Bean Boozled jelly beans come in a box which has multiple flavors of Jelly Beans. Some taste good while some taste bad. It’s meant to be eaten as sort of a fun challenge.
The concept of Bean Boozled Jelly Beans is that you don’t know what flavor you will get. Now that we know what it is, we investigated whether it is halal or not.
After contacting Jelly Belly (the owner of Bean Boozled) and doing our own research, we found that there is no alcohol and no gelatin used to make Bean Boozled Jelly Beans. This also include their other Jelly Belly flavors. We have no evidence to suggest that Bean Boozled Jelly Beans are not halal (haram).
