Oh No!
I'm sorry & just personal opinion here but those things are awful! I used to hate getting them in my Halloween bag.
Glad I'm not the only one
who thinks NECCO wafers were ghastly.

I never liked it
Sky Bars always seemed like a terrible compromise: two decent fillings, one meh, one just weird. Fudge, caramel, white and mystery.

I'll be the lone appreciator. Except for the liquorish tasting ones.
Those are clove
and they're the best ones.
The grey ones and the brown
The grey ones and the brown ones were the best, in that order.
Agreed
Followed closely by -- and I realize I may be very alone in this -- the pink ones.

Or maybe you meant licorice.

Whoops! That must have been the wine talking/spelling. Thanks for correcting. ;-)

Goes to show u how strong the following of enthusiasts of Necco Wafers, Moxie, Pez, Fluff, and Betty Page rockabilly fashion is!! Luv it!!
C'mon: are you sure you're
getting enough bone meal in your diet?
(Haven't bought a roll in years: it was an all-chocolate one: not, in my estimation, terrible.)
Saw some

in the “not a fan” camp, but just enjoy knowing they’re still a thing.
Unique
Where else can you get clove flavored candy?
Beeman's
Beeman's gum, in such weird and wonderful flavors as clove, teaberry, Black Jack (licorice) and Beeman's Pepsin Gum, the gum of aviators!

Every Catholic or Ex Catholic
Know Necco Wafers are just a little better than Communion wafers. :)
in my childhood,
Necco wafers WERE communion wafers.
Excellent sub for glucose tabs
Insulin pump wearing diabetics become candy connoisseurs of a kind.
Necco Wafers are one of my preferred "break glass in case of emergency" candies.
