• Jelly belly factory

    I have no idea how I found out about this, but they give free tours in the original Jelly belly factory, and it was on the way up to Napa, so we decided to visit. It was unfortunately a Sunday, so nothing was actually running down in the factory,but it was still cool to see. They had big glass windows all around the factory and a walkway high up so we could see everything. While on tour everyone had to wear dorky hats. We learned about some of the funny/ridiculous flavours they invented, and also about how Ronald Reagan apparently really liked jelly bellies, and he had a dedicated container in his office. Oh, also that jelly belly art apparently is a thing. At the end of the tour they even gave us a free bag of jelly beans!Read more
