Haribobats;)

Returning from the Annual Euroanaesthesia Meeting, my parents, following a tradition, brought me "some special sweets, difficult to find in Ukraine". This time it was a really big pack of Haribo gummies. Haribo gummies are usually bears. But my parents found something especially for me - liquorice bats! They definitely knew what to choose)


The pack


And the takes of diversely coloured bats





I also discovered this time that liquorice, a usual product in English-speaking countries, always translated as "лакрица" is nothing but Radix Glycyrrhizae, widely known and consumed chez nous as солодковый корень. Why should it be so?
