    Unlike the cartoon series, where the main staple of the Smurfs' diet is Smurfberries, in the comics it is sarsaparilla (smilax regelii), a plant native to the Americas used as an ingredient for soft drinks like root beer. Peyo's partner Yvan Delporte introduced it to the comics because he found the name magical ("salsepareille" in French), and the word seemed so foreign to Peyo he originally believed Delporte made it up.

    During Season 9 of show, the writers wrote several episodes with different doppelgangers of Gargamel so that Paul Winchell (who played Gargamel) can play different types of Gargamels in different worlds. This idea was previously applied in Season 8 short "Don Smurfo's uninvited guests." But Paul Winchell was unavailable during Season 9, because he was playing the character of "Tigger" at Disney. So due to the lack of time, Michael Bell (who played Handy Smurf, Lazy Smurf, Grouchy Smurf, and other guest characters in this show) "had" to take over and play different doppelgangers of Gargamel in Season 9. So when season 9 episodes were released on television, they got low ratings and this show got canceled.
