So today I decided that I really wanted to go to the Jelly Belly factory since we live soooo close to it. I dragged my Shannon along with me because I didn't want to go alone. She wasn't expecting much and she wasn't too excited when we got there either. After the tour though, she did say that she had fun! (Yes, that is her not impressed face in that picture.) We got to learn a little about Jelly Belly history! Did you know that they started their business in Portland, Oregon? But because of the humidity and amount of moisture that Oregon gets, it wasn't a very good place to make candy. So they moved their operation down to California. I can totally relate! There is way too much rain up there for my tastes! We also got to see the making processes for the jelly beans and how they got packaged! We also got to see some really cool Jelly Belly art! I definitely want to go back sometime soon! There were so many goodies that we didn't even get to try while we were there. Like Jelly Belly soda, and Jelly Belly chocolates, there was even Jelly Belly ICE CREAM! Yes. Ice cream. It looked SO delicious. They even had a cafe on site and the food smelled really good. I had so much fun. We will for sure go back soon!
