Jelly Belly

We took our second trip to the Jelly Belly Factory while Grandma and Grandpa were here. This time we got to see the workers making the jelly beans. We learned that it takes 7-10 days to make 1 jelly bean! WOW! Of course they make millions at a time, but that's a long time. I've never been a huge fan of sugary candy, (I prefer chocolate) but Jelly Belly's are an exception for me, I love how flavorful they all are. After going through the tour and seeing what it takes to make one jelly bean, I will never eat them the same again. It sounds silly, but I have a new and greater appreciation for the process. I will savor each one individually, enjoying all of the flavor.
