If you need it only once

Thanks, that worked. For my information, what is the reasoning behind
that strange-looking idiom?

You can't end a line after \item, because a line hasn't started yet
(\item doesn't start "hmode"). So you need something that switch from
vertical mode to horizontal mode and starts a line.

There are other ways to do it, e.g. \leavevmode, but \mbox{} is quite
short.
