BeanBoozled Jelly Belly Game

[GopherM]

Who in their right mind verifies the accurate flavor of these beans? And if you were an expert of tastes like "Booger" would you actually put that on your resume?

Has anyone here played this game (or tricked their children into playing)? If you have tricked your children into playing is that felony child abuse?

Stinky Socks - Tutti-Fruitti
Lawn Clippings - Lime
Rotten Egg - Buttered Popcorn
Toothpaste - Berry Blue
Barf - Peach
Canned Dog Food - Chocolate Pudding
Booger - Juicy Pear
Moldy Cheese - Caramel Corn
Baby Wipes - Coconut
Skunk Spray - Licorice

I have this and I brought it into work. A few people have been a target.

Before I knew what it was, my daughter, sister and brother got me with the "vomit" flavor. It was spot on and I had a lingering taste in my mouth for hours. It was horrible.

Someone I know got this in a white elephant gift exchange at a party this year. They started playing it at the party and my boyfriend's kids got involved. The little one was obsessed with it! Most little boys love gross stuff. I think he mostly just liked eating them and watching everyone's reactions So for Christmas I found the pop-up container version where you tap the top and a random one comes out. Got him a couple refill packs too. It was hands-down one of his favorite gifts

My guy ate a skunk one Even though I made him brush 2x and gargle a ####tona mouthwash, he claims he still tasted it the next morning.

Don't know what I would do if someone tricked me with any of the gross ones. I really don't like jelly beans that much to start with so I guess it is an easy thing to avoid. Plus I AM NOT going to dip into a public dish to take anything to eat. People that eat those peanuts out of dishes at bars or the mints at restaurants are just asking for trouble.

It's more of a game, like Russian roulette but with jelly beans. No one's being tricked. Anyone playing knows full well they have a 50-50 chance of picking the normal one or the awful one. One version of the game comes with a spinner and it'll land on a color. you have to grab that color and if it's yellow it can either be buttered popcorn or rotten egg, for example. You can't tell which it is until you eat it!And the other version of the game, all the jellybeans are mixed in an enclosed container with this pop-up top you tap and only dispenses one jellybean, which you then have to eat. Again, it's a 50-50 that it's the normal flavor or the gross one.

It's a fun kids game, however I decline every time he offers to play with me

Yup - got several for my kids a few years ago. They LOVED it - old, young, boys and girls. The youngest was in middle school and took them to school w/ him. More than one adult and several kids were BEANboozled. He was happy. We still tell stories about it at family gatherings. FUN! (mind you, I never played...*shiver*)
