Ew. I'll save you mine at Easter then. My favorite is the black licorice, but my favorite of the *odd* flavours is the buttered popcorn one.
But what do I know:
Question: Whats the most popular flavour?
Answer: Very Cherry remained the most popular flavour of Jelly Belly jelly beans for two decades until 1998, when Buttered Popcorn moved into first place. In 2003 Very Cherry moved back into top position by a mere 8 million beans.

And they don't ship outside Ireland ðŸ˜
If not, it might be an interesting endeavor.
I've never had a Jelly Bean Factory jelly bean, but like Jelly Belly quite a bit.

I once went to a service station in the far north of England (may even have been over the border into scotland as I was travelling there to work) and I came accross a pick and mix of those beans.
They were pretty nice, but I would agree with all others that popcorn is probably the most vile culinary experience you are ever likely to have.
I quite liked the banana ones, although all the fruity flavours are very appealing.
