‘Tis the season to get chubby! The local foodie page Ch-EAT has done it again and we’re drooling like there’s no tomorrow with their latest gooey creation. Their latest creation proposes adding Toblerone chocolate to the traditional imbuljuta Christmas drink mix. It's basically the food goals we didn't know we need.
