As the last confectionary thread has just about run its course, I thought I'd kick off another one!

I'm usually reluctant to heap praise on anything American, but one thing the Yanks do really well is jelly beans.

Jelly bellies (manufactured by the Jelly Belly Candy Co of Fairfield, California) are now available in my local Sainsbury's (and maybe somewhere near you).

These are really something else! The blue ones (blueberry) and the pale green ones (pear) are my favourites, but they're all yummy. The only ones I'm not too keen on are the white ones (coconut) - but another user of this forum is happy to gobble those down!

And the top banana ones are in Sutton United colours! ;D

I've never tried the Jelly Bellies but it would take some beating to beat the Joosters.

When I used to have swimming lessons they had a jelly bean machine in the reception room, that both gave jelly beans and donated to a childrens hospice, two birds with one stone.
