    Omg I remember those from when I was younger! They don’t have the here in the USA—Smarties here are like chalky little pills. Don’t get me wrong: they’re delicious, but the chocolate ones are good too.

        They look like UK “Fizzers” made by “Swizzels” (both real words).

        I wonder if they taste the same?

        It’s made out of the same stuff as “Love Hearts”, if they exist outside the UK.

      You are not losing on much anymore. They changed recipe a few years back and since then I don’t buy them. I used to eat them a LOT and my friends have said the same. I could recognize the new from the old ones based on their packaging and the about to be expired old ones still tasted better.
