No one will be very shocked to hear that jelly beans are in all the stores now. In fact, they have been since early this month.
It was funny to see someone putting jelly beans on the shelves and the items are there for St. Patrick's Day at there at the same time.
We don't buy jelly beans, but heard someone joking about those particular jelly beans being from Mexico, not the USA, because that is the only place where jelly bean trees grow now.

Guessing they are for Easter, just that the vendors are in a hurry to get these on the shelves.

@PatZAnthony I am almost glad that they had plenty of leftovers for Christmas. People are tired to see the holidays items on the shelves too early.

Depending on the brand, there are good and bad. Some anymore just do not have much flavor and always way too sweet. My husband and I prefer Jelly Belly that you can get all yr round instead.

Many would prefer the Jelly Belly candy they can get in Dollar Tree.

@Lupita234 Well, our favorite is Jelly Belly. Brach is good. Sometimes just too sweet. Unless it is the spiced ones.

Everything is sweetened too much and all the artificial colors do no human any good.

We like the more expensive ones made by Russell Stover when we can find those. The other ones just don't seem to be worth chewing!

The stores here are just too quick to put things out, but we know they don't have room to keep stock in the back!

@PatZAnthony No they don't, and they want to get it in people's faces as soon as possible as well and get them thinking about the next season. As soon as Easter is over it will be he 4th of July.

@BelleStarr The tour we took was for Russell Stover. They do not make Jelly Belly brand, but their own brand. We think it might just be an outlet now, although they imply they make things at that location. Will have to call them! They would be just a few miles south of where you stay in Florida. (Wildwood)

The Jelly Bellys we get are made in Florida. Or, so we were told at the factory we visited. Think they would misinform us?

I rarely ever eat candy and would have thought that jelly beans were always on the shelves. Who knew there was a season?

Jelly beans are probably always available. However, these are in the Easter display, along with the chocolate bunnies, etc.

@PatZAnthony Easter comes to the shops very early in some areas. Still, we wouldn't want to run out of chocolate would we?

Yes, these are on display for Easter. However, we do know some jelly beans are available in the Dollar Tree all year long.

These jelly beans that you are talking about are they from natural fruit juices or just artificially flavoured?

Jelly beans in some flavors are more popular than others here. Always a holiday being forced on us, ready or no!
