    I reach in and grab a handful. Then I sort them into like colors to eat, starting with my least fav and ending with my favs. Since I have a mint allergy, I have to be very careful with the mixed bags.

    Jelly beans are my second favorite sweet treat with marshmallow being first.

    When I get a bag of jelly beans,I eat all the orange ones first..they're my favorite. Then I eat my next favorite...red...and then purple followed by white, yellow and pink. By that time I feel sick and guilty! So I leave the green and black for DH. I don't want him to feel left out and besides, I don't like the green or black!

    Love the Jelly Bellies! I always eat the cappucino ones first, then the pinks. Yum! Black ones go to the kids!

    I tend to get old fashion jellybeans. They come in either a fruit mix or spice mix; I go for the spice mix. The white jellybeans in the spice mix are clove flavored and I really like those. My next favorite would be the black licorice ones. I normally grab a handful out of the bowl and sort them. I see how many sets of beans I can make with one of each color. I eat the beans that were extra, didn't make it into a set. Then I eat a set, eating the least favorite flavor to the most favorite, then I eat the next set...

    I think I like the clove flavored one because they remind me of Necco Wafers, the white in those is also clove flavored.

    Me too! I LOVE black jelly beans. Nobody bought me any this Easter. I'll have to rectify that. My Mom and husband usually get me some. I hadn't thought about that until just now. Umm, I might just have to go get some myself. LOL.

    Old fashioned jelly beans, orange first, followed by,green,red,yellw then pink, never eat the black ones. I have no idea why I eat them in this order always have. I have a similar eating order with the valentine conversation hearts. lol.As far as the jelly belly types, I have only had them a few times, very wierd but LOVED them, although I don't consider them jelly beans lol. I havn't had jelly beans for a couple of years now I want some BAD !

    It's good to know that I'm not the only one with JellyBean OCD!
