Reason to Celebrate ~ Licorice

National Licorice Day!

It’s National Licorice Day, and by golly that’s A Reason to Celebrate! There’s just one question: Red Vines or Twizzlers? I know some would ask, “red or black licorice,” but I’m not even going to go there.

So, which is better?

Red Vines^® candy is the deliciously rewarding treat that has been making special moments even sweeter for generations. Always fat-free, the Red Vines^® brand delivers exceptional quality and flavor that sets us apart.
