Do you love ice cream? Häagen-Dazs Japan has discovered a way to get the ice cream to love you back with Häagen Heart Hunting. The promotion was actually created by accident or, more specifically, inspired by the imperfections we find when opening a carton of ice cream.
A lucky two in every one-thousand will actually find a “Clear Heart,” while more ice cream-eaters will find the malformed “Goodbye Heart,” or “Cheating Heart.”

It’s almost Valentine’s Day, and you’ll soon need to present heart-shaped items to your significant-other. To help make this Valentine’s Day one to remember, stop messing around, and take the concept of heart-shaped items literally.
This year, Candy Hearts Made With Real Heart will help express your love… and possible mental issues. The cardiac confections are candy and chocolate-covered jerky made from actual cow heart.
And, before you say “ewww” and “gross,” take a moment to think about the $22 box of chocolates you gave your sweetheart last year. Chocolates that were filled with a mystery goo, one that was obviously toothpaste, and a coconut spackle. DIY some real hearts with help here… and good luck, lover.
