ON: Math Class Disproves Candy Wrapper
Canadians eat enough Smarties each year to circle the Earth 350 times, or so claims one of the fun facts on the package.
This bit of trivia got a teacher in Thunder Bay, Ont., thinking. And she had her Grade 6 math class crunch the numbers.
The result: Nestlé Canada, maker of Smarties, gets failing grades in arithmetic and responsiveness.
