April 22 is National Jelly Bean Day.  Food “holidays” are pretty irrelevant right now, but in such stressful times, something as simple as a jelly bean can provide a small dose of positivity, a reason to smile.

That’s the hope from Jelly Belly Candy Company which has made a donation of 1 million bags of jelly beans to first responders.  Working with Operation Gratitude, the bags will be making their way to those whom we owe so much gratitude.
