Candy Hearts

Anyone remember those little candy hearts that come in different colors and have little messages or little words on them, like " U R Cool", etc.? We (the whole class) used to exchange them with valentine's day cards sometimes in school. And, speaking of valentine's day cards, do you remember the little cards, some of them with glitter on them, and there was always a "teacher card" in every pack too? It was always neat to get a pack of superhero valentine cards - some to exchange and some to keep, lol.

Sounds kinda silly now, I guess, but it was fun all the same.

Yes, and yes. I never liked those candies. Tasted like chalk to me. (And yes, having been a hyper and curious child, I know what chalk tastes like.) I don't remember cards with glitter, though. But I do remember themed ones, like the Superhero ones. I don't remember which ones I got, though. Man, it's been a while...

Agreed, I never liked the candy hearts. The chalky taste is the first thing that comes to mind, really.

I love those little candy hearts and their chalky texture!

I remember the cards somewhat, but I don't remember ever seeing any specifically for a teacher. Most of the ones I remember had Disney characters on them from whatever movies were out back then.

Ah, good times back then. I never tried the candy hearts, that I can remember. They looked like chalk and felt like chalk, so I expected them to taste that way too. Kids today have it so much better. They can get M&Ms with those kinds of messages, which actually taste pretty good.

I don't recall glitter cards, either, but I do remember all the little themed ones. You know, they still make those sometimes. I see them in the stores a lot, usually based on movies.
