• The new SuperTarget opened in early October, and it’s awfully convenient.

  It also has a temptation to which I’ve never before succumbed, but this
  time I fell as if I’d tripped over a rock.   Jelly
  beans.  The store has a truly splendid jelly bean aisle, featuring
  most of Jelly Belly’s myriad flavors.  My favorite are:

            

  Sizzling Cinnamon and Tangerine.  I’ve tried others, but these are
  the staples.  I love ‘em, whether munched separately or together.

  However, there are definitely some flavors for which I just don’t
  understand the appeal.  Buttered toast?  Popcorn? 
  Cantaloupe?  Roasted garlic, for pity’s sake?  Toasted
  marshmallow?  Those are just strange.  I want buttered toast,
  I make some toast and butter it.  Want popcorn?  Ditto.

  There is a flavor I’d get a kick out of trying though, but the store doesn’t seem to have it:  jalapeno!
