Iggy here:

*grin*  It's nice to know that my addiction to the clove gum (which, sadly,
I can't get where I live now...) helped job someone else's memory...

I had a second particular reason to know that Blackjack was the licorice
gum...  The taste, or even the smell, of licorice makes me gag.  I used to
dread getting the flu right up until Nyquil came out with the cherry
flavor...
