Can you freeze jelly beans?

I know, I should have bought all of the bags that were there... (probably 4 bags) - I have to drive past there again today...

You only bought ONE bag? Silly you. You know you should have bought more. After all, you can freeze them. ( or can't you....did anyone ever decide that in all these 239 posts? BYC wants to know!)

Yes, we did come to the conclusion that you can freeze them for up to 12 months and they'll be just as tasty.

But, Oldguy, how did we determine that? No body has been able to keep them around for 12 months - they're generally eaten well before that.

I don't think anyone has even made it to the freezer yet to put any in! They'll NEVER last 12 months!

X2 if I had a years worth of jelly beans I would be 12X fatter! LOL

I'm just guessing here, but I'm betting it was a study with a gubmint grant. Sounds like something someone would use tax dollars for.

OldGuy, obviously this was a controlled study to determine the 12 months! No-one on this thread has that much control to verify the results!

 

[sourland]

Control - as in delayed gratification? Nope, not much of that in this group.

Wondered how much it cost the taxpayers for President Reagan's consumption of jelly bellies? I know he just LOVES them and shares them with his cabinet members and his staff! Wondered what was his favorite?

and I suddenly have this random wild image of the presidential official jelly bean tester/taster....
