Jelly Bean Magnate Introduces...Gold-Plated Jelly Beans

The founder of the Jelly Belly bean line, David Klein, has come up with an unusual luxury treat: jelly beans, with exotic flavours, that are coated with 24-karat gold. The price tag is $500 per jar.
They're not just blinged-out candy, though. The beans are supposed to represent "deconstructed meals," bursting with exotic flavors, like Thai Lemongrass Curry and Indian Mango Chutney.
Needless to say, the bulk of reactions balked at the price tag.


Well...it can now be said that you can eat gold if you want to. Some tony restaurants are already including gold-flecked dishes in their menu.
