Sweethearts are changing flavors. Why?

A part of of most of our childhood’s is changing…and I don’t get it.

The familiar taste of Necco Sweethearts is changing.  This Valentines Day, you’ll find a new, fruitier version of the classic American icons. After 145 years, NECCO has decided to “upgrade” the flavors of its conversation hearts. Here is a list of the new flavors: green apple, blue raspberry, strawberry, lemon, grape, and orange. The wintergreen and the white are now long gone.

I love the original sweethearts.  I actually look for them each year to munch on. Romantic, isn’t it?
