Along the lines of which single album would you choose if stranded on a deserted island, I was thinking more expansively about which single genre if forced to pick only one. I'd have to go with soul/R&B over rock, pop, jazz and even classical.

Chocolate Necco wafers, while gross, are necessary for gingerbread house roof tiles.

There was once a piece in the Boston Phoenix about disgusting foodstuffs made in New England. Necco wafers was one of them, but the best was about Gorton's fish sticks.
