Sofa Showdown - Salted Nut Roll vs. PayDay Bar :-D

For those who've always wondered, Pearson's SALTED NUT ROLL is MUCH more appealing to me, for reasons I cite below (I'm the one who notes it's thrice as big.) They have some other variations, like Peanut Butter. Hey,this is a REAL payday LOL!

Chewing into that nice nougat, covered with NUTS./and nougat..yum. Yum.

Try toppin'THAT, Payday.

[all due respect intended,of course.:)]

Almost 150 years ago, Necco Wafers began their birth!

Welcome back..as anyone who reads this knows, I have had a longtime love affair with Necco Wafers,started way,way,way,way,WAY back in 1847, by the original Willy Wonka (LOLOL)_ O.M.Chase, who'd started his company in a very simple way back east, with great success, though,again, NECCO' as we know them,with multicolored/mulktiflavored format,wouldn't be around bhack that long. The real story began in 1901,with the colors and flavors listed before. I've recently started enjoying these again as of 2015 as noted..I have to go,more later

Necco's Flavors that NEVER were!

 Well, back agaiin 2022, and I AM back now on all my blogs permanently.

Okay, mt longtime passion..superpassion, Necco Wafers

Everyone knows these are

Chocolate-brown

Licorice-black

Cinnamon-white

Clove-purple

Orange, Lemon, and Lime, obvious

But I have always--O-kay, recently-lol-wished for these to be these..

these flavors:

Ginger-gray

Nutmeg-deep brown

Violet-deep purple (hell, if Choward's ®can have it, why not Necco ®®)

Rose-pink

They could each easily be mixed with the eight others-hell, there's room enough in an average Spangler/Necco roll.

And they taste hella good as always (even though they ARE now made outside US, in Mexico,..)

Yep, Necco (turn on dream world mode of mine at this moment:)

Licorice!

Chocolate!

Wintergreen!

Orange!

Cinnamon!

Clove!

Lemon!

Lime!

Nutmeg!

Ginger!

Violet!

Clove!

So, Spangler of Bryan, Ohio, if you ARE reading, please take notice.

Thank you.

Meanwhilst, I'll keep on enjoying them as is until the even better suggesiton is done.

NEW INFORMATION SINCE LAST POST

Hi, back here..I have moved two counties--no, NOT two COUNTRIES LOL-but, TWO COUNTIES..to RIVERSIDE. from LA I have had a surprising very happy new home..we went to El Cajon's

Tom's Farms, est.1971, and had fun and lunch there (me, my mother and our longtime friends).While in the candy store there, there were all kinds of candies reviewed here and elksewhere.

Yes, TOM'S FARMS candies, like CIRCUS PEANUTS, as mentioned back in 2019, 2 yrs ago, and Candy Corn, Chowards, Necco/Spangler Wafers, BBBBats (Worrels),etc.,etc.,etc.,etc.,etc.

Of course, watchinbg diet, and we can't give candy to our beloved bichon frise dog....sorry, Deen..

(A candy lover's dream!) I have had occasional circus peanutds (CPs, as Cybele May has called them-go thru earler posts here) here in Riverside county,as well. Spangler (from their own bag,

at the former Pic/Save/Big Lots, and LIKE banaas,mas they should, NOT as bbq chips)!L:OL

Had Spangler Circus Peanuts from both the CVS brand (barbeque potato chip like) and (from Pic N Save) Spangler brand thremselves (banana), and from Dollar Tree and from Wal*Mart(sic), Melster's (ALWAYS BANANA!) Circus Peanuts. 

Merry Christmas , Happy Holiday and Happy New Year! ALSO,

 I made it, we did, thru the 2020 year..

Had the usual See's candies, and some candy canes.

ANd, Candy corn.

Take care!!

UPDATE: As you may have seen in the description, I have, as of April Fool's 2021, no Foolin'm moved several counties away...and now have a new location, hjave gotten used to o it..

Alright, SpanglerTM's "Sweetjheasrts"TM (nee: "Necco") back in stores!

Well, it's happened. A few days before, on Saturday, February 1, 2020, I found Splanger NeccoTM Sweethearts! In CVS/Pharmacy/La marcary, while waiting tos ee at the LA MIRADA THEATRE, the classic ARSENIC & OLD LACE, a box of Necco Sweethearts by Spangler, and noted the SPANGLER name..! I looked for its sisters and brothers. and then, after five minutes, there it WAS! A whole BOX of Spangler Sweethearts, following in Necco's candy steps.

Sadly, as of March 13, the stupid Covid 19 virus has closed many theatres, but as of mid June, things are opening again..

Delish.

I know I will HAVE some soon..


NOW. Could other Necco revivals from Spangler be far behind...INCLUDING (Necco) WAFERS? Clearly..

And now the NECCO WAFERS ARE BACCCCCK!
