Not gonna lie, I named it that to get more attention and raise several questions.
Mom bought a massive amount of candy and dumped it into a cauldron for the ankle-biters.
This included licorice. Some people hate licorice. I am neutral towards it. I do not seek it out,
nor do I reject it if given to me. It's a very 5/10 candy.
However, the massive amount of licorice causes the entire cauldron to smell like cough syrup.
I pulled out a Kit-Kat and ate it. It tasted like licorice. "Oh s**t." I thought.
I immediately took out a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup (My favorite candy, 10/10).
I ate it. It tasted like licorice.
What the f**k.
licorice is the devil's food. I don't know a single person who actually likes it.
I don't eat a lot of candy at all. If I do, It's Juju Fruits. I eat the black ones. I like them.
They usta have this gum called Black Jack. It was licorice flavored. I loved that gum!
Been such a long time I can't remember if I like licorice or not! I used to! Maybe... I think...
red licorice is ok
black licorice is pure evil

Mom brought home black licorice ice cream and made me take a bite.
At first it tasted kinda good. Then it kicked me in the tongue and I gagged.
Nasty.
You think black licorice is bad wait until you try absinthe, guaranteed to make you hate yourself for trying it.
I eat licorice. I drink Sambuca. Go ahead, hate on me!
IIIIiiiii got in trouble with the credit card last month, so I can't afford to buy Halloween candy for the kiddies this year............

For some reason, I read this line as Mom bought a massive amount of coke.
Believe me, it completely changed how I read the rest of the post.

Oh, yeah. Along with Pepsin and Clove, it was my favorite, as well. Sometimes you can still find it. The 1st flavored gum to be sold in the U.S., and the 1st gum to come in sticks.

Licorice is one flavor whatever they call that "red" stuff it's not licorice. When i was young I didn't like that flavor, but now... I can relish it. I hated "hot" when i was a kid too. Now I'm the type to try the scotch bonnet. Taste matures. But I still hate whiskey! :question:

Every time I see this thread's title I think, that sounds like something a cannibal would enjoy.
I just listened to a story on the LaVar Burton Reads podcast while I went for a run and he happened to mention that while he was growing up on a military base in Germany he discovered black licorice was his favorite candy.
kevin and ron, check out " olde tyme candy " online, there's several different stores. i get my violet sachet, royal cherry hard candy and indian brand punkin seeds from one, along with quench gum.
* and i DETEST anything that tastes like black licorice, which limits my greek food consumption in a big way. *
