All of Ford's V-8 models do less than the 18 mpg of the rear-drive EcoBoost model. Ford has been surprised at the sales of the V-6 EcoBoost engine in the F-150.

Much of the sweetness in liquorice comes from glycyrrhizin, which has a sweet taste, 30â50 times the sweetness of sugar. The sweetness is very different from sugar, being less instant, tart, and lasting longer. The isoflavene glabrene and the isoflavane glabridin, found in the roots of liquorice, are phytoestrogens.he word liquorice is derived (via the Old French licoresse) from the Greek Î³Î»ÏÎºÏÏÏÎ¹Î¶Î± (glukurrhiza), meaning sweet root, from Î³Î»ÏÎºÏÏ (glukus), sweet + á¿¥Î¯Î¶Î± (rhiza), root, the name provided by Dioscorides.
The liquorice plant is a herbaceous perennial legume native to southern Europe, India, and parts of Asia. It is not botanically related to anise, star anise, or fennel, which are sources of similar flavouring compounds.
