How Come The Smartie Candies Will Rip Your Tongue So Quickly? Lol

I mean they can make your tongue sore very in a flash after eating them, anyone know why? Lol Thanx


Answer:
It is the citric acid in them that make your tongue smart. They were recently
banned from a middle arts school, to find out why kids like them learn more here. www.jointogether.org
Comment: Thank you for that, great answer.
Answer: You're right Tiggs, now that I presume of it, Smarties do hurt your tongue! I don't really have an answer for you, other than that maybe it have something to do with the sweetness and the tartness. Other foods that make my tongue sore after eating them are fudge and pineapple. For some explanation, every time I eat a piece of fudge (as delish as it is!) my tongue starts hurting. The same applies to pineapple. Hmmm. Weird phenomenon...
Comment: It dawned on me, maybe it is because they are so granular? Maybe huh?
Answer: I'm assuming these are like peas in a pod in the US as they are in the UK (small candy shells filled next to chocolate, like a smaller version of M&Ms) ?. I can't eat them any more as I enjoy diabetes, but as a youngster I ate loads of them. Can't say I ever had a problem near them cutting my tongue though.
I have a friend who's now 52 but STILL collects the plastic tops from the tubes, which own letters of the alphabet embossed on them !
Comment: No, not like that, they are little candies that are solid, and are tangy or a little sour, and when they verbs up, they rub on your tongue and make your tongue sore. Lol
Answer: I haven't eaten any Smarties recently.  But I never have any trouble like that when I was a child, and they were one of my partiality sweeties.  Maybe they have changed the recipe recently.  Come to think of it, though, I do hold an awful lot of fillings in my teeth. Hmmm!
Comment: Wow, great answer +5 you know, thank you so very much!
Answer: I love smarties. They rock. But my tongue never hurts after i put away them. Well not that i know of. I've never really thought about it. I'll keep you informed though
Comment: Have you tried the giant smarties? Lol, they are great!!
Answer: I love the candy and all I can enunciate is they never really made my tongue sore
Never heard of that candy
