smarties are suddenly much less brightly coloured!

I noticed that in the early 90s in europe, I wonder if it has truly taken us this long to catch up with food colouring regulations

more this:


than this:

That second batch hurt my eyes!

The first batch are duller.

Someone should investigate this.

I think these are Hungarian ones, Cheek could you please verify this?

yes

I think if one orger from each country sent me a packet of smarties I could solve this mystery!

3 months later...

hop to it mister, you already have my address!

ZombieKitten said:

They stopped using artificial colours, hence the dullness.

BUT, why did Australia wait this long?

LittleSmedley said:

So those are natural colours?

ZombieKitten said:

You'd look beautiful whatever hair colour

it says here june of last year for europe, but swedish smarties looked real washed out back in 92

LittleSmedley said:

can't see it anyway

Zk is ur son old enough to eat smarties? Do u washed-out ones have less of a hyperactive effect on him?

LittleSmedley said:

I don't give them any, they are all for ME! I have had this jar here obviously since before last June though pretty slow going.

I like smarties, but I avoid the blue ones, because it has been scientifically proven that they make you grow tits.

LittleSmedley said:

That explains why there aren't any blue ones in her jar.
