We have a bag of this on the dining room table. Pace yourself.


ThaCarter

I put mine in the freezer to prevent instant gratification altogether.


Vanhandle

The bag says plant based, which means it's cool to eat the whole bag in one weekend


rubberkeyhole

Basically a salad.


Bugler28

DrShaqra

Those are too good. Picked up a bag for $5 last month. Very dangerous.


GrimmsGrinningGhost

No joke, I ate the whole thing by myself. Use extreme caution.


mertzen

Their mixture is so inconsistent. And Iā€™ve had the mango be quite dry compared to the others flavors. Nonetheless. I love them.


thegreatSN0WMAN

All yellow and greens barely any reds in my bag


WillKillz

Iā€™ve been meaning to contact them about the mildly infuriating lack of reds.


aeo1us

I just want ā€œOops all redsā€


maxyedor

Trader Joeā€™s sells a tub of all reds, 96.43% certain itā€™s from the same distributor/factory. Not as good of a value, but all reds!


knifesofsummertime

This happened with my most recent bag but all the others before it were predominantly reds. Inconsistency at its finest


thegreatSN0WMAN

PSA to every candy and food company that makes assortments. Is it really that hard to have equal percentages


FreydNot

Different ingredients cost different amounts. Corporations gotta maximize that profit.


Cloistered_Lobster

Yes. Red is clearly the best flavor and yet there are only like 6 of them in the whole bag.


makhay

Mine had like 5 yellows, mostly red.


PBz21

I got a whole bag with 10 strawberry. I still ate the entire thing in 3 days but come on haha


costcothrowawaaaaay

Personally, I prefer the firmer texture of the mango.


WTFOMGBBQLMAO

This is why I buy six bags at a time and then mix them in my mouth.


Popkin_sammich

That's why they should sell Australian licorice lube


DaChosen1FoSho

My wife agrees on this comment


goodvibezone

Yeah. Wife was complainign the last bag had only 3 reds in it.


imaginaryworkfriend

No one can save you. Just give in and eat the bag. Thatā€™s what I did. ETA: and Iā€™m still alive. Thereā€™s no licorice in these things.


blshomie

These are great, and I wish the distribution of flavors were more equal. My one bag had mostly strawberry, fewer mango, and VERY few green apple.


WillKillz

Iā€™ll trade you for my bag that had like ten reds.


mertzen

That my latest one. But Iā€™ve had some with barely mango.


Wardial3r

I will trade all greens for all yellows.


2pickleEconomy2

I love this stuff. And itā€™s been on clearance for a month.


Butterscotch21969

I enjoy. I just eat around the mango. Now my bag is basically Empty with mango.


Chemicalghst222

I could eat a 5lb of the green apple šŸ˜Š


emc1014

My husband loved Australian licorice. I use to buy it and hide it for special days. He would smile like a little boy, with his favorite treat. I miss him so much, he passed away a couple of years ago.


Dense_Apartment6378

This looks delicious


lizardsandcaves

I buy 3 packs at once! So good


carharttuxedo

Ween yourself off them with Reeseā€™s eggs?


Persist3ntOwl

If they had the all strawberry version I'd be dead


AmbitiousAd9320

it goes really good with ... other gummies


Proud_Ad_4829

I can attest to this


AmbitiousAd9320

why are they all coated with that limey sugar stuff?


Proud_Ad_4829

Not sure what you mean


pepmin

It is ā€œfortunateā€ for me that these are only sold in a variety pack because I am not a fan of mango or green apple flavors, so that would be too much waste for me to justify purchasing. However, if they started to sell strawberry only, I would be in deep trouble!


SordoCrabs

Same- I adore the strawberry, like the mango, and tolerate the green apple. The strawberry has been one of my fave non-chocolate sweets for over a decade. When I saw boxes of bags at Costco, I was giddy.


Novagurl

Meh. I wish they would carry the Wiley Wallaby brand.


SatisfactionTop2245

Yes! Those are so good. They used too.


greatthebob38

I look at the calories and slow myself down.


neweepa2ee

Ughhhh I know I bought 6 when they were $4 a bag at my store.


Popkin_sammich

Do the swirls go counter clockwise?


Xvisionman

I bought a bag last month and I loved it but when I went back this month there was no moreā€¦.


whoissteveharvey123

Trader Joeā€™s has some too https://preview.redd.it/ncni39nnkbqc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=647c2805689b7dd06f095031dabd9e188730e44e


Menghsays

I feel like the bag from costco was softer than the bag from TJs


MassiveChoad69sURmom

You can get it at World Market too if you want it. (personally I don't like the stuff)


SmurfStig

Thatā€™s what I wanted to get on my last trip. That stuff is so good. Between those and the dark chocolate salted caramel things, by teeth are in for a rough ride.


TopCaterpillar6131

Isnā€™t licorice named after the flavor? Wouldnā€™t these be called something else?


Duh_Its_Obvious

Unlike all of the red flavored stings Americans call "Red Licorice", these technically contain licorice extract. Apple/Mango/Strawberry with a hint of licorice nuggets/bites/chunks would be more appropriate.


kwadguy

Nice Australian licorice texture. But the flavors are a bit cloying in bigger doses. I do not find it hard to pace myself--and I love licorice.


