It's slightly bitter on its own, but in candy this is covered up by the sugar. It's supposed to be very soothing for a sore throat. And what flavour is sassafras? Sassafras root was formerly used to make root beer. They stopped using it because it contains a chemical called safrole which is a known carcinogen. It has an earthy flavor with notes of anise and lemon and hints of eucalyptus and root beer. The leaves are ground up to make fil powder for gumbo, a thick Creole stew. --- Minutus cantorum, minutus balorum, Minutus carborata descendum pantorum. <cite>captpackrat posted [p:926615898] in Pick a har...
