In order to move to "all-natural" ingredients, Nestlé decided to cease production of the blue and green colours in March, as no naturally-derived substitutes for these colours can be found. Britain has been without these colours since 2006

It's probably just as well, as indigo blue (indigotin) was apparently first produced by soaking the indigo plant in diluted urine. Also, I can remember when blue Smarties were introduced. If we could do without them originally, I suppose we can make do once again

Or eat M&M's

Interests:Allo! Names Paddy, if you hadn't guessed :P, I'm 18 and spend most of my time in university studying Computer Science so I guess that instantly makes me a geek regardless :D I'm also a complete music geek. I'll pretty much try listening to anything once but my heart lies in Rock and Metal. As well as listening to music I play Bass Guitar for a Progressive Metal Band called Dark Matter and write my own music under the moniker Duality for which I play Guitar and Keyboard/Synth. (Links in sig) I also play a fair few games on the 360 and PC, Gamertag is Paddy0 90. Thats it, if you want to know anything else wing em a PM, worst case I'll get horribly offended and never talk to you again. I jest :P

I'm still going to eat the red ones last.

That's all I care about.

Interests:I love movies, I don't watch much tv anymore except for DEXTER! I am huge fan of that guy. I'm learning guitar (self taught) and it's going well. I like all kinds of music and mostly I don't listen to the radio, I like to look for bands that are more underground *sorry if that sounds cliche*. That's not to say there isn't some good entertainment out there, just... well this is what I'm listening to lately: City & Colour Coheed and Cambria Dustin Kensrue Emarosa Flight of the Conchords Fleet Foxes Imogen Heap Isles and Glaciers Lights Missy Higgins Owl City Paramore Say Anything Sufjan Stevens The Reason Ubiquitous Synergy Seeker You, Me, and Everyone We Know There are a lot more, but not enough room so I'll stick with those for now. I'm pretty sure they all have myspace accounts if you want to take a look.
