My nan used to boil them and I loathed the smell and taste.
I had them for the first time last year since I was a kid and they were okay. I think they were sautéd in butter and some other stuff. Not as bad, but I still really dislike the smell and I could easily never eat them again xD
I used to dislike the taste of licorice. I used to eat the sweet bits from those licorice cubes my dad had when I was a kid and then throw away the licorice parts.
Don’t know when that changed, but I was on the way home with my old man (I may have been late teens/early 20’s?) and I was quite hungry. All he had in the car at the time was licorice and it was one of the most delicious things I ever had.
He sometimes playfully complains that he remembered a time when us kids never liked licorice or pepper and now we eat him out of a house.
I’ve done this with chicken flavoured instant noodles. They seem to taste better “raw”.
There’s also a kids snack that was (might still be) Mamee noodles when I was a kid. They’re supposed to be a snack that was designed, I believe, to be eaten raw with the flavouring to be shaken in. At least that’s what we used to do.

That shot looks like a cross between a lemur and a langur type monkey xD
