Savory-vegetable-flavored jelly beans came up at work today. What would be good? Cauliflower? Yam?
A colleague who had just been on the Jelly Belly factory tour chimed in to say that they have the Harry Potter inspired flavors of dirt, boogers, barf and more. She sampled them all (ew) and said they were disturbingly true to their names (double ew).
Then she shared this interesting fact: the barf one wasn't very hard to come up with - they just tweaked their pepperoni flavor and were able to totally nail it.
Triple ew.

Yes, very ew!!!!
Friend just directed me to this story about how the British tried to entice children to eat more vegetables by making them taste like candy and other good things. Bubble gum-flavored broccoli is specifically mentioned as one thing they tried.
How interesting. I never heard of that....not sure I like it, glad it did not work!!
