Do you like black jellybeans?

Avoiding excess sugar so sadly no jelly beans of any color for me. But I did like all jelly beans, I think I tended to sort out the black and eat those separately because I didn't like going back and forth between licorice and regular. When I was a kid I think we chewed licorice root but the memory is so faint now I don't know if we actually ate the root or spit it out or maybe my memory is totally wrong.
 

Hate black jelly beans & liquorice.

If I’m buying jelly beans in bulk, I move the scoop really really slowly so I don’t get many black ones. Any that I do get are given to DH.
Thank goodness that they sell jelly beans of many flavors (in separate bins). Or they do at our grocery store.11-jellies-finished-jpg-1517946580[1].jpg

Sen-Sen was a type of breath freshener originally marketed as a "breath perfume" in the late 19th century by the T. B. Dunn Company and then produced by F&F Foods until they discontinued the product in July 2013. Sen-Sen bore a strong similarity to Vigroids, a liquorice sweet made by Ernest Jackson & Company, Ltd.

Sen-Sens were available in small packets or cardboard boxes. Similar to a matchbox of the time, an inner box slid out from a cardboard sleeve revealing a small hole from which the tiny Sen-Sen squares would fall when the box was shaken.

Sen-Sen's ingredients were liquorice, anise, gum arabic, maltodextrin, sugar, and natural and artificial flavors.
