Why I made a test purchase:
Was looking for "Red Licorice", it being noted here that even the original product from the late 80s was not of licorice, but of fruit gums. We are talking about so-called from the. "Devil tails", which was unique in flavor. The German manufacturer, Hitschler, but this is already forever no longer ago. While there are "red lines" of Hitschler, but they are totally in taste for a ton. The offer at the supermarket red, green, and brown cords do not reach the taste of the "devil tails" of the 80s from the bakery around the corner.
Now, after an intensive search, and abysmal products like Red Vines or Twizzlers, I saw on my business trip to Denmark something. Is called "Stjerner / Jordbær" and "snöre". The first are bars, the second cords. Both have the 1: 1 taste of devil tails. And now the best, there is this Danish Spezialtät also in the largest auction house Germany. Just looking. The brand is called. Malaco. And too expensive, they are not.
Glad to be able to finite mean "devil tails" eat and taste again. The addictive and are the first choice. The alternative as these bars here, or even the strings in the supermarket are compared truly the last and inedible.
Maybe someone is - just like I was there - looking for cult sweets from the 80s and my report is helpful.
