Please explain to the ignorant Canadians??

I always know when Easter is on its way. I’ll be walking through the grocery or discount store and my daughter will let out a strange, high-pitched noise that means she has seen the colored-sugar-coated marshmallow animals. It sounds like, “Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeps!”

I personally used to trade them with my brother for his black jelly beans.

M&Ms vs. Smarties (CAN)

I think smarties are a hundred times better than M&Ms… the chocolate in M&Ms is much darker and far more bitter. UGH.

Rockets, on the other hand, are better than either.

This is off topic, but I just wanted to share that Smarties (Canadian Smarties) were originally called Chocolate Niblet Beans. I just found it to be an unappealing name…


That was a well-plotted piece of non-claptrap that never made me want to retch.
