My workplace decked out two conference tables with snacks and I was happy to be the only one who loves black licorice. Mmmm Black Vines.
-
Have you tried black licorice Altoids? They're like the hard version of Blackjack gum.
I'm not into sweets at all. They don't make sense to me. Fruit tastes just as good as any candy so why not just eat that? Salty snacks on the other hand are very good and there's nothing that compares to peanuts and popcorn.

My favorite snack is chips and salsa.
In Scandinavia they have this candy called Turkish Peber that is black licorice hard candy filled with salt in the middle. It's amazing. I've never had the altoids.

liking black licorice must be like liking menthol cigarettes. no one will ever bug you for a taste of your snack!
i hate black licorice but i really love fennel root and star anise. makes no sense.
anyway. salty over sweet for me. i'd inhale a bag of tortilla chips before i'd look twice at a cake.

Sweet. Strawberry rhubarb pie beats any salty snack for me.

No, I was wrong. I thought that was the name of the thing.
*Hershey's* Take 5. Sorry to tease.

Salty!
If I could subsist entirely on kettle chips I would at least consider it. For a long, long time.
-
Forget kettle chips! Give me kettle corn. SWEET AND SALTY BUS. CHOO CHOO!

This baffles me.
My wife puts pretzels in her ice cream.

OH GOD, I fucking love chocolate covered potato chips. I EAT THEM UP.

Can't get enough of them.

target's archer farms brand has an awesome white chocolate drizzled snack mix that hits both the sweet and salty spots... hard.

I really enjoy black licorice, but I tried this stuff they had at World Market called "double salt licorice" or something like that and it was the foulest thing I've ever put in my mouth. I don't know if this is the same thing being discussed in this thread, but ugh. It was like pouring the entire contents of a salt shaker into your mouth at once - almost paralyzingly salty.
-
I'm a bit confused - I usually make the distinction between "(sweet) licorice" and "salt licorice", not "black licorice". Love them all, but I know many people despise salt licorice.

"Jungle Howl", very popular around here. Super salty.

Altoids are made with gelatin. Boo to that.
-
In Slovenia and Croatia they have these little salt boutiques that sell this awesome salt that's harvested from marshes off of the Adriatic. They sell chocolate with salt flower, which is about the most amazing thing ever.

Oh my God! They are so good. Edit: Can you find them in the U.S.? I just remembered where you live.

I love how "indulgent" is code for "holy shit that's a lot of calories."
-
Trail Mix has an absurd amount of calories. Sometimes these teeny tiny packages will say like "Number of Serving per Package: 9" in order that they don't have to list 1,000 + calories.

Do you buy this at Presbyerion (sp?)?
-
Pressbyrån, sure. Pressbyrån ("The Press Bureau") is like Seven-Eleven.
I believe many IKEA stores sell assorted Swedish food, including sweets. You might be lucky and find some Peber there.
