Chrome auto-fill text unreadable

If anyone using Google Chrome is seeing this ↓

Where Chromes AutoFill Text entry fields suggestions are unreadable, it's a bug affecting high contrast themes that has was reported early in 2020 with a version of Chrome >84. On my daily driver with Chrome v102 It's back to doing it again.

The work-around is the press the Left Alt + Shift + Print Screen keys to temporarily switch off Chromes High Contrast mode. The same 3-key toggle will turn it back on when required.
