This is so awesome: Math class proves Smarties fun fact isn't true

A Grade 6 math class in Thunder Bay has debunked the claim that Canadians eat enough Smarties each year to circle the earth 350 times.

(I had to check the math, but it all makes sense now.)

Best quote:

To make the company's claim true, each Smartie would have to be bigger.

"Three and a half metres," says student Kaylie Rankin. "It's about the size of our chalkboard. I don't know if I'd be able to eat it."
