What have they done to Smarties???!!!

Bought a pack of four tubes of Smarties to use the orange ones for today's orange shot.

The tubes are not round! The plastic lid with the letter has gone!! And the colours!!!! All washed out and so pallid. Taste pretty much the same though so all's not bad, but I'm sure they've shrunk!

I can't get my new model railwayers to stand up, which is why some are sitting down on the job. Had quite a job in the model shop today choosing the set I wanted!!

Oh dear, did your little workers fiddle with them ;-)

No sweets seem to be what they used to. All the bars are smaller and you can’t get 4 blackjacks for a penny any more. 🙁

Probably something to do with E-numbers Jackie!! Love this shot, hope the little people got to eat some Smarties too, they are certainly working hard!

Neat

Even though there were changes, it a really cool and creative shot.

Very creative, fun shot. And I can see why you were disappointed with the orange Smarties. Maybe they've stopped using artificial cplours?

Great composition although yes the Smarties are a disappointment. Have you tried double sided sellotape or sticky glue pads on their feet I sometimes use these to get things to stay where I want them.

Hmm, I might have to go and buy some Smarties to see if our colours have changed. I wonder if they have moved away from using artificial colours. Great set up :)

Fun shot!!
