The Bean Boozled challenge features pairs of Jelly Belly jelly beans that look exactly alike but couldn't be more different. You've probably seen countless videos of this on YouTube. If not, click here to watch. Each of the ten colors has a good and a bad flavor, as follows. You can buy Bean Boozled online from Jelly Belly.
The game comes with a spinner that tells you which color to eat. Within a few seconds, you'll find out your fate. Did you get barf or peach? (Side note: you may want to consider having a glass of water and a bowl or trash that you can spit into. Let's just say some of these jelly beans are truly weird and wild, as the box states.) I decided to play this game with my boyfriend, and it resulted in many odd facial expressions, gagging and screaming on my part. We decided we would spin until we got each color once. For example, if we were to land on the berry blue/toothpaste twice in a row, we only ate it the first time so we could try something else. Below, in order, are the flavors I got.
1. Lime
2. Stinky Socks
3. Pear
4. Coconut
5. Moldy Cheese
6. Barf
7. Canned Dog Food
8. Skunk Spray
9. Rotten Egg
10. Berry Blue
Lucky for me, I did get some of the good flavors. But... I couldn't resist not knowing what the other terrible flavors tasted like, so I ended up eating more jelly beans in order to consume every wild flavor possible. Certain flavors were definitely worse than others, so I decided to rank them most terrible to least terrible. (One being the most terrible, ten being the least terrible.)
1. Canned Dog Food
I feel sorry for dogs if this is truly how their food tastes. I'm ranking this as the worst flavor because of how strong the taste was and how hard it was to get the taste out of my mouth. This one absolutely required the spit bowl.
2. Skunk Spray
I'd like to first describe the smell of this jellybean. Once you've bitten it, even just once, your breath smells like a garbage truck. The flavor was pretty intense, and this jelly bean was promptly spit into the bowl.
3. Barf
This one was pretty gross and slightly accurate. The flavor was intense, but it didn't stay in my mouth for too long after I spit it into the bowl.
4. Moldy Cheese
I think this one didn't phase me as much as I thought it would because it tasted like a real human food—just moldy. I did still spit it out, though.
5. Rotten Egg
Same reaction and result as Moldy Cheese.
6. Booger
This one was pretty gross, but it wasn't too horrible. It was slightly salty, but the flavor went away with water.
7. Stinky Socks
Maybe I got a dud, but this one didn't really make me think of stinky socks. It just tasted extremely weird and bad.
8. Lawn Clipping
I expected much worse. This really did taste like the smell of fresh cut grass, but it didn't linger in my mouth after like so many of the other flavors.
9. Baby Wipes
Certainly not good. But, it wasn't terrible. If you've ever smelled a baby wipe, this pretty much tastes like the smell.
10. Toothpaste
I mean, come on! I think this one is a weird flavor but definitely not a disgusting flavor! I imagine if someone had just eaten barf, this jelly bean could actually be helpful.
