eat your heart out

I eat two at a time.

Preferably two of the same color, at the same time.

Although green and yellow make a pretty good pair.

I like white the best.

I like orange the least.

I think there's a disproportionate number of pinks in a bag.

And a small number of whites.
Which makes me keep eating through the bag
in an effort to sift through the pinks to find the colorless ones.
Brach's is my favorite brand.*
They're kind of soft - "dissolvey" is what we call them in my family.

I rarely read the messages on the hearts.

It's mostly about sugar consumption.

I hate how the sugar film gets stuck all over my mouth, 
like a filthy sugar sweater.

But I can't stop eating them once I start.

How do you eat your hearts?

*Jess and I both agree that Brach's has increased the thickness of their hearts. Are we crazy?