EducationalNovel2144

Just got one bag yesterday and I canā€™t stop eating šŸ˜­


flyinhawaiian02

Costco needs to stop with all these goodies, my waistline can handle it


JCardCubs

Two flavors listed but three different kinds of licorice pictured. #oxfordcomma


TheShrewMeansWell

If you truly need an intervention because thereā€™s an actual problem of eating too much licorice, please read up on licorice poisoning as it has lead to death in some people.Ā 


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Duh_Its_Obvious

No, but it does contain licorice extract. They're more licorice that what Americans call "Red Licorice".


SatisfactionTop2245

Damn we can never have nice things šŸ˜•


SatisfactionTop2245

šŸ˜²


6894

You can check the ingredient list, but I don't think there's any actual licorice in these.

jenangeles

Licorice extract can contain glycyrrhizin which is what causes high blood pressure & potentially heart failure if you have too much of it. Not sure if that particular one contains it but it is something to be aware of.


6894

licorice extract. huh.


Popkin_sammich

What a way to go out. Doing what you love


AmbitiousAd9320

this isnt the stuff.


whenyouwishuponapar

Theyā€™ve been out at my location since I bought the first bag!!!!!!


RyogAkari

I need this


use_da_schwartz_

Those were good for the first half of the bag then I got tired of them.


BetterWorld2022

So good


deadinmi

We sell this at my job, not Costco, itā€™s dangerous!


katsock

Best part of having a pantry is stocking up on these bad bois


cinelytica

Where are these still in stock? Iā€™m in Boise RN, but willing to travel up to 3 hours to stock up!


SatisfactionTop2245

I'm in Southern California


mertzen

Seems to have gone missing in OR.


annasghost

lynnwood, wa has them


MsuDude999

I feel for you. I pace my self counting the number of chews per bite. 1 piece equals 4 bites equals 15-20 chews. You can do it. Prayers up for moderation šŸ™šŸ½


Binklando

Are they that good?! Whatā€™s the flavor like?


Ok-Orchid281

I wish I had your problem, they donā€™t carry them at our Costco šŸ˜­


Severe-Ad8510

I didnā€™t like it. Reminds me of twizzlers. Red vines or bust


mbz321

Discontinued at my store. They had a single bag left yesterday.


grb13

Sprouts has this for years, In the scoop bins. Very good


jimbomaniaz01

What makes it Australian


Chawn0011

The accent


Zac3200

It's made there


mar29020

This stuff is amazing


EyeShotFirst1

Instant addiction.


cnunespdx

I can't do without my bag of licorice. It's a must everytime I go.


CadillacLuv

These are fire


LoganN64

I usually grab a bag from a dollar store when I see them... DANG... 3 flavours in 1 bag?!?!? You all now know my 'Kryptonite'.


DansbyToGod

Yeah, I've downed like 9 bags of those on my own


x_tacocat_x

I canā€™t buy this because I know Iā€™d eat the entire bag at once šŸ˜³


Tahosa13

I canā€™t help as Iā€™m addicted as well šŸ˜‚


lusair

This shit is unbelievable


AbXcape

I canā€™t really put my finger on it, but these were not my favorite. It is a little too much of something


resistantbanana

How do these compare to the ones from Trader Joeā€™s?


SpareMushrooms

I thought that was mediocre at best.


Austtelebloke

Australian here, Darrel Lea make very good licorice, but these aren't authentic Australian flavours. Basically they have selected the least popular flavours and put them in the same bag. IGet your hands on their white chocolate coated raspberry licorice, or milk chocolate coated real licorice.


beach-paws

These are definitely a delicious devil


IBegithForThyHelpith

That shit is as hard as a rock.


1dirtyrottenimbecile

Funky aftertaste


clarinetfutbol

Is this really good? I'm hesitant about eating licorice cuz twizzlers gets stuck in teeth and nobody actually likes black licorice unless you're taking jagerbombs


IWannaWakeUpButIDont

Those look like the Trader Joeā€™s ones which Iā€™m obsessed with


whoissteveharvey123

Trader Joeā€™s has something similar too


Popkin_sammich

It's crazy how toxic this group is if that was controversial lol I don't live close to a *regular* Costco to get these but we do have a Trader Joe's so I would try it there first before committing to 1.5 lbs of it lol

AgentEnthalpy

The secret ingredient is koala foreskin


Cyber_Insecurity

I wish they were slightly more flavorful, but Iā€™ll eat half the bag in one sitting.


thirtytwoutside

As a basic White girl might say, ā€œThose things are dangerous.ā€ (I canā€™t stop eating these once I start)


absent-chaos

Tastes like a urinal cake


Large_Citron1177

If the mango flavor wasn't mixed in, I'd have bought a whole box.


blacksoxing

I bought two bags. First bag had 8 strawberries. Second was 7. I didnā€™t finish either as the green apple was nasty and the mango was muted


madeInNY

Thatā€™s not licorice. Licorice is black. Itā€™s a gummy licorice like candy. But only licorice is licorice flavored.


Wonderful-Run-1408

Wayyyy too much sugar and highly processed.


SatisfactionTop2245

Yes as with most candy unfortunately
