My nephew spent a week with us, and we did the whole fireworks thing. I lasted
until 11:30. Then my oldest handed me a Bernie Bott's vomit-flavored bean (I
swear, when I bought them, I thought it was a joke). Blargh. I ended up
ringing in the New Year with the porcelain Goddess.

Stupid me, I thought maybe it was the power of suggestion and tried a
soap-flavored one yesterday. Gak.

I just wanna know who tests the booger and ear wax flavored ones and says
Eureka! Perfect booger flavor! How would they know?

LOL! My daughter gave my husband the vomit-flavored one. He said it tasted
like tequila :)

Do NOT, I repeat, do NOT try the sardine-flavored one. Blech!

I think there are some things one is better off not knowing :)

LOL! No, Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans were featured in the Harry Potter
movies and someone actually went to the trouble to make jelly beans in
really gross flavors like vomit, grass, spinach, booger, dirt, sardine, soap
and spaghetti. They're flat nasty! :)

If you were a kid, I'd be worried, but not as an adult :)

snicker...hahahaha! Oh my, that's too cute..The flu...What an idiot. Hating to be ignorant of these matters. If you were a kid, I'd be worried, but not as an adult :)

This tells me I need to consult with the kids I haul to school. I thought I
had been kept abreast of pop culture. Clearly I aint.

Thanks for the clarification.

LOL, no problem. My daughter and I are Harry Potter fans and when I came
across the Bertie Botts at our local cheese shop, we just couldn't resist
buying them - But they are bloody awful! Thanks for the clarification.

Anytime :)
