Title: To My Fellow Jelly Bean-ophiles Post by: Mr. DS on February 20, 2010, 09:53:58 PM I probably started this thread before but I figure I'd begin anew. I love jelly beans and this time of year sees me overdosing on the many varieties.
My absolute favorite is the Sweetart variety which is odd because I don't care for traditional Sweetarts. These babies are great though and I go through at least 10 bags this time a year. So far I've also sampled Sour Patch ones which are really good. My wife and I were at Target today and we picked up a bag of Starburst ones that had only Cherry, Watermelon and Strawberry flavors. My wife won't let me have any although I've been stealing a handful here and there. I also found Jolly Rancher variates good too. So what are your favs if any? Are there any you really don't like? I should point out I'm one of few who can't stand Jelly Bellys. They get too artsy fartsy with their flavors and I feel most of them kind of stink. :thumbdown: Title: Re: To My Fellow Jelly Bean-ophiles Post by: Paquita on February 20, 2010, 11:42:27 PM I used to hate jelly beans until I tried the Starburst jelly beans! I think they're the best. But what bugs me is why do they sell the red-bean only starburst jelly beans, but not the strawberry and cherry only regular starbursts?!
I'm not a huge fan of jelly bellys, but I do like the popcorn flavor. Actually I don't really know if I LIKE it as much as I just can't believe how much it actually tastes like popcorn and have to keep reminding myself by eating them over and over again.

Title: Re: To My Fellow Jelly Bean-ophiles Post by: Silverlady on February 21, 2010, 12:59:53 PM I like the tropical fruit variety. I also like smaller ones over larger ones ... I suppose this would mean something if I told this to a psychiatrist. :question: Title: Re: To My Fellow Jelly Bean-ophiles Post by: retrorussell on February 23, 2010, 03:23:29 PM My favorites are the cotton candy, bubble gum and buttered popcorn flavors.

Title: Re: To My Fellow Jelly Bean-ophiles Post by: Ed, Ego and Superego on February 25, 2010, 02:19:37 PM I like many Jelly belly flavors... The ones I don't are any red ones (I don't know why), black ones (does ANYONE eat them?), and the cocoanut.
Title: Re: To My Fellow Jelly Bean-ophiles Post by: Newt on February 25, 2010, 04:11:32 PM I eat the black ones. By preference. :tongueout: My next fave flavour is orange.
Title: Re: To My Fellow Jelly Bean-ophiles Post by: Mr. DS on February 25, 2010, 07:58:32 PM Tried Lemonhead ones today. Not exactly my fav, they are a bit too tangy. If you like the candy you'll probably dig the JB though.
