JB have been the one candy that I've always loved. Started spending my allowance on them when I was about 7...$1.75 got a pound at the local candy store. Pink grapefruit is my favorite, though I like almost all of them. I'm just amazed at the things you can buy at that store! And the 'deluxe' bean of the month club--holy cow! Pricy!


OG,

Of all the flavors, I like the pink grapefruit best also. Next fav is honey dew or whatever the melon flavor is. Then bannanner.

Nursie,

What are the rest of the Harry Potter flavors?? As I recall, there's some other nasty ones :p I'd like to know how they perfected the ear wax flavor, LOL!! We really need that barf smilie.

Theres a barf and dirt one.

I googled it............


EARWAX, DIRT, SPINACH, GRASS, BOOGER, SARDINE, BLACK PEPPER, EARTHWORM, SOAP, and SPAGHETTI.

GACK!!! My kids had them, I remembered the booger and earwax but not the rest of them. I like sardines :D I don't remember trying the rest of them.
 
Tried most of the Potter beans--some are okay (pepper, with the margarita flavor beans is tasty), while others are just nasty! I have to say though, the roasted garlic--not part of the Potter series--is my least favorite. I love garlic, but just don't like it in a sweet candy.

Cantaluope! Yep, one of the better ones. I also like the green apple and juicy pear!

Wow, talk about inflation. From $1.75/lb to over $9/lb. !! And people beyotch about the price of gasoline!?! :confused:
Just what in the world warrants nearly $9.50/lb for candy? :eek: Sorry BSG, I'm pretty fond of you, but I'll pass on chipping in for this one.

Yeah, I'm whiney about the huge price jump as well. :( I don't think other candies have jumped in price nearly as much.

Sigh. Guess I'll just have to suffer, beanless and sad.
 
Would you perhaps settle for some pinto beans? Ok, maybe they're not quite as colorful as jelly bellys, but:

  1. they're a LOT less expensive,
  2. you can add spices to create your own flavors,
  3. they're much more nutritious,
  4. if you eat enough, you can have loads of fun farting the rest of the day! :D
