When did Smarties become so gross 🤢

I use to love Smarties more than M&Ms;but after my recent purchase I gotta say I am very disgusted and disappointed. The box is about half the size they use to be, and the candy coating not only look dull and gross but they must be using a different coating now because they cut the inside of my mouth up eating these

Will never again buy smarties for my kids could hurt their poor little mouths 😥
