But I only get them every couple years. Can't find them here in Korea, so when I go home I try to buy some. They last a couple of days.

then eat the least first, working my way through- one by one.
I do the same with M&Ms, Skittles, etc...

If, due to some horrendous cosmic prank, I find a Smarties tube in my bag, I give them to my wife.


To put it in the words of my friend and former co-worker (and I believe he summed up the Smarties experience nicely): "Them shits is gross."

One at a time.

Two at a time.

Three at a time, but no more than that.

Sometimes I chew them immediately.

Sometimes I let them just sort of swish around in mouth juices until they get soft, then I chew them.

Where else can a person get so much entertainment from a tiny roll of candy?
