    To replace M&Ms, you suggest fucking Smarties?

    I have never once wanted M&Ms and been happy to find that all I had left were smarties.

    Edit: apparently, smarties in the US are nothing like smarties elsewhere.

      I don’t like neither of them TBH. But it’s the closest non-US alternative (which is the purpose of this list). I think Kraft-owned companies have various alternatives in different countries as well. Personally I’d go for small-scale local chocolate companies. More expensive, but in my experience better tasting and often less unhealthy (you actually get “dark chocolate” with less than 50% sugar and more than 50% cocoa).

        I posted that thinking it was US smarties, which are slightly-sour chalky candies. Smarties from elsewhere look like a reasonable replacement for M&Ms, ethics and quality notwithstanding (because Nestle)
