When we were kids, it seemed that Licorice tasted so wrong. Similar to olives, it's something that grows on you when you grow up. Compare it to trying weird ice cream flavors or making out for the first time in the backseat of your parents sedan, it just didn't feel right at first. O.K. - maybe the making out felt right - but those other flavors and colors left me cold! Like everything else in life, when you grow up (or at least when you get older) your taste buds mature and now you enjoy food and flavors which you never thought possible. Enter the world of Licorice - that strange place where you can find very unique, chewy and complicated complex flavors exist.

Historically used as a sweetener or for medicinal purposes in some Old World cultures, Licorice is now recognized as "the grandfather of herbs" with references to Chinese herbal mixtures. Evidence is also available from historical Egypt regarding use of licorice in sweetened beverages for the Kings and Pharaohs. Reports of Licorice buried in the tombs and pyramids indicate that Licorice is an "oldie but a goodie" - give or take 2,000 years! Try some today and live like a Pharaoh or just a King!
