Yeah, I'm in the process of finishing the box I had in the kitchen. Time to get some more! Jelly Belly's warehouse facility is in Wisconsin on the way to Chicago, and they give tours too...not to mention free samples.
They may seem expensive to regular jelly beans, but they last a lot longer because you don't go eating a handful of them all at once.

And he STILL lived to 93....take that anti-tobacco nazis! He might not have lived so long if he had continued smoking. If he stopped smoking in 1967, he lived the last 37 years without smoking. My father quit smoking almost 20 years ago, and I really doubt he would be in good health at the age of 71 if he were still smoking.

What a great idea! I must say I like Jelly Belly's too much and my Jelly Belly belly shows it.

Count yourself lucky you can get them at Cosco.
Sam's Club switched to their own Member's Mark brand of Jelly Belly's. Barf. I don't buy anything but the original.

We tried the rest, Belly Belly's are the best. Even if I have to buy them from a leftie chain. All COSCO carries is the 20 flavor mix, you can't get the individual flavors.
I think you can mail order them direct. Or get them at a net candy store. You just can't beat the original.

To: wimpycat
No kidding. Jelly beans are sugar with a skin. Jelly Bellies are WONDERFUL. I am having a much harder time finding them since I moved to GA from CA.

Hear ye! Hear ye!
From this day forth, every February 6, Pres. Reagan's Birthday, will be celebrated by placing bowls of jelly beans in high traffic areas, in lobbies, at GOP events, and on coffee tables across America. Just a thought for the FR future... lest we forget. (Echoing Kipling's "Recessional.") But is that enough...?
Scots and their descendants around the world celebrate Robert Burns' birthday every January 25th in "Burns' Night Dinners," with certain traditions observed.
Perhaps we conservatives need an annual celebration of one of our greatest too: "Reagan Night Dinners" on February 6th. (We at least can skip the haggis.) At the very least there is plenty of superb material for recitation in his speeches. And what more splendid way to pass on his (and our) vision to future generations, lest they forget?

Ah yes. The Great Man had good taste as well.
I never cared for jelly beans until I tried Jelly Belly ones. Pear is my favourite flavour.

Thanks for posting this!
I like to give jellybellys (and sometimes those gumball dispensers made especially for them), but I rarely buy them for myself. Tomorrow I'm going to the local gift shop that has bins of jellybellys to choose from and buy and eat some in his honor.

My wife takes the kids (and their friends) to the Fairfield factory once every couple of years. They come home with tons of the "misfits" at bargain prices. Root beer is my favorite.
