) and Spree™ (not as chalky, candy coated disks) which these days are more often encountered as Chewy Spree™ (Chewy candy coated disks.)
And we haven’t even mentioned Necco Wafers™ (big ol’ chalky disks) nor Giant SweetTarts™ (big ol’ semi-tart chewy disks)!
We just love candies that are press pull format
Also isn’t there “shock tarts” as well
Yes! I haven’t seen those in a good long while but I loved those so much. I think they still exist though. (Sour candy coated chewy disks, of course, for those unfamiliar.)
The glands that produces saliva in my moth were clogged due to infection. I took one shock tart and put it on the tip of my tounge .
The relief I felt when it cleared out is unbelievable. Shock tarts are a medicine lol
I forgot they aren’t horrid chalky crap outside the US and was like “what??”
TIL smarties are horrid chalky crap inside the US, yikes another reason I’m glad I’m not there xD.
US smarties are the same exact thing as Rockets elsewhere. They’re both sugary crack
TFW you like US Smarties
Can’t say I’ve tried em, evidently 😅. Though, could be interesting just for the experience.
Had a sleeve of them on my desk prior to my above comment. Idk why people are saying they’re chalky. They’re basically just lightly flavored sugar tablets.
…yay? 😐
As candy goes, that’s about as base-level acceptable as it gets. Was it the last thing at the bottom of a candy bowl and you settled for it?
Nah I specifically grabbed those. Legit one of my favorites.
They’re sugar candies tho??
