Melt margarine in a 9 x 13 inch baking pan - either in microwave or in pre-heating oven. Mix in cracker crumbs, wheat germ, sunflower seeds, and figs; press in an even layer. Pour non-fat sweetened condensed milk evenly over crumb mixture. Top with coconut and walnuts, pressing down lightly. Bake in a 350 F. oven for 25 to 30 minutes until toasty brown. Cool. Serve from pan in small squares or break into toffee-like pieces. Enjoy like candy, or trail mix, or top fresh fruit or ice cream with melt-in-your-mouth California Confection.
