Love Hearts

Anecdote

I got some Love Hearts in a bag of retro sweets for Christmas.

They're always changing the words it says on Love Hearts, to keep them contemporary, but some seem to endure. The packet I had included one reading "YOU'RE FAB", which there used to be in the 1960s (to the amusement of my dad, whose initials were FAB). Anyway, whenever I get a new packet, I tip out all the sweets and read them.

Then, I make sentences out of them. I made this one this time round:



They don't scan well, but they read: "YOU CAN SUGAR LIPS TOO MUCH".

I suppose I could have licked them to make the letters stand out, then photograph them rather than scan them. Instead, though, I ate them.

Pro tip: if you want to feel an uneasy bubbling in your stomach, eat an entire packet of Love Hearts in under ten minutes.
