Valentine’s Day is only one day, but bargain Valentine’s Day candy and those chalky AF Necco Sweethearts are forever. If many of us must resign to being an archetypal Dejected Single™, an IDGAF Single™, or whatever Single™ our loved ones perceive us as during the month of February, we frankly deserve better than calcified chocolate that may or may not be wax. So how about some pies curated with lines you probably heard that one time someone you were boning with feels was grinding your heart into dust? TAKING IT.
Eat Your Heart Out is an ongoing photo series that features artisinal-looking baked goods that literally spell out things people say when they are breaking up with you, with the idea of making the worst relationship endings emotionally palatable. The project is the brainchild of Brooklyn-based designer Isabella Giancarlo, who came up with the idea after a breakup last year.
“Break-ups are often so fraught with awkwardness, cliches, and lines that stay with us long after they’ve been said,” she said in an interview with BuzzFeed. “My aim is to allow people to engage with break-up feelings in a new way.”
Engage accordingly.
