I bought a tin of them a while back… I had been on a liqourice kick but didn’t want to get the usual good n plenty’s that I usually would go for. I tried one, but didn’t initially like them.

Then recently I found them again in a disorganized drawer, and decided, what the hey, I might like them now.

Indeed, I do like them now and will pop one in my mouth whenever I get the craving to eat something (I’m kinda on a diet) that is bad for me. Considering three pieces only have ten calories, I’m hardly concerned.

I will say this: I hated liquorice as a kid. Love it now!

Love the Liquorice Altoids! Yes, they are spicy-hot, but they really do actually have a nice licorice flavor (imo). Unfortunately, Trader Joe’s has discontinued stocking the item. Where else can I find them now??

I LOVE the Liquorice Altoids most. I also find that I like most foods unadulterated because of my sensitive taste buds. Dichotomy.

These were a great favorite of mine and I can’t find them anywhere. I am so sorry to hear that they are no longer being made. They got me through a severe throat infection with no drugs needed and kept my sinuses open. They are definately the best of the Altoids.

I’ve never been tempted to try the licorice Altoids, and after reading this, I’m glad I haven’t. I’m also glad that Callard & Bowser decided not to make licorice one of the varieties of chocolate-dipped Altoids.

I buy these at Trader Joe’s all the time. I think they’re fantastic. Yes, they are spicy, but liquorice should have a little kick!
