For you stinky Americans, Rockets are called Smarties here.
What?? Then what do they call Smarties??
Oh wait - I just remembered that Jack-Mike ate some of my Smarties in Niagara and I don't think he'd ever had them before. I just thought he didn't get out much. So no Smarites in the States except for the ones that are really Rockets.
* Of course, maximum enjoyment of the Scream trilogy is predicated on your having seen plenty of slasher flicks beforehand, so some might argue that they don't count, but as someone who grew up with the Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street franchises, among others of that ilk, well... I really enjoyed them.
As for Rockets... are those what we here in the US call... erf. I can't think of the name, but I know what I mean! Not Sweet Tarts, but those things that are kind of like Sweet Tarts but with a colored sugar coating... OH! Spree! Like that??
You Canadians. *g* Milk sold in bags, a red ribbon for first place... sheesh. ;)
(I like the little differences, actually. They make life interesting and amusing when I visit there.)

You forget I grew up on the Canadian border in Northern Maine. I just think Smarties taste like candy coverd shit.

As opposed to cock flavored soup! (or soup-flavored cock?)
The red Smarties taste the best.
