Alas: earwax

In my raid on Kmart the other day, I brought home a bag of Harry Potter jelly beans: the jelly belly Bertie Bott's All Flavour Beans.

Votania, loving Jelly Bellys, snags one before work the other day.

Black pepper.

Some days, you just can't win.

They really MAKE the all-flavour beans now? Coolness! I'm impressed with Jelly Belly just for that. They've always had the audacity to have a few flavours I despised, buttered popcorn being the one that pops to mind (no, I love buttered popcorn; I hate the jelly bean flavour thereof), and I've been impressed by their variety. I'm even more impressed now...it's a marketing tactic that could either gain them MUCH or fall FLAT, depending on how much people were willing to deal with the odd BAD flavour in order to have the sheer interesting value.

It's mostly the regular flavors, plus a few odd ones like sardine, black pepper, grass, and boogers.

I don't know if they still make them or not. These were oldish.

My dad got some when they first came out, of course, because he's a Harry Potter fan now.

and I'm distinctly unthrilled with their buttered popcorn flavour as well; Narcissa and I would always trade buttered popcorn for licorice, as she liked the one and I liked the other.
