The Jelly Bean Planet, Gourmet Jelly Beans Gift 42.5 Oz Jar - 36 Huge Natural Fruit Flavors, Seasonal, Birthday, Kosher Candy, Plant Based Colors - Gluten Free, Fun Bulk Sweets Assortment

I assumed from the pictures there these are big jelly beans but no they’re the size of jelly belly’s. They tastes great and I love the variation of flavors!!I don’t know what went wrong with that one ladies detailed review of one bad bean but these are great and I haven’t had a bad one yet. At its worst it’s burnt sugar, spit it out and move on to the next bean.I will be buying these again and I think these are on par or better than Jelly Belly.

These are similar to Jelly Belly in terms of flavor, though they definitely have a little firmer “chew” to them. The assortment is solid overall, but as with anything with this many flavors there will always be a few “hit and miss” based on personal likes. I will say the package was smaller than I expected, though I won’t fault them for that as my mind just assumed 42.5 once’s was bigger than it is.

a little pricey bit hubby loves tgem, says they ate a great product and great taste over all jelly beans he prefers this brand

I purchased this for a quick snack. The first day of a couple of fist full was ok. The flavor was sugary but acceptable.But, one of the jelly beans I picked up the next day was utterly disgusting. As I bit into it, it felt like a bean full of liquid rather than solid candy. By the time I realized that it was too late.The jelly bean released an exceptionally acidic and very bitter ”juice”. It numbed my tongue and I nearly threw up. It was nothing short of disgusting! I don’t know what was in it, but it felt rotten and corrosive and very very bitter.Washing my mouth with water didn’t help. I proceeded to brush my teeth, and the interaction between that liquid and toothpaste made it feel worse. I followed up with mouthwash and couldn’t get rid of the terrible taste. I did experience a strong burning sensation on top of the bitterness.A closer look at the container showed that these are not made in the US. God knows what actually goes into them, and what level of cleanliness and food safety measures are in place. Based on my experience, it must be anything but good.I threw away the container of this product, and couldn’t imagine how something like that could happen. Whatever was in the bean was very potent.The jar was +98%full when it went to the garbage bin. In hindsight, I should have looked for additional defective beans based on how they felt when very gently squeezed (felt like a rubber balloon with liquid inside), but at that moment of feeling sick, all I wanted was to get rid of them.I know I will avoid this brand. It completely ruined our evening, and I am sure it wasn’t the only bad one in the jug. For now and foreseeable future, I can’t even imagine eating any jelly beans. Yes, the experience was that bad.

As Advertised

These are just as good as Jelly Belly

Eh, they're ok, but nowhere near as good as Jelly Belly beans. The flavors are muted and most taste very similar and artificial.My Jelly Belly beans got lost in transit, so I thought I'd try these. I'll be going to Costco for the Jelly Belly beans after I polish off all 4 pounds of these, which might take a while.They're edible, just not very enjoyable.I had to at least try them once.

Love those jelly beans
