RJ's Original Soft Eating Licorice Bag

RJ’s Original Soft Eating Licorice

The first true licorice review on Selective Elective is that of RJ’s Original Soft Eating Licorice (no, the Askinosie does not count)! Black licorice is a favorite of my family’s, so we had high expectations going in for this licorice. At first impression, it does not disappoint. Once the bag is open, you can smell…
