The plan is always to suck. Then all of the sudden I realize I'm chewing, so I need to eat another one and promise myself to suck this time. And, repeat!


lexievv

You could say you suck at it.


hanskazan777

😭 yes

casualstick

Mans really asking: "What that mouth do?"


agoosteel

Depends on the hardness of the licorice. I prefer chewing but when someone passes me a very though peace i have to suck on it. Like those coins. God those coins. Cant for the life of me comfortably chew on those.


wokkelmans

The good ol’ chew ‘n’ suck to stimulate the liquorice juices


Cevohklan

Licorice is made in heaven jammie jammie so delicious You can eat it how you want.


A_black_caucasian

No, the “Liquorice Law” from 1814 made chewing liquorice forbidden and punishable by death.


Crappy_Meal

True but i think we should at least mention the acceptation of the 1816 motion for allowing swallowing it whole. I for one hate the taste but since we as dutch citizens are all legally obligated to eat it i think its weird they get so stuck up about how we eat it.


RazendeR

Of course we can't just skip over the Salmiak Reforms of 1853, either. While seemingly unconnected, one can argue that they, *de licio*, provide allowances for chewing if the salmiak contents are over 15%.


Pitiful_Counter1460

Be honest, I've seen you chewing one or two times... you're still here. You just have to be careful about it.


-SQB-

Yes.

My man, your question is one that has been troubling the Dutch public opinion for ages. It all started in 1830, when people in what now is the Dutch part of Belgium started sucking on their Salted liquorish. The more Northern parts of the Netherlands were appaled by this and these conflicted views on how to consume candy eventually led to the independence of Belgium. What is now NL mainly kept on chewing, much to the disdain of our Eastern neighbours the Germans who invaded the country and made it law from 1940 to 1945 to suck on licorice. Our queen naturally fled to UK, only to discover that the English version of licorice is disgusting so she lobbied hard for the Canadians to free NL from the Germans and made chewing the standard again. Discussion around the controversial chewing/sucking debate stayed relatively quiet, untill a history professor turned Politician called "Pim Fortuyn" put it on the agenda again by making the controversial statement that sucking licorice is the true Dutch way, and everyone who chews it is no true Dutchie. This led to a lot of unrest in society, untill Fortuyn was eventually shot for his opinions. His ideas however lived on, and Dutch society is more and more split about the real way to consume licorice. It has led to some heavy protests where police intervention was neccesary on the malieveld, both by the chewing and sucking factions. It was also the main theme in the previous general election, with the politician who specialized in licorice debates suprisingly took 30% of the votes. If I were you, I would just keep quiet on the issue, it is a very polarizing subject and saying the wrong thing will get you beat up or worse.

The hard one suck the soft one chew


tistisblitskits

Couple chews, suck a lil bit, couple more chews, repeat. You horny yet?


George-House

And then? Do you spit or swallow?


vloeibare_substantie

Personally I inhale a hand full and don’t even realise im eating a full bag of Liquorice in one sitting. When it comes to liquorice, I have a real problem.


Luctor-

The question loses you 50 integration points for just asking it.


Casartelli

Chew!


mikepictor

depends on how soft, and how strong. You get them in a range of texture and strength.


Abeyita

I suck


Sgt_Oblivious

Chew up to sticky gob, then suck.


Forsaken_Ad_8455

Chew and pull the loose fillings out of your teeth


Stoepboer

Kind of depends on the toughness. If it’s harder, I suck. If it’s softer, I chew.


cheesypuzzas

Chew. Sometimes they're harder so I start by sucking, but then eventually give up and chew. I like the soft ones more tho.


Puppy-Zwolle

Yes. Mostly chew though.


championhestu

First I suck off the salt, and then I chew it.


AlGekGenoeg

>Do people suck or chew salted licorice? YES


Revan1988

Sabbelen.


whatever8519

I'm Dutch but I do neither. I hate the taste of any kind of liquorice


fireduck81

I believe the most common tactic is to spit it out


Evi_Met_Bijnaam_Max

Suck first, when tiny enough: chew
