Me either, I don't like licorice. Actually, I don't care for Skittles

But I'm assuming Eric likes both. It's almost like Cracker Jacks, a prize inside

Funny thing, he hates licorice, but he was so surprised, and in a weird happy way........I would have run to the trash and spit it out!!!!!!

I hate licorice too!
and since we had a cat show sponsored by Skittles I don't really enjoy them either - I guess they're those little fruit candies you're talking about?

Well, Twizzlers are fine as long as they're strawberry or chocolate

But black licorice ... blech! And butterscotch ... blech again!

Over the river and through the woods...
If that had been me, I would have been checking to bag to see if there was a prize for the person that gets the licorice flavored skittles! You know, one of those weird "Willy Wonka" type promotions.


That said, I couldn't handle a licorice skittles. I actually snagged what I thought were M&Ms from my coworker (with his permission) last week, and here they were skittles. When you're expecting chocolate and get skittles it is very disturbing!

now that's disgusting (at least if it was my bag). Unless it's the Twizzler kind or stuff, I don't do licorice flavored anything. Medicine tastes better.

As far as I know, the Mars Company doesn't make licorice candies. Are you sure that black object was licorice?

He didn't even see if it was black, he just suddenly had a burst of licorice flavor! I was more disturbed about it then he was, obviously.......

those were my thoughts, I actually thought of the part when they sing I've got a golden ticket, or something like that. It has been awhile seen I saw that movie

Yuck!


About 12 years ago or so when they had Jolly Ranchers Jolly Jellies (kinda like fruit shaped gumdrops with JR flavors), I got a black blob of licorice too, which i thought was a misshapen grape thing til it was in my mouth. My cousin called the company and told them about it. The funny thing was they asked if I could send it to them, and she was all dramatic like, "Well, NO! She spit it in the GARBAGE!" It's so funny, I can still hear the tone of her voice on that day. We still talk about that too.. (do we have no lives?? hehe)
