Some batches are more sticky than others. If you get a 100% perfect batch then you will have no problems at all, but they don't come round very often.

Bookers Tuck Shop and Hancocks Kingsway are both the same and what ive used for 5 years.
If you squeeze the bag and the beans don't move freely, leave them alone as they'll stick and jam.
The new ingredients are much nicer too.

Well in my experience, any Jelly beans no matter who the manufacture, will stick if they get warm!
