Unfortunately, these days it feels like there’s poison in almost everything, as if they’re trying to kill us faster.
Not a shitpost, but don’t eat too much black licorice all at once, it can cause heart problems. Too much of the glycyrrhizin produced naturally in the plant’s root that’s used to make black licorice causes your kidneys to flood potassium out into your blood and it’ll mess up the electrical signals in your heart. You have to eat like two bags a day for two weeks though.
Most licorice candy is actually made from anise root, which has no glycyrrhizin.
Eh, I can’t eat it anymore, anyway. Gives me a headache.

Too honest to be coming from this FDA
-At least- The Netherlands, Sweden and Finland are taking an offense !

I know this a shitpost, because yet another food item legitimately has shit in it, this is now a constant problem in America.
I can only presume it’s because the workers are treated extremely badly, remunerated poorly, and the corpos face no consequences for apparently disgusting factories, and there’s no regulations?
There’s no reason this should happen in a modern factory, there should be three hand wash stations before a worker even gets close to the food.
“American food tastes like shit”
Nah, it’s just that some people don’t like the flavor of anise.
Okay but for real a little anise in a few recipes makes them taste right. I do not like the taste of black licorice but I keep a little star anise in the spice cupboard and a small piece makes ramen taste right.
Yeah but you have to keep your anise clean and hygienic if you want people to eat it
Sir, this is a Wendy’s.
Liquorice allsorts were a fixture of my childhood. Haven’t had them in decades.
Edit to add: I call the pelotons of road cyclists in their colourful sponsored jerseys ‘The Liquorice Allsorts Crew’.
I want to stay in bed, eating black licorice.
🤘
It’s like eating a tire in the best way
More for me.
Current fda is so fucked they probably like black licorice.
Laughs in Dutch
They’d be correct for once!
The chocolate one is also gross and weird and yet you end up eating all of it.
Well, now I want to try a peanut butter and black licorice sandwich on sourdough toast with butter.
I bet that would be amazing.
We’re gonna need a name for this sandwich, too.

It tastes like shit and there is some evidence it even lowers testosterone. It has no redeeming qualities
In that case, foreign armies could deploy millions of bags of them at invading US military, turning them Low-T and making Pete Hegseth fire them! Tactics. Always tactics.
