As I was editing a story today about the candy-maker Necco, I didn't realize it at the time, but I was munching on their Sweathearts candy as I was editing. Necco has been making the candy since before the Civil War.
It's Valentines Day on Saturday, so you are bound to have one of the pink and red boxes of the message hearts somewhere in the workplace. I've seen at least three this afternoon alone.
Don't forget to check out our story on Friday on the candy hearts. It looks like Necco is expanding their offerings. In March they are offering the "Twilight" series message hearts. I guess this begs the question: Is candy recession-proof?
