Gross garbage "candy".
Candy corn while also gross is better than black licorice. |
|
So since red licorice isn’t really licorice….isn’t black licorice really just “Licorice “?

My sister lived in Japan for a few years. She said Japanese folks hate black licorice. Also hate root beer. They don't like that anise or whatever that flavor is.

GF loves it. I hate it.
I don't like licorice flavored drinks either. |
|
It's disgusting. Not quite as disgusting as the horehound candy my great grandmother liked, which is like supercharged black licorice.

One of Grand Funk's best songs, IMHO.
Grand Funk Railroad - Black Licorice (excellent sound) |

Quoted: My hardware store has some good black licorice. View Quote You can’t get the real deal anymore. The USDA says it’s no good for you because it depletes the potassium in your body so all the US candy manufacturers have dumbed it down. I used to buy the Haribo Wheels that were made in Germany from Amazon & they’re history too. |

Antiviral properties and tastes great too. Awesome for a sore throat too.

Liked it since forever.
I remember as a toddler getting little pipe shaped black licorice at an old time-y cigarette stand/magazine stand/candy stand outside of a tavern on the sidewalk. My grandpa who lived 2 blocks away and was retired due to a stroke always gave me a Sen-Sen as we watched the Three Stooges when I was 4 or 5. He'd laugh his ass off until he choked, bang his crutch on the floor and say "They kill-a me!". As a Boy Scout, my Scoutmaster was a retired botany prof. at the local community college. He showed us how to find licorice fern and chew on the root or make tea. Good licorice memories for sure. Thanks OP. |

My wife loves the stuff but I can’t stand it. The only licorice flavored item I can usually tolerate is when we leave the Indian restaurant and have the Anise flavored little sprinkles they give you, I can take a scoop of those and be fine but regular licorice even the real deal good shit, fuck that

I like it. Also anise as a breath freshener/palate cleaner after meals is good.

Ive had all the black licorice flavoring I’ll ever need when I worked at a Jagermeister sponsored bar.
|

Jager, yes. I occasionally get a box of mixed jelly belly's, all the black ones get tossed.

Black licorice is the only licorice.
Any other color or flavor as good as they may be is not licorice. Redvines for life. Both black and red are good. Twizzlers is disgusting plastic. |

I've never known of a candy so polarizing as black licorice.
People either love it, or hate it. There is no moderate like or tolerance for the stuff. Give me all the black licorice. |

View Quote The Swedes love it, especially that Turkish pepper shit. That, or the heavily salted kind. I just like plain old black licorice. |

Vile stuff.
Whoever thought to mix those in with fruit candy deserves a swift kick to the face. |
