when you eat your Smarties, do you eat the red ones last?

I'm scrappping tonight. And I'm really feeling it!! This layout I'm working on....it's gonna be my newest fave. Just decided to take a break for a few minutes to ask my fellow bloggers a question. And it's a real easy answer....either yes or no. Oh, and tell me where you live.

I wasn't under the impression that Smarties were Canadian candy....however, through the wonderful world of blogging, I've run into two people who've sorta boggled my brain..... One girl wrote on her blog about receiving Smarties for Christmas and likened them to M&Ms but way better in an attempt to introduce Smarties to her readers. I was like "What the heck??? Who is she talking to, doesn't everyone know Smarties?" I just chalked it up to the fact that she lived in Utah and perhaps, Smarties weren't in wide circulation.


Then, when I stated 'not eating the brown Smarties' as a quirk of mine a few post back, I got this comment:

" Brown smarties? Whoever heard of such a thing? Wait a minute.. I just realized
(as I was typing that) that you're probably not talking about the same smarties as
I am thinking of... hmmm..."


Soooooooo, my question is....... Do you know Smarties? Yes or No? And where do you live?

p.s. I included a picture of the Smarties (candy coated milk chocolate, delish!) I'm munching on as I type this......notice there are no brown Smarties. I took them all out for the picture and gave them to Jimmy. It's his job to eat the ugly Smarties.
