The reward for answering is of course NOTHING! No Google Cheating!
His jelly bean habit started long before he was elected President. He was trying to give up smoking a pipe.

The Jelly Belly company sent 3 and 1/2 tons of red, white, and blue jelly beans for his Inauguration parties. (Blueberry, Very Cherry, and Coconut) They continued to send jelly beans for all 8 years.

The company got permission to make an official Jelly Belly jar with the Presidential Seal. He gave these as gifts.

His favorite flavor was licorice. (Mine, too.)

That’s all I know. Nothing else to add. No cheese flavored jelly beans that I know of.
