Jelly Belly Snapple and Things (Scary)

// July 17th, 2012 // No Comments » // Candy Video Review, Gummy, Jelly Beans

I’m back with another edition of Candy Tuesday, with a special guest, my nephew Omari!

The Snapple Jelly Belly were really good with lots of flavor. If you head over to the Snapple website you’ll notice that they sell the Snapple Bottle Mix shaped like a bottle. Pretty neat and it reminds me of the review that I did with the Beans and Carrots by Jelly Belly.

Next, the Pet Cockroach was indeed hard to swallow lol! My nephew had no problems finishing it later

I have a freaky edition of Candy Tuesday today!! Enjoy

After the video, my family and I tried the Harry Potter Bertie Bott’s Beans by Jelly Belly and let me tell you… it was an experience!! I’ve never tasted any candy so bad and so good ever!

Here the list of flavors in the “cute” Harry Potter Bertie Bott’s Beans with my comments

• Banana – nice to wash the others down
• Black Pepper – clearly tasted like black pepper and of course as a candy GROSS
• Blueberry – nice like always
• Booger – although I’m not a Booger expert, my brother said it tasted like the real thing!! GROSS
• CandyFloss – nice flavor
• Cherry – nice like always
• Cinnamon – i don’t think my box contained cinnamon at least I didn’t taste it
• Dirt – YUCK! I spit it right out
• Earthworm – not a bad flavor
• Earwax – it was good to wash down other flavors
• Grass – wow… this tasted like the real thing
• Green Apple – refreshing to eat this after the others
• Marshmallow – not a very strong flavor
• Rotten Egg – OH MY GOD.. DON’T TRY UNLESS YOU ARE BOLD!!! I SPIT IT OUT BEFORE IT HIT MY TONGUE. SMELLS HORRIBLE
• Sausage – It tasted exactly as flavored — aiii
• Lemon – again nice flavor
• Soap – honestly it tasted like soap so after that disgusting Rotten Egg I washed my mouth right out
• Tutti-Fruitti – Very nice! one of my favorites
• Vomit – Seriously.. who even thought of this and test tasted the flavor.. I tasted verbatim exactly exactly like disgusting VOMIT.. I will never try again!!
• Watermelon – GOOOD

Those flavors are incredibly exactly like the name. That is a great Halloween gift to give the kids. They can be purchased from JellyBelly.com, Amazon, Wal-Mart and of course your local CVS or Walgreens etc.
