No, really!Panda have brought out blueberry flavoured liquorice. Seriously! And it's made with real blueberry purée. Now, I'm not really a fan of liquorice, but this stuff is quite different. Yes, it still has a liquorice flavour, but the blueberry stuff is a lot more subtle, does have a taste of blueberry and is really lovely and soft. They do smell quite a bit like jam and one or two pieces is quite nice. Any more and, well, I'm just not that keen. I'm not much of a one for sweets anyway, so I wasn't expecting to like them, but was willing to give them a go. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. I can see that some people will like them. I'm just a bit "meh" about them.
They're plugging this as a healthy, low-calorie snack, but I'm not so sure with the first ingredient being molasses syrup. That said, if you're after a sweet taste that's not too hideous or one of those "good for you" things that just taste vile, you're onto a reasonably good thing here. If you're me, there's no way you're going to scarf the whole pack ;o)
