I've had some candy flavored with anise. Tastes like licorice to me.
Can I assume that anise flavored candy is safer than this glycyrrhiza stuff?

 

[Darren Lamb]

Rest in power my man.

Very novel that this was an American, my dad was into australian liquorice and mum would get me allsorts as a kid, but most people I know hate black liquorice.

black licorice tastes like television static

This is possibly the best criticism I have ever heard for a food. I'm tempted to try it so I know what television static tastes like.

For people who visualize products made under the Redvines and Twizzlers brands when they hear the word "liquorice", yes.

poor old bertie bassett

I'm guessing this wasn't dollar store size liquorice??

Also, black liquorice is so gross. I love strawberry "liquorice" though.

I kind of want to try some of the other forms of liquorice in this thread. Maybe there's one out there that actually doesn't taste like rubber.

Wow this was one of my board questions. Damn.

Biggest downside IMO is that the candy shells develop sharp edges as they open up and that always fucks up my tongue.

Seriously, what kinda black liquorice are you guys over there even eating considering your aversion to it? Black liquorice and salty liquorice is delish.

Black liquorice is vile.

Strawberry liquorice is where it's at.

The delicious taste of articifial, fake as fuck strawberry flavouring. That shit is disgusting as all fuck.

[Replicant]

It's been well known that high amounts of real licorice is toxic to the body.

As a Swede living abroad, I think salty liquorice/salmiak is what I miss the most.
It's way way up there on the list.

Anise tastes like a mouth migraine.

Looks like rubber, tastes like rubber.

Can all licorice haters please open up a new forum?

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Love licorice, don't fuck with the black kind though.

I used to eat a lot but that much???? Dam, son.

Rest In Peace though, there's worst things than that...
