Sen-Sen

Does anyone remember Sen-Sen licorice mints? I've been trying hard to find them, I haven't seen them on shelves for a couple of years.

Thanks 4Noggins, I guess that explains it. I should have been cellaring Sen-Sen! ::

I too like Sen-Sen, but haven't had any in a while. Last I bought was about 4 years ago at a kind of "good old days" store when I was visiting relatives out of state. My grandfather used to always carry a little box of Helps with him, a licorice type of small throat lozenge. I haven't seen them in at least 35 years. They were similar to Sen-Sen, but a little larger. I still love licorice candy, and usually have some around the house.

My dad's folks always had Sen-Sen around the house, and I used to like it as a kid. I haven't seen it anywhere for sixty years.

Both sides of that family (both grandparents) originated in Massachusetts, so I guess they brought the taste for Sen-Sen with them

to the Chicago area.

It was mainly used to hide the smell of liquor on the breath.

Interesting Foggy, maybe they stopped making them because I quit drinking, and wow did I drink!
