Rockets taste better than (US) Smarties too. Try them back-to-back in a blind taste test if you ever get a chance and judge for yourself.
The funny thing is, some of the US candies are made in Canada, and you can taste the difference between them and the US-made ones.

Where I’m from those are called Rockets
I believe I have heard of that before. Interesting name for these.
