Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...
This year’s award has to go to the Jelly Belly-filled menorah lit Wednesday night at Jelly Belly headquarters in Fairfield, Calif. Each of the eight branches was filled with Jelly Bellys, which have been OU-certified since 2008. The culprit behind the venture was Rabbi Chaim Zaklos of Chabad of Solano County.
A close runner-up is the menorah carved out of ice spotted last Saturday night in Boca Raton, Florida, also sponsored by Chabad. Not as tasty, perhaps, but pretty impressive for kids not used to seeing snow.
