Oh, who cares about those stupid Valentine's Day hearts? Sky Bars could be coming back

Associated Press reports that while NECCO's old Valentine's Day hearts may be gone this year - be honest, who actually ever ate those things? - the owner of a Sudbury gourmet-food shop won an auction to the rights to the Sky Bar, and she is now working with the bankrupt company's longtime research director on how to produce the four-chambered candy bar in small batches.

I still miss
Squirrel Nut Bars. The ones from Squirrel Brand (defunct) and not the Necco updated versions.
Conversation Hearts
Shut up and take my money
Sky Bars are the best; I will not argue about this
Nice to have them around
Even if they didn't get eaten, reading the messages on the hearts was always fun.
Before e-mail and texting, there was "FAX ME".
Much longer article about this in the Globe
You may want to link to this instead of to the AP article:
Sudbury’s Duck Soup is saving the Sky Bar
YES!!!!
YES!!!!
My teeth hurt just thinking about those things
.
Such great news!
And Clark bars too? But what about peach blossoms!? Christmas just isn’t the same without peanut butter covered in tooth-destroying sugar.
HUZZAH!!!!!
My favorite candy bar. Still have a stash of Sky Bars, Clark Bars and Necco wafers....
I have Necco wafer withdrawal
I have Necco wafer withdrawal and feverishly search for them even though they aren't made anymore.
If they start making these
If they start making these things in dark chocolate, I predict diabetes in my future.
I will miss
I will miss these. Love the bigger ones or just plain Necco Wafers. Doesn't seem like that is a popular candy to like.
Sorry...
...not a Sky Bar fan.
FYI - I bought the most delicious Valentine’s Day hearts at Russo’s Candy House in Saugus...YUM!
