Krispy Kreme Flavored Jelly Beans Are Probably Not For The Health Conscious
If you’ve ever dumped an entire pack of jelly beans down your food-hole and were worried it might still be tiny bit healthy, than don’t worry, Jelly Belly has teamed up with Krispy Kreme to bring an assortment of 5 flavors which taste like different donuts, each one guaranteed to make your doctor to cry out in agony.
The flavors include Original Glazed, Cinnamon Apple Filled, Strawberry Iced, Glazed Blueberry Cake and Chocolate Iced with Sprinkles. Here’s a joke: Why don’t they make jelly beans that taste like healthy foods? Because eating healthy foods is miserable. Sorry, that’s more of a fact.
Anyway, you can buy a box for $7, which sounds like a good deal, but be aware that each Krispy Kreme flavored jelly bean that you eat removes 45 min off of your life expectancy. So each bag is actually costing around 3 days, still not as bad as Oreo Churros though.

Beer Flavored Jelly Beans: Jelly Belly, Meet Beer Belly
Can’t get enough of the taste of beer? Well, forget swigging down pints and pints of liquid. Now you can get the taste you crave from jelly beans. That’s right, jelly beans. Just in time for the Super Bowl, Jelly Belly has announced that it’s adding a hefeweizen inspired Draft Beer flavored jelly bean to its lineup.
Jelly Belly says that “beer has been a highly-requested flavor for decades” – of course it is. The final beer flavor took about three years to perfect, but now they have it. The Draft Beer flavor jelly bean has a golden color with an iridescent finish. Sadly, it won’t foam slightly when you bite it. C’mon, this is jelly bean technology, not a miracle.
They describe the flavor as “clean with notes of wheat and a touch of sweetness” with a “mildly bready” aroma. And no, there is no alcohol in the new jelly beans. All the taste, none of the awkward drunken pranks that you are used to.
