Wacky Wafers®, originally part of the The Willy Wonka® Candy Company line, were about the size of an American silver dollar coin and came in five flavors; banana, green apple, watermelon, orange and strawberry. The original, (and still the best version) were sold in a clear plastic wrapper, appearing as a long strip of multi-colored wafers. Over the years, the Willy Wonka® Candy Company redesigned the famous wafer many times from a smaller version, (the size of a quarter in a 10-pack with all different flavors) to the size of a Bottle Cap®, (sold in long stick Spree®-type packs). Later on, they changed the shape yet again, designing them more like Flintstone® Vitamins rather than a larger candy wafer and placing them in tart n' tinys® type box filled with the miniature candy. Fans felt alienated since they could not find the original wafers. Later, Wacky Wafers were discontinued as part of the regular product line when Nestlé purchased the Willy Wonka® brand and they felt the wafers were too close to SweeTARTS®.
