Yesterday, I was filling 125 ml cups with ice cream. I got 12 cups filled and in the freezer and had less than 125 ml left so I walked over and handed my 15 year old son the tub and the spoon that I was using to fill the cups.

[Later]

Me: How did you like the ice cream?

Son: It was great. What kind of berries were those?

Me: What berries?

Son: The ones in the ice cream.

Me: Did you not taste them?

Son: No, I don’t like berries.

Me: They were (Canadian) Smarties (see NOTE).

Son: Smarties?

Me: Yes. You really should try things that I hand you.

Son: [Nomming on the smarties left in the bottom of the container covered in melted vanilla chocolate.] Uh huh.

NOTE: Canadian Smarties are like M&Ms but with milkier, smoother, better quality chocolate.

    I think that if you’re used to M&Ms DNS like the darker chocolate then they are going to win. I prefer the milk chocolate in Smarties but that’s just me.
