Back when I was in school, on the walk home I'd stop by a local newsagent and buy what I'm certain were Karate Belt liquorice strips.

The only Google image I can find is this:

The image is cached from an old Pinterest post that doesn't load any more...

I have the need to buy these again and just can't find any brand or name for them to search against.

Anyone remember these? Anyone remember the name?

Thanks!
 
Strawberry laces are single stranded and available everywhere. These are strands joined together and had a very distinct taste vs current strawberry laces!
 
If you chewed a whole belt, you would be so overwhelmed with glue in your mouth.

I deffo remember the joined together ribbon cable ones
 
Hah yes! You would end up with bits of belt sticking to the top of your mouth wall, then spending a lifetime dislodging them with your tongue :D
 
i wish they would make Wham bars like they used to be in the early 80's, hard/brittle with very sour/fizzy bits in, now they are soft and chewy with less fizz :(
 
remember eating rainbow crystals and losing a lair of skin of my tounge , american cream soda kali ,and those ufo things that melted in mouth and full of sherbert
 
The strands on that are thicker and there are fewer strands, but that might just be the best alternative yet!

Although, is that 7 bucks for one ribbon?!?!
