Not sure what you mean by the flavoured ones... are you talking about the pink and white ones?  If so, they're not really 'flavoured'... even the pink ones just taste of marshmallow.
Oh lol. In the states colored almost always meant flavored, like strawberry or weirdness for the pink/yellow/green ones. Will have to look closer!

Pink marshmallows *really* bother me for some reason.
That and the size-variation.
I know I’m old now because I want marshmallows to be just like they were in the good old days...
Before I know it I’ll be voting for Trump.

See if anyone else here agrees with me first!  It would not be the first time someone accused me of having jaded tastebuds!

:). I think you're right... coloured marshmallows in the UK are not flavoured.

At least the pink and white ones you get in the supermarkets aren't. Not sure about marshmallow products in the sweets/candy aisles, but I don't remember eating flavoured ones growing up here.

I had one from a pi k and white pack and it was definitely flavored,not super strong, but it didn't taste like the white ones, which were 'normal'.

The usual. American girl meets British guy. They fall into like, then into love. Then there was the big decision. The American traveled across the pond to join the Brit. And life was never the same again.

I've never actually noticed the pink marshmallows here having a taste but I wonder if that is because I've just never bought flavoured ones or something?

I feel glad that I actually love blackcurrant jam, it's replaced the grape jelly for me pretty well. But I do still miss it from time to time.
