Is the difference subtle or substantial?
I love licorice snaps.
You could say I acquired a taste for them. Black licorice is my absolute favorite candy, so I’m always up for a new licorice adventure. The first time I ate Snaps, I thought I hated them. I thought they tasted like paint. But they had a tough toothiness that made them kind of irresistible. By the time I finished my first box, I was hooked. I don’t know what that paint thing was about. I love them.
A Troubling Tip
At CandyFavorites, a customer recently brought it to our attention that he noticed a difference in his Snaps. While the bag said “same great flavors, softer, chewy center,” the taste he loved was gone. Saying that the change was far from an improvement, he likened it to what happened with the new Coke.Watch movie online The Transporter Refueled (2015)
The New “New Coke”?
As a newly minted lover of Snaps, I was alarmed and tasted our latest shipment immediately. I felt like I could savor the old snaps, and these feel somehow less substantial and harder to hold onto. I’m able to go through a pile of them much more quickly than before. Which raises the point that I still enjoy them. I feel safer since the recall. But, as these things usually go, something seems to have been lost. I believe that luck does play a role in success, and striking just the right balance can make magic. That’s what I believe has happened with snaps. They’re still very good. They’re just not quite “The Original Licorice Snaps“.
I am gonna be honest, I haven’t bought another bag of snaps. I hate the new puffyness and the flavor. Why did the snap company have to change the old fashioned flavor. Why why why!,,,,,,,,,,
Please email thank you sherri
The candy coating on the outside is way too thick. I won’t buy them unless there is a change.
I wasn’t aware of what had happened to Snaps. We were planning to take a trip to where we used to buy them in bulk, but now we’ve scrubbed those plans until we are able to buy actual original formula Snaps (minus the lead)
Please bring back licorice snaps I have been told that there is an issue with the food coloring that was being given used just change the brand of food coloring buy it from an American company and bring back my beloved snaps thanks
So I tried the licorice Hollows…..I gotta sugar buzz so bad that my hair grew and teeth just about fell out. It was like putting a sugar cube in my nouth that had a little licorice flavor. Now I’m not the kind that wants to go back to black and white Philco tv, but when you have the time, you can bring back the old formula. These are pretty nasty.
