The Assaulting Lolly

Black Black is the blackest, most taste-bud assaulting lolly I have ever come across. Yeah you say - you’ve chewed Black Black gum - well I say that’s similar to the difference between…um two things that are different.

It claims on the packet - “Lotte’s superior ingredients plus unsurpassed know-how give this tablet it’s delicious refreshing and lasting flavor”. The reality is that it’s stuffed with mint and caramel flavours, as well as caffeine and nicotine. My favourite combinations.

Actually they have helped me on the path of non-smoking quite a bit. Eat one of these babies and you don’t want to put anything else in your mouth for quite some time.

Good for clearing out the sinuses too.

But beware - eat more than one of these at the same time and you’re in trouble. I also recommend being patient with them - resist the urge to chew too early. Please. For your own sake.

      • Those puppies would be FDA regulated here in the states.

        No sales to minors or pregnant woman!

        • I didn’t realise they had these type of LOLLIES.  They look scarey actually.  I have chewed the gum and I didn’t sleep for a week and it took about as long for the skin on the inside of my cheeks to grow back.  But then I am a wus.

          • They have nicotine!? I should’ve read the label, I’ve been eating those things before I do weddings. Now I’ll have to get patches to get off the mints…or maybe I’ll start chewing tobacco.

            • MJ,

              I was mentioning your post and someone said that Black Black does not actually contain nicotine.

              http://www.jlist.com/SEARCHES/japanese_snacks/

              “Note: this product contains niacinamide, a form of Vitamin B-3 that has many beneficial properties. In Japanese, this ingredient is called “nikochin san amido” which caused some questions about the possibility that nicotine was present in this product. We have verified that there is no nicotine in Black Black.”

              That’s for the gum, but I assume it is the same for the lollies. What’s a lolly anyhow? The picture didn’t look like a lollipop.
