Europeans promote Licorice to help you to quit smoking, Is licorice Healthy? I say Yes!

One of the best ways to stop smoking is to use puur pure licorice root candy.  This is a candy made of Whole licorice roots that have been chopped and boiled and the liquid then made into a hard licorice candy.  I have many many customers who have quit smoking by substituting black liquorice.  The example at right is a super strong one with nothing else added, so no gaining weight!  It is perfect because it takes a long time to eat because (in my peersonal experience) you have to take it out several times becuse it is so strong.  Some people I know love these with European coffee Zoegas and Jacobs are two brands we carry.



Directions for making your own hard candy can be found on

In my NYC travels today we went to Fairway Market in Red Hook, Brooklyn.  I haven't been on a whole store troll in a long time, it's only really fun if its far from home and for me NYC is pretty far! While were there we sampled a delicious Spring Brook Farm Raw Cheese So I am a busy busy peep this week in a vacationy kind of way, I have to tell you I like it!



Tomorrow we are going to see HAIR on Broadway!  If you click on the link, you can join the HAIR eparty!
