Today I got to try two different flavors of Necco Wafer candy. I honestly could not tell the difference in flavor but they were definitely chalky. They were thin circular bits that also gave a crunchy feel to them after biting down on them. I felt that no matter what color each one was, they tasted relatively the same and reminded me of this specific valentines day candy that I grew up enjoying. The aftertaste stained my mouth with Necco Wafer smell but it was worth the try.
Good connection to Valentine hearts. “Stained” is an interesting term. Lots of connotations.
