The people who make "Sweet hearts" are jacking with the recipe

[Okla-homey]

You know, those chalky hearts with the short sayings thereon. They are made by the "Necco" wafer people up in Maine.

Reported this morning on NPR; brighter colors, softer texture, updated sayings like "tweet me" and new flavors.

I'm not sure I'm down with it.

[OUHOMER]

It sucks getting old, change is hard

[1890MilesToNorman]

Don't be blaming Maine, them boyz is in Mass!

[Frozen Sooner]

They update the messages every few years, I think. I remember getting one that said "fax me." Which seems like a fairly unromantic way to go about things.

[Crucifax Autumn]

Fax me harder!

[Breadburner]

F.M.I.T.B.

[Jacie]

They'd be hard pressed to make them worse. They are just heart-shaped Tums.

[StoopTroup]

Suck my tweet

[Veritas]

Yeah, the new formula succs.

I went to Dollartree and bought them out of the old formula ones.

[StoopTroup]

I'm not sure which ones we bought. I'll get back to ya. I was afraid to look earlier as I might try to put myself into a chocolate coma if I went in to see what the Valentine Day Bunny left the kids. :D

Necco wafers are teh suc. Bleccch. The only way they could be worse is to make weird flavors like Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans.

Damn things already taste like bogeys. Or so I've heard...

[StoopTroup]

Yep. We got the sucky ones. I wonder if they'll mix with the dog's food?

[Stitch Face]

Do they taste different? Or are they just "brighter" and "softer?"

[VeeJay]

I been chompin' on the cheap knockoffs from China.

[StoopTroup]

I think they taste brighter.

[LilSooner]

They taste like crap! What is up with this stupid blue flavor that everything has now. First they did it with my sweet tarts they put that blue flavor and turned the green from lime to apple (bleh). I hate blue flavor and I hope it dies in a fire.

[StoopTroup]

They are slowly backing you off the High Fructose Corn Syrup before the law suits are filed.
