feralmoggy Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 Maybe I'm going senile in my old age but when I was younge many moons ago I'm sure Smarties were acid colours and shiny but I bought some today after 10yrs of not eating them and they've gone dull and pastel colours ... have bought myself a dodgy packet, have things changed or are colours normally brighter in your youth? Oh and don't tell me 'only smarties have the answer' ... that really isn't much help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elijahs_ladie Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 hehe i was so guna write that yesh they did used to be brighter colours....theyve gone for more pastel shades now which totally ruin them for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucienight Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 I thought they were still quite bright, but then again it has been quite a long time since I ate any! Maybe they are using less colouring in them to make them slightly more healthy or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
