Don't give the marketing monkeys ideas Omag, after a couple of kilos of cocaine in some wine bar they'll think that is a really good idea ::) :o :P

I did read on the page Saitek linked to in the original post this reply to Nestle's decision...

"Smarties in a box? Yet a further erosion of our national identity. What next, white Marmite?"

Interesting thought But will the overall quantity in each pack be reduced because of the shape?
