The Painman Pranks Chaz and Dave with Black Licorice Jelly Beans

So, our local candy lady has a wide assortment of goodies, but my favorite is the jar of jelly beans. The downside to sneaking into her office for a midday snack is that I always get a handful of the nasty-tasting black licorice jelly beans. So, to have a little fun at the expense of my co-workers and to cut down on the black licorice population, I played a little prank on Chaz and Dave.

Like the cola taste tests, I had them close their eyes and eat a handful of jelly beans to try and figure out the different flavors. I told them it was a test of their palette, but actually it was just a handful of black licorice jelly beans.

The prank had mixed results, and it rid the jelly bean jar of about 20 black licorice jelly beans.
