Avoiding excess sugar so sadly no jelly beans of any color for me. But I did like all jelly beans, I think I tended to sort out the black and eat those separately because I didn't like going back and forth between licorice and regular. When I was a kid I think we chewed licorice root but the memory is so faint now I don't know if we actually ate the root or spit it out or maybe my memory is totally wrong.
