**Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans** are one of the most popular sweets in the wizarding world. Invented by Bertie Bott, they are almost the same as Muggle jelly beans, except the range encompasses every flavour imaginable. There is also no way of telling for sure what flavour any given bean is without tasting it, although you can try and guess by the colour.

There are ordinary flavours like chocolate, peppermint, and marmalade, but also less fanciable ones like spinach, liver, and tripe. There are also flavours that are not actual foods like grass, farm dirt, vomit, earwax, paper, and bogeys.

At Sugarplum's Sweets Shop, they are priced at 6 Sickles per box.

## History

> "*You want to be careful with those. When they say every flavour, they* mean *every flavour — you know you get all the ordinary ones like chocolate and peppermint and marmalade, but then you can get spinach and liver and tripe. George reckons he had a bogey-flavoured one once.*"

The inventor of Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans was the eponymous Bertie Bott, who created them in the mid-20th century by mistake. He was planning on making tasty sweets from food, but accidentally made one taste like a dirty sock. He immediately recognised the sales potential of "*a risk with every mouthful!"*

According to Ron Weasley, there are ordinary flavours like chocolate and peppermint and marmalade, but also more adventuresome ones like spinach and liver and tripe. George Weasley said he'd had a booger-flavored one.

In 1992, while Harry is in the hospital wing, he offered one to Professor Dumbledore. Dumbledore told him that he had been unfortunate enough to have come across a vomit-flavored one in the past, and since that occasion, he had not cared for them. In spite of this, he decided to give them another chance and carefully selected a golden brown-colored one that he assumed would be toffee-flavored, but it turned out to be an earwax-flavored bean.

They were advertised at the 422nd Quidditch World Cup on a large sign, showing how famous and popular they are.

## Popularity

Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans are a popular sweet for kids at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. They buy them from the lunch trolley on the Hogwarts Express and from Honeydukes in Hogsmeade. They give them for Christmas gifts and as gifts when someone is ill and in the hospital wing. Bertie Bott's Beans are sold in bags or in small striped boxes.

## Known flavours

> "*Ah! Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans! I was most unfortunate in my youth to come across a vomit-flavoured one. And since then, I'm afraid I've lost my liking for them. But I think I could be safe with a nice toffee... Hum! Alas! Earwax.*"
