It was definitely every flavor! I bought this because 1) I am a big Harry Potter fan and I love Bertie Bott's, and 2) my husband did not believe me when I told him that every flavor meant "every flavor." He ate one jelly bean (soap), spat it out, and refused to eat anymore, saying he now believed me. I ended up giving some to my nephews - who are too young to know Harry Potter, but enjoyed the "gross" flavors regardless. Let me tell you, earwax is not pleasant! Definitely a blast from the past, and I will buy more for sure!
These things are amazing, we used to buy them all the time as kids. Unfortunately, they only sold them at bookstores, and those started going out of business when cell phones and e-readers started getting popular, so I was afraid that we would never see them again. I saw them again recently at Knotts Berry Farm and boy were they fun! I was so excited to see them on Amazon, and for considerably cheaper than at Knotts. I decided to buy these again and mix them with regular Jelly Belly's for my dad's 50th birthday party, they were a blast! My grandpa was the first one to get a bad one. When I asked what flavor, he said "I don't know, tastes like dirt with poop in it" I'm pretty sure he got earthworm which is THE WORST! Even worse than Vomit. The box is small, about 2"x1"x1/4" and holds approx. 20 jelly beans. You won't be getting one of each flavor, the assortment is random. I got one with about 5 vomits in it. Some have better variety than other's. They look almost exactly the same as regular Jelly Belly's, only without the logo printed on, nobody notices the logo when grabbing a few though.
I love that they tasted bad and the kids (boy 11,girl 9) were scared to try them. They kept daring one another to try the worst favors. It's like Dumbledore's experience in the book and you can completely understand why he stays away from them. The boxes are smaller than you would expect a box of regular jelly beans to be but you don't need or want a regular size of these jelly beans.
Some flavors are really bad but then thats the point. Get these in any 49 flavor batch and no-one would be happy. Get them in your Bertie Botts and laugh as you bond with charectors from your favorite books or movies gaining a whole new respect for what they mean by bogey flavored or ear wax. My one coviot is to be very careful with the vomit flavored one - it is dead on accurate and lible to make most people wretch.
My daughter, who just finished the Harry Potter series, was scheduled to have two teeth pulled. I purchased these to give her as a surprise when she came back from the dentist and it worked like a charm. She forgot all about her dental trauma and was obsessed with reading all the flavors, trying them out, and scheming about how to get me to eat a vomit-flavored bean (yeah, that's so not happening). It was so effective, it made me think there must actually be a little magic in each of these boxes. I doubt she'll eat most of the favors (earthworm, rotten egg, etc) but given that you're really buying an experience and considering the particulars of our circumstance, this was easily the best $6 I've spent in a long time.
As advertised, these are truly every flavored jelly beans. They were purchased as a novelty for a Harry Potter party, but turned out to be a complete crowd pleaser. They were as much fun for those tasting them as they were for those that sat back and watched the reactions If you want to add laughter to your party - give these a try for sure.
I had these years ago and recently got some for a Harry Potter Halloween party. the boxes looked nice and were a nice size. The tastiness of the candy is questionable, but it's supposed to be. It's not Bertie Botts if part of them aren't gross!
My kids wanted these after reading Harry Potter, which I found bizarre because of the flavors, but hey, they're kids. Though the package is small, believe me when I say you don't want a big pack of these with flavors like booger, dirt, earthworm, vomit and earwax. Though they're mixed in with normal yummy flavors, you don't know exactly what you're going to get, but this was all the fun for my sons, who would play a dare game with their friends using the jelly beans. They're disgusting, but the kids loved them. And that's all that matters in my books.
I love giving these to people, especially at work. They are the real deal and you get exactly what the box says so enjoy the ride. They aren’t meant to be pranks I don’t think but they sure are fun.

Ok I think these are gross, but they were great party favors for our Harry Potter Party and the kids love these wild flavors.
