Jelly Belly Sport Beans - Energizing Jelly Beans - Assorted Flavors, Pack of 24

I have used Sport Beans before in marathons. I am now triaining for an IronMan in the Arizona heat. I take protein and amino acids before and after every workout. I needed something to replenish me during long workouts in the AZ heat. The Sport Beans work great for me! I eat a bag every 45 minutes to one hour, wash it down with a little water/gatorade mix and I do not feel the energy loss I would feel in long workouts without the beans. I use them for long swim, bike and run workouts.I like that the packaging is only as big as it needs to be. I have tried other products where the packaging is so much larger than needed for what is in the package resulting in issues carrying on me during a workout. I can put three or four bags in my jersey pocket and I do not even know they are there during the workout. I also like that the packaging is resealable. If I am nearing the end of my workout and need a little more I can take a partial bag and know the packaging is sealed properly and I will not lose/waste what I did not take out of the bag. I also like the quality of the packaging. I can throw bags of sport beans in my gym bag, CRAM the gym bag into my motorcycle bag and I do not have to worry about the packaging tearing resulting in the product being alll over my gym bag. The quality packaging also allows me to put the beans on the side of the pool during an indoor swim workout and not worry about tasting chlorine when it is time to take some beans.I have tried other products and personally feel these are just the right consistency for me. Some of the paste products I feel are stuck in my teeth on my tongue and create an issue where I am using more water than needed to clean the product out of my mouth.And the fact that they taste good with all the other positives is why I gave Sport Beans 5 stars!Note: Althought, this is not part of my product review I would like to mention that I have tried the Extreme Sport Beans with caffeine. For me they do not work as well as the standard Sport Beans. The extra caffeine results in high/low spikes in my energy level as opposed to the standard Sport Beans where I feel I have more of a regulated high energy level. I also seem to have a bit of an energy crash after my workouts where I used the Extereme Sport Beans.

We cycle a lot, frequently going out on long rides of 30 or 40 miles. Having an energizing snack that is easily carried and tasty is a real plus. Sport Beans fit the bill. These are energy food wrapped up in a jelly bean format. They provide quick energy to get you going again, particularly on a long ride. We have also tried them while hiking and while they are good, they do not have the same impact in terms of energy as you find with cycling.The product is well designed and packaged into small single serving packets with zip lock like tops. You can have a few beans, then reseal them and save them for later. This is a great idea.The beans come in multiple flavors that are good except for the apple greenish ones that taste a bit like medicine. The flavors are not like traditional jelly beans in terms of being really sweat and easy to devour. These are thicker shelled and thicker tasting. It’s not candy.Highly recommended that you take a brief stop to consume the beans. It’s possible to eat them while you ride, but the package is a little hard to open with one hand and you need to drink a lot of water after eating them. If you do not have a good drink, then we have found that you get some stomach upset.Overall highly recommended. They are pricey but used sparingly provide a real energy boost.

These electrolyte jelly beans taste delicious and work great. They give you energy too. So glad my friend told me about them. We are an active family, and these are just what we need. I recommend this product.

Prefer these over the goopy energy pouches (it's a consistency thing) and have been using them for years. Easy to store in a hip pouch, open and consume on the run (literally), the taste is great, and they're effective.

A little tart, but not bad- I use this for biking. Packaging is good for transporting (stuffing into pocket, bike bag) without worry of tearing.They work. After riding 10-15 miles I use these so I don’t bonk on the ride back.

I learned about these back when I was running half marathons. I couldn't do the GU things because of consistency so the running store told me about these. I have now been using them for years! I stopped running but play lots of tennis. These have helped for those really intense tennis games as well. I have told several other tennis ladies about them as well. I highly recommend these for that extra boost during exercise. Best part is they are like candy and I chew them and they taste great! I also love that these (the black bag) doesn't have caffeine in it. The small packaging makes it easy to keep these in my tennis bag for when I need them.

I enjoy eating these sport beans when I run. They taste great and give you a little burst of energy.

There is a decent amount in each pack. Great taste, easy to munch on as I run.
