Smarties set to lose their tube
“Nestle Rowntree is to replace the beloved 68-year-old cylindrical design with a hexagonal or six-sided pack.”
Sacriledge.
Hey Nestle – that’s like a UK firm wanting to use hamsters inside some of your swiss clocks to ‘spark a little interest’. Leave our smarties alone !
Damn shame!!
Whem my wee one grows up, he’ll never be able to hold an empty smarties tube in his hand, bang his other hand down and make the little plastic lid fly across the room…
It’s a sad day!!
That was not an mental image that I wanted, Terry. Specially related to Smarties 🙁
Wee one as in child, lol…. 🙂
I know that :secret:
Anyway, the hexa one should be usable for that, too. Not the same feeling, but it should work. 😮
Don’t even think there’s going to be any sort of lid that comes off now, it says on the site it’s a “cardboard flip-top”
Stupid six sided tubes are just wrong…. will they remove the letters on the underside of the lids too?
LEAVE OUR SWEETIES ALONE!
