Heh, someone here suggested that, but that quote was : "Only Smarties Have The Answer!" ;)

I've done a google, but get similar results each way between M&M's and Minstrels...

Still, show's how interesting work is today, eh?

It needs to be something with a crispy shell otherwise the choccy will still melt in your mouth. I'm sure it was M&M's before those animated things came along.

If I remember correctly the slogan was jubilantly shouted by a crowd whilst sweets were poured in to someone's hand on screen. I'm sure there was a blue sweet in there so it must be M&M's!
