It's a bit of a mess when the top blows and they go everywhere though.

Millions are great. There are around 470-500 'millions' in a tube. HTH

Are they anything like 'Nerds' - they were great, until there was that glass scare.

Can you still get Nerds?

[Mc Lovin]

I dont think you can still get nerds or dweebs sadly!

To answer the other popular questions, there are not fauuzands of them and i'm not sure about firing the lid off like you can with a smarties tube, although i shall report back on my findings once the tube has been emptied.

Getting back to sweets. I was talking about Booty Bags with someone last night (not something you want to search for at work!).

By my count there are 544 millions in the tube, so clearly there are not millions

Is this what your life has turned into Mc Lovin, counting how many sweeties are in a tube....sad, so very sad

[T5SOR]

Weigh the tube full, weigh the tube empty and then weigh one of the "millions". Then you can see how many are in there by removing the weight of the tube empty from the weight of the tube full and divide it by the weight of one. Either that or just eat them!

Since when have they been in a tube? I always thought they were in bags, been a while since I've had them though - the red one's were the best
