Something that would be absolutely vile to the average person. It doesn't have to be something fancy or elaborate.

i'm not ashamed and it's not a secret. But the average person think black licorice is vile. It's okay, they have the right to their wrong opinion

@SarahAndSamantha When I was a kid i had a friend whose uncle worked at the Switzers licorice factory in St. Louis and he would bring me bags of fresh black licorice.

@SarahAndSamantha Black licorice is flavored with anise oil. It is very beneficial to digestion and will help to speed up digestion when you’ve had a meal and feel like you are getting indigestion. Even licorice candy has enough anise oil in it to help with that. Some cultures love to use anise seeds in cookies and biscotti.

@cherokeepatti However, those of us with high blood pressure should avoid it at all costs.
