Ugh, how depressing. Juicy Pear Jelly Bellies are a favorite once in a blue moon treat. Now I won't be able to buy them without contributing to a shitty cause.

And how the fuck is having boys and girls share a bathroom bullying? There are plenty of places where there are unisex bathrooms, and I'm sure that there are plenty of kids with opposite-sex siblings who share bathrooms within their own homes. It's like these people live on a completely different planet or something.

To be honest, that CEO would have to threaten my family for me to give up my Juicy Pear jelly belly.

Good job at prioritizing bean shaped candies over people's humanity.

son of a bitch. my "do not buy" list is getting longer and longer.

Yeah. I need to find a list of everything I can't buy. It's gotta be at least 20+

Mine is going to get to the point where it will be shorter to say "I can buy this". :(

Is there a website that collects this stuff? That would be insanely useful.

I don't go to Darden restaurants (except olive garden when I crack), chickfila, hobby lobby, walmart, curves, forever 21, urban outfitters, or papa johns. I no longer buy barilla pasta or jelly belly jelly beans.

I'm gonna miss those butter-flavored popcorn ones.

Finding another gourmet jelly bean is just a google search away, not like it's some hardship. Much easier than the options transgender kids have.

Jelly Bellies are too fucking over-priced anyway. No great loss.

thesilverymoon October 30 2013, 09:47:15 UTC

Agreed. I don't like them well enough to spend that much money on them anyway.

alryssa October 30 2013, 17:47:35 UTC

Check out Gimbals instead, they're really good.

checkerdandy October 31 2013, 00:30:17 UTC

Thanks! Those prices are amazing! And those cinnamon lovers candies look super tasty.
