“They sure don’t make’em like they used to”- came to mind when I opened my first box of Sweethearts Conversational Hearts this Valentines Day season. I wanted to make my VDAY “I Heart You!” Treet Box speak the words of love via the little chatty candies. I was seriously disappointed at my options! The hearts were just not “speaking my language”! They had comments on them like “text me” & “hey you”. What happened to the classics? I wanted the “love you”, “say yes”, “xoxo”. Which they did have, but few and far between. Which leads me to my next gripe- I think the machine that is printing onto the little hearts has a drinking problem. A very serious one that probably involves bourbon of some sort- judging from the slurred angle of the lettering. Most of the hearts in my boxes either had NO words at all (what kinda conversational heart is that), the words were barely legible, or the lettering was falling off the heart. Sweethearts…I hate for it to get to this point, but I think it’s time we see other candies. It’s not you, it’s me…really.
