Candy Critic: 4pm Licorice Facts

Next Thursday is National Licorice Day, and the folks at Red Vines have sent me a whole mess of licorice facts to share with you guys.  So I'm going to give you a new fact, every day, till National Licorice Day.

Licorice Root was found in great quantities in the tomb of King Tut among his gold, jewelry and art treasures. It was presumed that King Tut wanted to take the root with him on his journey to the next world so that he could make his sweet drink "Mai sus" when he got there.

Thanks gang at Red Vines!
