Ah .... what would Easter be without jellybeans???  We eat them once a year.  I either buy Starkist jelly beans or Jelly Belly ... I have to be selective of flavors that I buy, like you, Mr. Bele feels slighted if there aren't any licorice jelly beans.   :laugh:

I prefer the lemon.  So the lemon and licorice get eaten first and then we suffer  *****rollingeyes***** through the rest.

I pick all the licorice ones out... The rest go down a handful at a time 😁

There you go ... you have a 'method' to eating jelly beans.  happy77
Live in  harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.

... Except the dog poo flavored one that looks like licorice... It's always a bet.

I know ... the 'grape' ones can fool you... and I agree that taste like crappola.

It's kinda like getting a box of chocolates...
I am after the caramel ones, always.
But somehow, every_stinking_time, my first pick is always the toothpaste flavored one. Then the orange Tang flavored one. Then the Lemon Pledge flavored one...

THEN I start finding some good ones...
You gots to pay your dues I guess...  :shrug: :laugh:

When no one is looking -- smell them -- I can usually detect the fruity ones and the coconut -- so that leaves caramel and nut or some decent filling.

The first financial advisor I worked for had a fetish for Jelly Belly jelly beans and kept a large jar in the lobby. He made sure it was always filled.  There were two others in the office besides me and it was our job to ensure that that jar never was empty.  He was another licorice jelly bean lover.
