Not very satisfying
Not very fond of this candy. They are very bland and stale tasting to me. The flavors are not very good. They were popular when my grandparents were growing up but not something I want to eat
I like them
These are some tasty treats. I love the fact that each disk has just a little bit of a different flavor! They are so sweet and delicious.
Candy that is still a favorite
These wafers have been around for a long time. They still taste as great now as they did when I was a kid. I love the different flavors and the ease of tasting them all. Get some today so you too can enjoy a sweet flavorful delicious delight.
Old but yummy
This takes me back to times when love was much easier. Spending lazy summer days with my grandmother. Ya it has it's chalky moments but still good
Great to keep in a jacket pocket
I am a type 1 diabetic and these are great to keep in my jacket pocket and if my sugar starts to go low I can put a couple of these in my mouth and suck on them with out anyone knowing that my sugar is dropping. The taste is great and if you want you can chew them instead of ducking them and they are very crunchy. I think these are a very good purchase

Blast from the past
It brings me back to my childhood to suck on a piece of Necco Wafer candy!!! I love the distinctive taste of the wafer in my mouth. I don’t find any room or reason to change it.
Oldie but goodie
I love this. I remember going to the meat market and they always had these there right up at the counter there and I would always grab one or two of them and by the time I got home, they would be gone love love love them.
Oh when they’re fresh
I love this candy, since I was little…but you gotta be careful because you can find a pack of wafers that are a little bit too hard for your teeth.. but when you get that pack that is fresh and you bite into an echo wafer and it’s not super hard and it’s not soft and it’s just perfect, that’ll sure make this lady happy..
Tastes horrible
I don't like these, I think the flavor is gross. Nobody in my family likes these. The texture is also not good. I feel like I am chewing antacids because of the chalkiness.
