No, smarties come in a box and look similar to m&m's only they taste better. I don't think that you would have them in america. You poor deprived people.

No smarties in the US. That's a country in crisis!

Smarties rule. Always have, always will.

Sixlets were good.

I remember when I was really young me and a friend took some smarties and crushed them up into a powder and snorted them. Don't ask why because I don't think we knew at the time. :)

Here, smarties don't come in a box, they come packaged in rolls about 3 inches long, you usually have to buy them in bulk.

Smarties are one of the few candies I despise.

In the US, Smarties come in a little cellophane roll. I've never seen them in a box. They are like Sweet-tarts (which are kinda sour), only sweet and crappy. ;)

Cellophane wrapper? You guys are upside down over there. They come in a box of about 10 cm, usually have a fun little picture on the outside, and they taste fantastic. I could eat them for hours straight.

Yeah, nerds were just a passing fad 10 years ago. Smarties have always been cool.

Q: I bought Smarties in Canada, and they were more like M&amp;M's. What gives?
A: Ce De Candy only owns the trademark to the name Smarties in the United States. Outside the United States, Smarties is a registered trademark of Societe' des Produits Nestle' S.A. and are more like M&amp;M's. If you are in Canada, and want your tart and sweet favorite candy look for Rockets!

Looks like they ARE different in the USA!

Yeah the smarties in canada have a chocolate filling, and a hard candy shell, like m&amp;m's. Haven't you ever heard the commercial when you eat your smarties do you eat the red ones last...
