Necco wafers.
Life-Savers
Anyone else remember the "Book of Life Savers", a bunch of different flavored rolls in a carrying case? I haven't thought of those in a long time. I and my siblings used to get them for Christmas presents sometimes, and there were almost always chocolate coins in our stockings. <nostalgia>
No offense to you Necco lovers..but ugh! That was one candy I could not get into!
If you made your sister eat the black ones and the white ones, the rest were pretty good. And you could pretend they were communion wafers, too. Once in a while they would sell all-chocolate packages.
Thanks for reminding me , We always played communion with Necco wafers .
I kinda like them. BlackJack gum is a good nostalgia 'candy' for me.Necco Wafers are a candy wafer made by the United States-based company Necco, short for the New England Confectionery Company. Necco started making candy wafers in 1847 and introduced the "Necco Wafers" brand in 1912.
Necco rolls contain eight flavors and colors: lemon (yellow), orange (orange), lime (green), clove (purple), cinnamon (white), wintergreen (pink), licorice (black), and chocolate (brown). Entire rolls of chocolate wafers are also available in certain locations.
In the 1930’s, Admiral Byrd took 2½ tons of Necco Wafers to the South Pole, practically a pound a week for each of his men during their two-year stay in the Antarctic.[1]
The American Government requisitioned a major portion of the production of Necco Wafers during World War II. The candy does not melt and is practically indestructible during transit, making it ideal for shipping overseas to the troops.
Necco wafers are often used as stand-ins for communion wafers by children who are practicing for the Eucharist.
