Panel 1: "All right, boys... You may have five jelly beans." "Yay!" "Thanks!" Panel 2: "I want a lime one, but how do I know if this green one is lime? It might be sour apple, and I HATE sour apple!" " Smell it and see." Panel 4: "Can't tell. I'm puttin' it back." "No you're not."

I have also eaten watermelon jellies that were pink. Never touch the red ones, taste like cherry cough syrup to me. That ruined most candies for me. Speaking on ruin candy, anyone try the new skittles were the changed the lime to green apple. One word: Gak!!

Not as bad as not seeing that lime Skittles (my favorite) had been temporarily replaced with Sour Apple (I hate sour apple candy). Talk about a buzzkill.

They should have added green-red colours for watermelon

Black jelly beans should not even be a flavor, Chad.
jeffin101 over 11 years ago
I agree.

It’s the week of Easter, so of course there will be jokes about Easter candy. I’ll tell you what’s an abomination: Artificial coconut flavoring. The horror…THE HORROR!

So, Chad, go eat some REAL watermelon, and get over it…….it’s that kind of world: like MAD magazine used to say, “artificial flavor, artificial color, artificial candy”!!

I don’t think I’ve eaten a jelly bean for over three years.

Isn’t the inside of a watermelon red?

Wow, I’ve never seen Chad so hacked!

Chad is only partly right. Red jelly beans should be cinnamon!

Take it easy Chad!

He’s right. Watermelon candy or gum is like eating plastic. Of course, watermelon is #2 on my top ten list of Foods I will Not Eat No Matter What, so I hate it all.

Hey Ethan Brockman, this strip has a pretty good chance of survival, even if you do stop reading it.

As far as candy goes, I’m a chocoholic. It’s so bad right now i am wondering what chocolate covered jelly beans would taste like. Would they still taste the same if the color was hidden by the chocolate coating?

Easter is nearly here. Since Easter is(according to the kids) about the EB and candy, Peirce went with a candy favorite: jelly beans
