Smarties Cereal.. continued.

If you haven't seen the first smarties cereal, scroll down and read about it first. Otherwise this won't make a lot of sense. Otherwise, continue.

So me and Aaron were confused how anyone could choke down Smarties cereal.. We had a bad experience with it. It must just be those stupid Brits, we thought. But after talking to a few real life brits including Brittanny (notice the brit in her name) and Gemma (she's actually like from Great Britain), we found out that Smarties is a completely different thing accross the pond. In fact, most of them don't even know anything about the crappy Smarties we have in the US. So I did my research and found out that Smarties in UK are actually more like M&M's. In fact, one of the members of the family that Mr. Mars (of Mars candy) was traveling with went on to make Smarties in the UK while Mr. Mars made M&M's in the US.

So I scoured the internet looking for any way I could import these delightful sounding treats to my home in the US of A. I was absolutely tickled to find that there were many internet candy stores in the UK who will ship worldwide... Until I found out how much it would cost. The first store was selling them for about 3 pounds for each box including shipping, and I was like meh, 3 bucks isn't so bad. And then it dawned on me, so pounds and dollars are entirely different. That's almost $6.50 per box. How would you like to pay 6 freakin bucks for a pack of stupid chocolate? I almost entirely gave up on the idea, when it dawned on me. There are stores around here who sell British candy.. What was I thinking? Just because I live my life about 80% on the internet doesn't mean everybody else does.. So once again me and Aaron were on a quest to eat genuine British Smarties Cereal. In fact, you could call this Smarties Cereal Quest II - Dead man's chest. Wait, I think I'm thinking of another sequel.

But at any rate, we found a store called Many Lands in Provo, in which was sold the candy we so desperately desired. There they were, sitting there looking so delicious in that ingeniously designed hexagon box.. Nestlé Smarties.


Complete with the authentic British spelling of "Colour"


So we made it into cereal once again.


Chow down!



And this time we actually enjoyed it. Turns out Moss is still the genius we always knew he was. Delicious candy coated chocolate in milk? Can life get any better?? I submit that it cannot!



Oh, and by the way, don't let me sing ever again. And remember kids, when they say Smarties Cereal, they don't mean crappy chalky crap artificially fruit-flavored candy produced by Ce De Candy, Inc., they mean Nestlé Smarties, a colourful sugar-coated chocolate confectionery popular in Europe and the British Commonwealth.

There is a huge difference.

Eat up!
