 Not a fan of it myself. My husband loves it, especially the Australian licorice which he buys a lot. Two bags of licorice are on my grocery list for tomorrow's pick-up! (I do curb-side pick-up these days). Delish. How was your licorice? Even the name...licorice...makes it sound delicious.

I haven't seen that brand. Looks good! It was! That is why I only put 4 pieces of each in that little bowl and put the packets away. If I have the bags lying around I will scoff em all in one hit.

Didn't eating too much black licorice kill someone recently? Enjoy with care, Mr. Cheese!
Sincerely, a worrywart.

I think of those things as single serving basic too Tc Lol I'll try to do like you. That's a good idea. Just a few out and put the rest away+!

No thank you.  What is it about it you don't like Marv? One guy told me the other day that he finds the taste too strong.

I'm afraid my taste buds can only handle Red Vines.

Toasted Cheese I'm the same way When I would eat Black Crows the same thing happened. They're actually a very dark green which makes them look black

Why do you drink Sambucca if it makes you gag?

While I watch my egg ball games, the chaps and I will toss back a few sambuccas after a score.

This is what they look like  I could eat those, no gelatine: ngredients 'CORN SYRUP, SUGAR, MODIFIED FOOD STARCH, NATURAL AND ARTIFICIAL FLAVORS, ARTIFICIAL COLORS (INCLUDING FD&C BLUE 1, YELLOW 5, RED 40), LICORICE EXTRACT.' The artificial colouring will be the poo green culprit though I would say.
