We took a day to tour the famous Jelly Belly Factory. They start the tour telling you all about the history of the company. Then, they show you how they make that little tiny bean. It takes several days and a lot of sugar to get the end result. But it sure is worth it! At the end of the tour, they have a sample station where you can get any jelly bean you want. Flavors range from their infamous Buttered Popcorn to Baked Beans, (really good, actually!), roasted garlic, buttered toast, strawberry jam, etc.... Then you can visit their overpriced gift shop and purchase all the Jelly Belly jelly beans you want - for a price, of course! So, the tour was free, but I spent $23 in Jelly Beans... The kids loved it though.
