    I never used to like it. Then I got COVID. My taste and smell died and were resurrected one Easter morning, but all weird-like. Now I love black liquorice. Tastes like eating a tire but in a good way.

          is your taste and smell different in any other way? or is it just black liquorice that transformed from disgusting to beloved?

          has the flavour of liquorice changed for you? or is the flavour the same but you now enjoy it?

          how many tires have you eaten and what does it mean that something tastes like a tire in a good way???

        Right, like I can’t explain the flavours I am accustomed to. And I can’t even explain the new one (neither before nor after). But like… good hell/bad hell? I’m going with good hell.

          Yeah there’s definitely an element to the flavor that seems like something artificial that you aren’t supposed to eat… like you plucked a piece of rubber off of something and put it in your mouth lmao
