Can you freeze jelly beans? - Page 27

There's a National Jellybean Preserve?  Do they grow wild there?

I can not help reading Old Guy's last post! 

I would like to think Reagan DID take his jelly beans with him to everlasting life. Like the mummies, he probably couldn't eat them but I am sure they will be food for the .........................!

I do remember the kid ramming the jelly bean up in his nose, so those doctors at the ER has those special jelly belly extractors!

No silly, that's the National Jellybean Reserve.... The Preserve is where they store tons of them in case of a shortage.

I've heard they have guided tours, where they let you in to the actual rooms where they store the jellybeans. They make you wear coveralls, though, and the coveralls have NO POCKETS.

Heck with the Reserve, sourland is headed to the Preserve.     

Thanks for the 'heads  up', MFB.

Where is the room for "samples" at the Reserve or Preserve?

Probably like the "samples" room at Fort Knox.

It has to be encased in a stainless steel vault about 1,000 ft below ground. Might just take a few bottles of wine down there too!

Ok,

Jellybeans are frozen...

Just looked at the 2nd post.  Freezing only adds two months to the shelf life of a jellybean???  They are good for 8-10 months on the shelf.

Well, that kinda answers one question anyway. You can't take 'em with you. Than again, perhaps jelly beans are incorruptible in the after-life.

Darn! Every time I think we have an answer the answer just creates another question.

(This thread reminds me of some of the great philosophical discussions we had when I was younger. Of course, back in-the-day said discussions were interspersed with off-topic comments such as; "Hey Bogart, pass it!" "Whoa that was harsh. We need to change the water." and "Man, have I got a serious case of the munchies! Pass the jelly beans, dude."
