Hmmm...
I fondly remember the candy "buttons" on the roll of paper, but more because they were unique and fun than tasty.
As iconic candies go, Necco Wafers are most famous to me because they were notoriously the worst treat in the bottom of the bag at Halloween.
I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that the company has been kept afloat for years (maybe decades) by Valentine's sales of Sweethearts ( http://www.necco.com/Candy/Sweethearts/History.aspx ).
I'm here in Massachusetts and wish local companies well, but it's not like they haven't had time to come up with something better than Necco wafers.
