Clayton: What are you doing? Laura: Looking over our trick-or-treat route from last night. I know if we analyze it, we can do better next year. I ended up with two boxes of Boston baked beans. That's wasted candy potential. Clayton: Okay. So it wasn't perfect. Laura: And a sleeve of necco wafers! How did this happen on my watch??

Second strip to refer to Necco wafers as bad candy! I liked them. BTW, KaminoNeko – Boston Baked Beans are candy. Chocolate covered peanuts, I think.

Boston Baked Beans are candy coated peanuts made by the Ferrara Candy Company of Chicago IL.Ferrarausa.com

I like Boston Baked Beans AND Necco wafers, especially the purple ones (clove-flavored).

Once a year is good for Neccos. I really enjoy them but tire of them quickly.

This year I got a bag of Necco Halloween peanut butter taffy, the kind they wrap in black or orange wax paper. I love this, and it’s hard to find.

It’s all a matter of taste. Now if I got a bag of Skittles® I’d be miffed. But the great day-after-Halloween activity is candy swapping!

Necco Wafers, my favorite candy of all time. Especially the anise flavored ones!

Neccos aren’t my favorite, but I like them once in a while. they finally started selling whole rolls of just the “chocolate” flavored ones, which were my favorite.

Necco wafers are great. At least they have flavor. Smarties are the worst candy ever. Mary Janes (those peanut butter and/or molasses toffees in the orange and black wrappers) are a close second.

I was glad someone explained the two boxes Boston Baked Beans reference. I couldn’t imagine them toting 48 cans of beans around, but it would stock the larder!!

Necco wafers are still way better than candy corn!

Holy cow; my blood sugar is spiking!.I need to move to another strip before I go into a diabetic coma….BTW, I am diabetic so don’t get your snuggies in a bunch over my “sarcastic” comment! In other words, the sarcasm is on me!

I love Neccos and Boston Baked Beans. The black Neccos the best, but they are all good, and yes the flavor of the black is anise. And Boston Baked Beans are chocolate covered peanuts and yummy. Haven’t been to a movie thearter of late, but they both were standard concession stand candies back in the day, as were Raisinets and Goobers.

Loved Neccos and Boston baked beans (Hard candy coated peanuts that looked liked burnt peanuts.)

Don’t have the BBB or the wafers here. I swear stores have employees at midnight – ripping all the Hallowe’en candy off the shelves and restocking with the Christmas candy. Anything that doesn’t say Hallowe’en never goes on sale. >br>and I am still looking for midges. sigh. guess I will have to visit the candy store.
