Smarties from Canada |
|
|

Do you eat the red ones last? Is this a patriotic thing? |

This is a long, thin, broad, 84g, WOW! SIZE box that a friend brought me back from Canada in 2005. The
box was full, so I felt duty bound to compare the contents to UK Smarties. Sure
enough, they were different. They were very sweet and I preferred them to the UK Smarties, which ironically I never
really rated! |

This is a 50g box. It celebrates Smarties becoming 'Canada's number 1 candy coated chocolate'. That's probably the same in the UK, but I haven't seen any national flags on Smarties. Maybe one day? Anyway, the box is a very striking design with reflective red foil in the Maple leaves and round the 'eh?' on the front. I bought this box in 2006, having been told that it was from 2005/06. |

These are the Smarties inside the box. All of them either red or white. The red is a special edition shade, and some of the white Smarties have the Canadian Maple leaf printed on them. A nice touch. |

This Canadian Smarties bar is similar to the ones
we have in the UK. At 45g it is the same weight
as the regular UK bars, but it is peanut butter
flavour. Absolutely delicious! I don't know whether or not
these have been available in the UK, but they
SHOULD be! There is no best before date, but I
ate it this year (2006). |
