Black Jelly Beans
Love 'em or hate 'em?
A simple enough poll, but since it's one which could veer unexpectedly nasty I decided to go ahead and post it here in Debates just to be safe.

Those are the black liquorice-flavored ones, I think, yes.

O_o
With a few exceptions such as The Jelly Bean Factory, which do all sorts of flavours, I don't think we have black jelly beans in the UK. From what I can imagine I don't think I'm a fan, I only like fruity/juicy flavoured jelly beans. Licorice/Coconut/Chocolate etc. just don't taste right..

Surely you must have them. However, you guys have a much better default black than we do: usually your black(/purple) is the wonderful black currant flavor. Ours, on the other hand, tends to be black liquorice. But I'm sure you must have red and black liquorice flavors in the UK. After all, we got liquorice from you guys in the first place. (Yeah, a quick Wikipedia search revealed you've got at least one liquorice candy in circulation.)
You've also got gobs of orange-flavored chocolate candies and we don't. >_> Why do they sell 5 pound bags of black jelly beans here and not 5 pound bags of orange-flavored chocolate? Maybe because the cost to produce nasty sugar beads is way cheaper than the cost to produce citrus-infused milk chocolate , but still.

Weedle sa: "Ska vi ha sex klockan sex"
The candy for REAL MEN:
I once downed a whole bag of these and then proceeded to light myself on fire, bungee jump out of a helicopter into a pit full of bad dudes, punch out all the bad dudes, and then hurl a commercial-grade refrigerator into the pit just before it exploded, all while piloting the helicopter through hostile territory riddled with AA turrets and riled-up football fans. In FLAMES.

Not a fan of Red Hots or similar spicy candies, so I think I'll pass, but ... lol @ your fiery Chuck Norris description, and *nod nod*'s of understanding once I read the Wiki article about the candy.
