Ho, ho, ho — it’s the time to be jolly. And what better way to get into the Christmas spirit than with an advent calendar? But wait... these aren’t just any chocolate advent calendars; we’re talking about alternative advent calendars.

What’s that? “Blasphemy,” we hear you say. “It can’t be... Rudolph would be ashamed.” Well, maybe we’re exaggerating just a tad.

But hear us out: Christmas comes around every year — a little different in 2020, no doubt — but invariably the same.

The kids (and the adults, of course) dive into a chocolate-consumed craze, blissfully unaware of the myriad of pleasures that span beyond the milky squares of chocolate we demolish by the handful each year.

So why fall into the same routine? Spice things up. Maybe Santa gets the carrot and the reindeers the milk and cookies — live a little dangerously. What’s the worst that can happen? You get put on the naughty list?
