So I just played this game with my kids called Bean Boozled. It's a jellybean game where you spin the wheel and choose a color of jellybean to eat. You might get a good tasting one (if there's a such thing with jellybeans), or you might get one that tastes like shit. Of course, every time I ate one it was a shitty one. I managed to eat booger flavored, grass clippings, dead fish, old cheese, and barf. I finally said the hell with it and quit. My breath smelled, and tasted like a bum's asshole (assumption, no first hand knowledge) after that dead fish one. Whew!

Yeah, that makes this game sound pretty weak. Your dad wins this round.
 
Why would anybody do this.
It's basically Russian Roulette w/ food.
From what I can tell, you have a 50% chance of failure. 50%? Really?
The creators of this games have failed to consider the most basic rules of learning a food aversion.
Negative food responses (e.g. things that taste shitty) have a WAAAAY more powerful and long-lasting learning response than things that taste good. This is what keeps animals alive - you quickly learn to avoid things that taste bad.

It's only going to take a couple of bad tastes for you to hate the game, whereas it would take like 10x as many good ones to balance it out to seem worth it.
 
Played this once. I believe I got Moldy cheese. It wasn't that bad but I gave up afterwards b/c I was too afraid of getting canned dog food. I mean, dog food would one thing - but canned? No thanks.
Confession: Later that evening, I did chew/swallow a skunk one on a dare. My breath smelled (unusually) horrible for hours...

Negative, I think they won. Curiosity will make people buy. Then they get a whole thread on NC4X4 about it. I've never heard of it, but I might want to check it out. I have a 5 year old daughter that would probably love it.
 
I'll just stick to the giant bag of knock-off jelly bellys from Walmart that don't include skunk flavor...

Skunk is pretty damn bad.

I got one too. No kisses from the wife after that. Moldy cheese made me gag and I've got an iron stomach.
