The best part? It’s from Trader Joe’s.
“This is the most slept on holiday item at Trader Joe’s,” she began.
The seasonal costs only $6.99 and comes with 12 different chocolate covered caramels in a festive red and white box.
“I love to get it as a gift for friends and family,” she said, grabbing a few boxes at once.
Besides being a tasty snack, the gift also doubles as a game.
“There are 12 different flavors, and you don’t know which one is which when you open the box. The answers are on the bottom of the sleeve when you pull it out.”

If you’re playing with two or four people, she recommended cutting each square into two or four pieces so that everyone gets a taste.
“Then you try each one and write down your guesses.”
The flavors include gingerbread, crème brûlée, lavender, and maple – and while she noted that some of them are easy to detect, others are “really hard because they taste so similar.”
Megan filmed herself playing along with some friends who were getting very into the game.
“This was such a fun activity. I highly recommend,” she said, noting that it would be her new “holiday tradition.”
Viewers loved the idea.
“This is exactly the kind of game I’d go feral for,” one wrote.
“My fiancé and I do this every year together and it’s my favorite thing,” added another.
