Dirt flavored jelly beans?

Was talking with my friend David in Boston yesterday about his visit to the Jelly Belly factory in California a week-or-so ago.

While he was there, he got to sample the Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans.

What I didn't know is that these are the preferred flavors of Harry Potter... a 10-flavor selection that includes pickle, black pepper, booger, dirt, earthworm, earwax, sausage, rotten egg, soap and vomit.

Yuck.

David said he tried the "dirt" and the "grass". When I asked him what the dirt jelly belly tasted like, he said, "Dirt."

Wow.
What will they think of next.

PS to my Dad:
Don't worry... as much as you love Jelly Bellies... this ISN'T what I'm sending you for your birthday! **wink** HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DAD! **mwah**
