About Licorice strips
Licorice strips are chewy, sweet confections made primarily from wheat flour, sugar, corn syrup, and licorice root extract, which gives them their distinct flavor. Originating in Europe, particularly Scandinavia and the Netherlands, licorice is a traditional treat that has since gained global popularity. While black licorice contains genuine licorice root extract, many modern varieties—especially red licorice—use artificial flavors or fruit-based alternatives. Licorice provides small amounts of antioxidants from the licorice root, but it is primarily considered a sugary snack. Excessive consumption of black licorice can pose health risks due to glycyrrhizin, a compound that may affect blood pressure and potassium levels. Red licorice typically lacks licorice root, making it a less risky, though still sugar-rich, option. As a treat, licorice strips should be eaten in moderation, especially for individuals sensitive to its natural compounds or looking to limit added sugars in their diet.
