Depends on how susceptible you are to American-themed homophobia.

Have you never bummed a fag off anyone?

Why did they call them Opal fruits anyway? Ok, so like the jewel they came in lots of colours, but I don't recall any blues, mind though blue sweets are rather rare in general.

And Skittles and M&Ms, but most sweets seem to be the colour of the fruits who's flavours they imitate, so you tend to see a lot more yellows, greens, reds, oranges and purples on the sweetie spectrum than you do blues.

America has a lot more sweets, sorry, candy. Also drinks. I think it has something to do with their love of blueberrys.
