So we had a going away lunch for our friend from Sweden ( she was moving to Maryland, duh). My roommate made a great brunch of breakfast burritos and chocolate banana bread. Our Swedish friend announces “I brought dessert”. Rock! Swedish stuff! Supposedly it was black licorice.
WRONG.
It was black licorice coated in the nastiest thing ever invented: ammonium chloride. Look it up.
I spit out my candy. It tastes like rancid fishy salt butt. AWFUL.
This is the worst thing I have ever eaten.
She had 3 different kinds of this stuff; each one held the nasty goods in a different place.
Worst tasting thing ever.

gross! definitely sounds worse than the durian fruit stuff, although i would think you’d have maybe been warned by the fact that it was supposed to be black licorice. that stuff is gross on its own.

I feel somewhat obligated to defend this delightful treat (just incase your other devoted readers happened to get the wrong impression of it after reading such harsh untruths….). Salt licorice is in fact a surprisingly delightful and complex taste sensation; balancing both sweet and salt all at once…and the glue that brings it all together…black, lovely licorice!
