The fine folks at Young and Smylie sent me this great package of treats this week. In this package was a sheet filled with licorice facts. My favourite facts are candy facts; my second favourite facts are facts that I don’t actually have to do any research at all. I’ve decided to share my double joy with you for the next few days. So here’s today’s licorice fact:“Licorice appears in the Chinese book Shen nung Pen Tsao Ching (Classic Book of Herbs) that was written more than 5,000 years ago. Chinese physicians have used licorice with herbal medicines as a sweetener to mask the bitter taste of medicine.”
