The classic Good & Plenty is the nation’s oldest brand, first made in 1893. Licorice root first arrived in North America in the 1600s. It was enjoyed as a spice, tea, used medicinally, and used for dental hygiene as an early toothbrush. Licorice flavors took off in the late 1800s and early 1900s – allsorts, laces, Black Jack gum, bridge mix, and more! No wonder the Good N’ Plenty has stood the test of time: it’s the perfect confection for any licorice lover. Comes in a 4 oz heat-sealed bag with the history on the label.
