Just As I Thought

Dextrose season

Oh, wow — my favorite event of the year is when the grocery store clears out the Valentine’s candy and starts stocking for Easter. That happened today, and I gleefully picked up 4 bags of my all-time favorite candy ever… SweeTarts Jelly Beans, the most incredible bean ever to be polished with carnauba wax.

I’ll have to stock up on these like I did last year… although the dozen bags I bought last year only lasted 6 months, so it’s time for a shopping spree. And perhaps stocking up on insulin might be a good idea, too.

  • Q. How do you eat them.

    Do you just grab a handfull and chew?
    One at a time?

    Just one of many, of my querks I would be required to separate them by color and only eat one color at a time. I can eat more than one but they all have to be the same color.

  • It’s weird — with any other candy, I am totally obsessive compulsive, always separating them into colors and eating them that way.
    But with these particular jelly beans, I eat 3 or 4 at a time, all colors jumbled together. They just taste better that way for some reason.
