From the article:

“It’s more than licorice sticks. It could be jelly beans, licorice teas, a lot of things over the counter. Even some beers, like Belgian beers, have this compound in it,”

Me: Oh, so that’s why I feel so terrible after drinking 15 Belgian beers........

My grandmother used to tell me black licorice was poisonous. I swear, that woman NEVER lied!

Black licorice also turns your poop green, do we need any more evidence that it is bad for you?

If he had just continued to eat the red ones.

Well, that’s one less thing I have to worry about. It’ll never happen to me.

I imagine that all the candy dishes in Hell are filled with black licorice and circus peanuts.

Replace licorice with shrimp and that’s how I want to go out.

I’m sure the licorice was the only thing that contrib uted to his heart attack...

He collapsed while having lunch at a fast-food restaurant.

Reminds me of the people with “no preexisting conditions” that have died from C ovid-19 who seem to be a hundred or so pounds overweight and haven’t had so much as a physic al in a decade. Lotta sick people think they’re perfectly healthy in this country.

I’m sure this country’s generally poor health has absolutely nothing to do with our obscene death rate......./s

And that’s not even the first reason to not eat black licorice

I like black licorice, but then again my favorite candy is necco wafers and I get made for of for it so maybe I’m weird.

Necco wafers! My favorite, too. So grateful that they are back in production.

People are in denial about the actual dangers of being obese and overweight, as well as the risk posed by normally manageable conditions. I had a boss once who casually claimed that his diabetes and sleep apnea shouldn't count as pre-existing conditions for life insurance, because he was managing them both properly. Lot of people walking around with those, and/or high blood pressure who say "I'm perfectly healthy, except for..." or who just figure a prescription drug they take every day makes it so the problem doesn't exist anymore.

Same, after a whole bottle of Ouzo. Still doesn't explain why that advanced bar tending class at the community college made me forget how to drive home, though.
