What's Really In A Barf Jelly Belly?

[@matthewsermons7247]

I'm surprised you didn't mention that to make the bad-flavored beans, they wait until night when the rest of the factory is shut down or risk contaminating the normal lineup of flavors.

Funny thing is how they say cherry is the most sold Jelly Bean. This is likely because its the cheapest overall one which they flood every market with and add to every package of mixed jelly beans. Its like saying Coke Cola sells the most coke. This is because every fast food place only stocks coke and really nothing else. Most people who drink soda will just opt for coke if that is their only choice.

[@SaraBlade]

Not wrong. If a place doesn't have Dr Pepper, coke or Pepsi is the choice for me

Maybe true, but the Jelly Belly very cherry is imo the best cherry flavored thing in existence. It's so much better than the cough-syrup cherry flavor in so many other candies.

The scrapped pepperoni pizza flavor becoming the barf flavor is interesting to me because Parmesan cheese and vomit actually both have a compound (butyric acid) that make them taste/smell the same. This strong smell only comes from Parmesan cheese if it’s mishandled tho

[@yogabagaba8289]

You’re joking, I just have a conversation that Parmesan smells like throw up to me and all my friends looked at me like I am crazy. It must be a gene, similar to how there’s people who can eat cilantro, and then people who think cilantro tastes like soap.

[@Yezpahr]

@@yogabagaba8289 Some people cannot taste fat flavor. I find it like water, absolutely tasteless, unless it has enough particles of meat / salt / smoked flavor in it. I sometimes see people eating the dried layer of fat on their gravy as if they can taste something, but it must be a compulsory action as it resembles the bodylanguage of a dog going for his own throwup.

I used to work for a major Jelly Belly retailer. We got six pound boxes of each flavor in our shipments to put in our dispensers. The Bean Boozled flavors STINK in large concentrations, and sometimes if the warehouse was too hot some of the boxes of beans would melt a little and become a bean brick that we employees had to manually pull apart with our (gloved) hands. Well, one time it happened with a box of the puke beans. My coworker helping me break up the brick said it looked and smelled like dissecting a placenta and I could never unsee or unsmell that.

I'm fine with all the flavors, save one. Buttered popcorn. it broke my brain.

[@lakrids-pibe]

The Danish candy manufacturer *BonBon A/S* got a new owner in 1988. They launched a new hard candy with a different and slightly unorthodox taste, which included, among other things, ammonium chloride, (a not uncommon ingredient in Danish licorice) which they gave an appropriate name: *Dog farts* - Hundeprutter The new "naughty" product was a hit with children, and soon they expanded the range with several fun variants: Rotten fish, sewage sludge, seagull droppings, earwax, pee diapers, etc. etc. In 2001 the company was sold to the danish candy giant *Toms* , who retired most of the variants except the most popular.

[@onerva.]

they were a staple of my childhood in Finland, I especially love the rotten herrings 🐟

[@Irreve-rsible]

From my recollection the company founded an amusement park with attractions based on some of the themes you stated, which is still existent and is called, "BonBon-Land." It's really interesting if you wish to research it further.

[@ChipboardDev]

tl;dw, so i googled it: Barf (formerly Vomit) is a BeanBoozled jelly bean that was introduced since BeanBoozled's debut. It is a medium-dark orange with red splotches to resemble harmless Peach jelly beans. The flavor was the result of a failed attempt at creating a cheese pizza flavor, where Jelly Belly accidentally used a smelly cheese.

I saw an episode of Modern Marvels where they went to Jelly Belly and a guy that worked there said the vomit flavored bean actually came from the original idea to try and make a pepperoni pizza flavored bean. It apparently tasted so bad that he almost got sick himself. So that gave them an idea to turn it into the vomit flavored bean by taking that original pizza flavor and adding citric acid to it.
