Dear Rooster,

You can still get horehound drops at the dollar store! Also, I think it is Yosey who knows a website that specializes in old-time candy.

Yes sorta like it...I associate it with medicine since sore throat is when I got it as a child.

The craft store near us carry locally made hard candies. Among the many delicious flavors, Horehound is one of them. I prefer the cherry and root beer flavors myself, but Horehound is pretty good.

I LOVE Horehound candy. When I was in junior high school, the family of one of the students made Horehound and she sold it in the school.

No I don't. I've only come across the word "horehound" once before---probably also on a Q & A site.

That was the first time I heard about it; and I'm really not much of a candy aficionado, so I've never looked for it. to try it.
