I love that the jelly bean on the tractor is harvesting other jelly beans on the farm!  Would that be like a person growing and harvesting other people??  lol

The Jelly Belly Candy Company, or simply Jelly Belly, is a maker of jelly beans and other candy, formerly known as The Herman Goelitz Candy Company. The company is based in Fairfield, California and produces more than 34 million pounds (15,000 tonnes) of candy annually.

Belly Flops
In the process of making Jelly Belly beans some of the beans stick together, are too large or too small, making them not meet the standards of quality. These imperfect beans, rather than being scrapped, are repackaged as Belly Flops. Belly Flops are sold in five ounce, one pound, or two pound packages at the Jelly Belly factory, other select stores.
