Mint-Flavored Jellybeans Rule.

I got some from the Easter Bunny. I proclaim them by far the best jellybean flavor.

Hm... I never, ever had mint-flavored ones. Is it very strong, or is it rather... mellowed? I mean, is it like mint syrup (the french/arabic kind, the one that makes you think, act, talk and live green freshness after but a glass of it mixed 1:10), or rather like, say, after eight (which I consider to be less invasive, at least if consumed in reasonable quantities, i.e. 2-3 wafers)

Mild-to-Medium Mintiness, but sugary like a good jellybean should be. Plus they're nicely speckled in color, not solid.

Kinda like a Certs breath mint, but chewy and not as minty but more sugary.

I had the last few mint jellybeans last night, but - NOW I cannot find any more minty jellybeans at any store! I need my fix! All the easter stock of mint jellybeans is gone.. GONE!

Mint-flavored Jelly-Bellies just aren't the same! GAH.

I thought you lived near Milwaukee.

We have a Jelly Belly Warehouse in Kenosha. They even give out free tours and samples. You could check there.
Wisconsin Warehouse Tour

Jelly Belly Center
10100 Jelly Belly Lane
Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin 53158

Sweet sensations and a world of delight await you at the Jelly Belly Center, a mouthwatering stop located off the I-94 Milwaukee/Chicago corridor,near the state line. The Center is designed so visitors can take a tour of our warehouse (really, it's fun!) and taste the magic of "the original gourmet jelly bean," Jelly Belly.

You'll start from Jelly Belly Junction, and hop on board the Jelly Belly Express train for a tour inside the large warehouse and distribution center. The 30-minute ride makes stops at a variety of Stations with large screen videos showing the company's century of candy making and how we make candy corn, jelly beans, taffy, gummies and more.

Fun sights make the center a destination for family fun. See a dancing chorus line of Jelly Belly characters and be surprised by "Candy Alley" with its six-foot giant jelly beans suspended from the ceiling. In the large retail store hungry fans can taste samples of the 100 candies we make, or shop for sweet gifts. Visitors can also stop for hot dogs and drinks at the snack bar.


Tour Hours
Warehouse tours operate Monday through Sunday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., except for New Year's Day, Easter, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day. We may also be closed the day before or after these holidays. Please call to verify dates and hours of operation before planning your visit.

Every day is a sweet one here at Jelly Belly…come experience the fun!

For further tour information call (866) TOUR-JBC (868-7522).

Yeah, hell I work in Racine!
But those Jelly-Bellies aren't quite the same - I tried them!

Perhaps the ones in the Kenowhere warehouse will be better than the ones from the candy outlet at Southridge.
