Hey! These are Actually Pretty Nice!

Walgreens Nice! Jelly Beans


When it comes to house-brand jelly beans, the vast majority of them appear to be made at a factory in Mexico and then shipped to companies that package them for a given vendor. We’ve already seen a “Made in Mexico” message on the regional brand Sathers as well as beans packaged for WalMart and beans distributed by a help-the-disadvantaged company in Minnesota. They’re definitely not “gourmet,” and more to the point, seemed to be all the same. I say “seemed” because I happened to see that “Mexico” business on our latest find, but they aren’t quite the same: they’re Walgreens Nice! Jelly Beans.
