While holding opinions about miniatures, what is your impression of black licorice? Love it or hate it? |

Hate it. Will fish out all of the black jelly beans to make sure I don't eat any by accident. Luckily my dad likes them, so I sometimes give them to him… Damon. |

It's not an everyday item, but sometimes it's nice. However, it does present the wonderful quality of ensuring one's candy dish is generally pilfer-proof (if that's a concern). How few people like it these days… |

Callard and Bowser….what's not to love!
Unfortunately, now i'm older and it aggravates the Blood Pressure a bit. |

The only kind. The red kind is some other flavor, cherry or strawberry or something, not licorice. |

Salt and sweet/salt Licorice is great. Sweet Licorice not so much (or at all) |

Hate licorice of any sort or color. Even the smell makes me gag. |
| StCrispin | 30 Aug 2016 1:16 p.m. PST |
my whole family loves Dutch salt licorice. must be genetic. which is great because no one ever wants it from us. I have to call out anyone who calls the red stuff licorice. its not! licorice is flavored from licorice root. hence the name. the red stuff is just red candy. twizzlers of any kind aren't really licorice anyway. try the real stuff! |

Red Vines > Twizzlers – that's an easy one. |

Love. Even chewing liquorice root. |

I agree that Callard and Bowser is some of the best stuff going. |

Raold Dahl wrote in his book, "Boy" that his friend's father (who was a doctor, so he should know) said that the licorice factories made it by boiling rats and squeezing out their boiled guts and then drying them and slicing up the boiled dried rat guts and selling them as licorice whips. A likely story as any. Hate it. |

Bad for me so of course I love it. |

Salty, black and Scandinavian is how I like it. Liquorice, that is. The ammonium chloride gives it that certain something – smells like cat wee, but tastes delicious. |

Love it and its a treat that only I will eat in our house. I like both the salt and the sweet versions. Both are great. |
| Shagnasty | 31 Aug 2016 2:11 p.m. PST |
Love the sweet but haven't had the salt. |
