everybody has their price. what's yours?

for me, i could say $1 million dollars, but honestly... if somebody offered my $1000 to do so, i'd eat ONE piece (but i wouldn't go lower than $1000). so that's my price. $1000 for one piece.

PS - it's not food shaming if the food is evil (e.g., Brussels Sprouts).

    I'd do it for $10. You don't want to know what I'd do for $1000.

    I love black licorice, but let's be honest. It's pretty obvious there's quite a bit wrong with me.

    There is no amount of money that would do it for me, seriously.. :noway: I couldn't do it. :sick:

    I can't even stand to be around when someone is eating it, just the smell makes me feel sick. :sick:

    When I was a kid, none of the kids I knew liked it so we always had tons of leftover black jellybeans.

    As an adult I now have 2 different friends who love it so I give it to them when it comes around, but I insist they don't eat it around me lol. It's like here, take this nastiness away and don't let me see you with it! :laugh: :huh: and they're all like; Great!!! :love:

    Isn't all liquorice black?


    I heard recently about Scandinavian Liquorice. Like liquorice, but with a mountain of salt added

    I'll pass...

    It would take a LOT of Cash. I would want it in my hand before I popped a piece in my mouth and chewed it. Now does this eating mean also swallowing it? If so the price just quadrupled. :bigsmile:

    My husband is from one of these countries. He loves it. They have one I can't even put on my tongue because it's so gross. 2/3 of all their candy and desert is black licorice flavored. Not kidding. Don't take the brown ice cream with "chocolate coating" it's probably licorice.

    You take all the money Bill Gates has. You add all the money Warren Buffet has. And you are about 1/10th the way there.

    Yuck.

    nope, you couldn't force me or pay me enough and I love my cash, but, no...ikk just thinking of it reminds me of Zambuka (not sure on spelling...when I was 15). I tried it it not realizing it tasted like licorice and ever since then, no.....
