I found these at the checkout line at Best Buy.

They are from the Harry Potter movie and called
Bertie Botts' Every Flavor Beans. I dont know if you have seen the movies but these are really cool.

The cool thing is the flavors they come in.
These are right off the back of the box, I kid you not.
They ARE made by Jelly Belly.
I will tell you my experience with each flavor.

They come in Black Pepper,Booger, Earthworm, Dirt,
Ear Wax, Grass, Sardine, Soap, Spaghetti, Spinach, & Vomit flavors.

I thought the Black Pepper was great!!

The Dirt gets 2 thumbs up just for tatsting exactly like dirt.

The Grass' flavor was pretty weak but I could taste it.
(thats regular lawn grass for all you hippies)

The Spaghetti was my favorite. It even had a marinara taste in with it. They should add this to the big assortment box.

The Spinach was also a little weak but was ok.

The Soap one I spit out right away. Tasted like eating perfume. Or maybe dishwasher detergent.

I dont know why I even tasted the Vomit one, but I did and almost puked.

Did not try the Booger, earthworm, earwax or Sardine.
After the Vomit one I wasnt in my curious mood anymore.
The package also had 9 of Jelly Belly's regular flavors as well.

DONT ask why I even bought these.
DONT say I didnt warn you about the Vomit one.

DO feel bad for the guy that had to keep tasting them to see if they were on the money or not with the flavors.

Also I dont think my fiance will ever eat a jelly bean that I offer her, ever again.

While touring the Jelly Belly factory this summer my son had the spaghetti along with one of their newest flavors "roasted garlic" and buttered popcorn. The roated garlic and buttered popcorn combo tastes like garlic bread.
