You should have told the tourney director and he couldve been disqualified? And did this get in the way of your game against him?

This is one of the funniest thing I heard.
Lesson for you: Never put anything on the table.
next time I bring a liquorice to any tournament I will probably hide it

yes he just took it. it was one minute before tournament start.
of course I was kind of surprised gaping of what he did. but it was a 2 hours game each. So I was able to put it behind me.
I won the game.
I guess telling the tournament director wouldn't do anything.
some of tournament director may be good but most tournament director are friends with everybody.
playing chess with somebody new to us makes him an anquaitances it seems he has been a friend for sometime especially when u are comfortable with him it differs when u consider him as a foe and a man to beat. maybe the man you face was comfortable with you or he likes very much liquorice or just taking the advantages for that move
Next time use liquer. That's always worth fighting for.

but liquorice is a serious thing!
Did you check what the FIDE rules say about this?
Maybe he was just trying to unnerve you by taking your licorice? Maybe he thought you would either be so upset or bewildered by that action that it would destroy your concentration.
If you ever play him again in the future, maybe you should place some homemade chocolate chip cookies on the table... with ex-lax chocolate chips.
I was playing a man in a tournament. before the game I purchased some liquorice I put the liquorice on my side of table. before I could open the package.
he took it and opened it and took some and said "good idea"
if he had asked I would of course given him some but just taken it?!...is kind of a dubious move.
