Overview
Not a hard candy and not gluten free, Red Vines Original Red is a soft, chewy licorice twist packed in a large jar. American Licorice Company, a family business founded in 1914, makes it with small batch methods.
A big jar suits anyone who hands out candy by the stick, from offices to Halloween and school events. The limitation is the allergen list, since wheat and gluten rule out some guests, and the quantity is more than a household snacker needs.
Who it's for
Back-to-school tables, Halloween bowls, break rooms and holiday gatherings that go through candy quickly. Gluten free households and light snackers should choose a smaller or different candy.
Pros and cons
- Large jar of about 150 pieces
- Soft, chewy texture
- Kosher certified and halal
- Low sodium listed
- Contains gluten and wheat
- Large quantity for light eaters
- Sugar and calories not listed
Performance notes
The chewy texture comes from the licorice formula, which stays soft in the jar until bitten. The listing gives a melting temperature, but no storage instructions.
