Drynites

Are they any good?  Also, I haven't been able to find any in the US, but have heard that drynites are the european equivalent of goodnites, which doesn't make sense.  (Why would the same company have 2 different product lines for an almost identical product.)

If you look at pictures on drynites.co.uk, you'll see they're the same product, with the same prints. It could be something as simple as culturally preferable names to similarly named product existing in the U.K.  

In the U.K. they call their Milky Way Bar a Mars Bar. We, in the U.S. have another product called a Mars Bar unrelated to the U.K. product. The U.K. also has a product called the Milky Way Bar which is like a 3 Musketeers bar. In the U.K. Lay's Potato Chips are called Walker's. It's pretty common for companies to do this.

Even in the US alone, some things change names.  On the east coast, we have an ice cream brand called "Edys".  On the west coast, it's called "Dryers".
It gets doubly confusing when you look at the brands overall.  On the east we have "Edys, Bryers, and Friendlies".  On the west its "Dryers, Bryers, and Friendlies"!

So goodnites and drynites are the same thing, just with a different name?

It looks like they have a 3rd size (sorry, smaller, not larger,) but other than that, they're identical. Even the graphics. Check out the address I mentioned. And it goes by ages, instead of weight too, strangely. The large size, ages 8-15 look a lot older than the kids on the packages here, hopefully they weren't teased for doing the photoshoot if other kids recognized them.
