Nabisco Mini Nilla Wafers
As wafers go, mini Nillas rank up there. They’re right next to the regular-sized Nillas on the store shelf and probably offered as an alternative necessary to certain recipes. I wasn’t taken by the packaging: they featured Tony Stewart and Ryan Newman, two race car drivers, on the front, …
