This is a complete bummer! We are going for the continental package just no doubt to safe money on the production process. Admittedly I haven't used my empty Smartie tube as a blow pipe for some years, but would like to have the continued opportunity to do so should the spirit move me!

Reported by the BBC News, no less .... see this link: SMARTIES SET TO LOSE THEIR TUBE (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/4276553.stm)
Love some of the comments made ..... especially this one by Bryan, UK .....
How dare they remove the world's greatest artillery machinery - the flying Smarties lid propelled by air pressure resulting from a sudden squishing of the tube!
