Ok, if you've read the books, I know you're familiar with the concept of Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans. Did you know they now officialy exist? I found them at Borders, and couldn't resist getting a box to show my best friend, also an avid Harry fan. We nibbled them while on vacation at the beach...they really have the weird flavors! we split a black pepper one in half (really tastes like peppper), and it was pretty gross. I ate a grass flavored one, and felt nausous for about an hour. Poor Emily popped a vomit bean into her mouth thinking it was bubblegum, and got a nasty surprise. we spent the car ride to dinner downing grapes, gum, and after dinner mints in a desperate attempt to lose the disgusting aftertastes. after those two, we decided we'd had enough. they also have booger, dirt, ear wax, sardine, and spinach, but I have lost the desire to experiment any further.

Movin' on up!
Walgreen's had those, last Christmas. We, also, has chocolate Galleons, Knuts and Sickles. They all sold pretty quickly. A lot of our Jewish customers bought the coins, for Hanukkah gelt.

Wow are you adventurous! Thank you for letting us try them vicariously through you though. Didn't know they existed, but I'd have been tempted to try if I saw them - thanks for sparing me! LOL!
