Happy National Jelly Bean Day, everyone!

Jelly beans have long been one of America’s favorite candies. With so many fruitful flavors to choose from, every handful promises a unique, mouth-watering experience. But what happens when that handful becomes unpredictable? What happens when that handful can potentially consist of flavors like “vomit” or “boogers”?
Over the years, Jelly Belly – a popular candy company and the world’s most popular producer of jelly beans – has started incorporating some very disgusting flavors. From their Harry Potter Bernie Botts flavors to their BeanBoozled line of jelly beans, there’s definitely a risk that any handful of Jelly Bellys you take could end up making your stomach turn.

Here are the most disgusting flavors of Jelly Belly Jelly Beans, broken down into two categories: Harry Potter Bernie Botts flavors and BeanBoozled flavors:

10 Worst Harry Potter Jelly Belly Flavors:

1. Booger, 2. Dirt, 3. Earthworm, 4. Earwax, 5. Rotten Egg, 6. Sausage, 7. Soap, 8. Vomit, 9. Black Pepper, 10. Grass

10 Worst BeanBoozled Jelly Belly Flavors:

* For those of you who are unaware, BeanBoozled Jelly Bellys are sets of two jelly beans that look the exact same but have completely different tastes. For example, the peach Jelly Belly looks the exact same as the barf Jelly Belly – so there’s no way of knowing which one you’re about to eat).
