Deejaycee,
It can be purchased in stores during the Holiday season without the alcohol. The non-alcohol version is what the children get. The alcohol is added for the adults.
Some families have wassail during the Holidays, also.

I would hardy consider it a delicacy. It is good though. I enjoy the stuff. No one else in my family cares for it, so I guess there is just more for me :)

You have to have a taste for it. The people who don't think its gross, its just not something that you can base your descion on someone elses taste.
