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:

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.

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:

My favorites are the cotton candy, bubble gum and buttered popcorn flavors.

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.

I eat the black ones. By preference. :tongueout:  My next fave flavour is orange.

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.
