Get Your Chocolate Ready for National Trivia Day

Saturday, January 4, 2020, thousands of people around the world will be gathered at home, at pubs, at bars, and at gaming locales to play some game involving trivia because this coming Saturday is National Trivia Day! If you love chocolate, there are trivia games out there for you. Today we're going to look at one that I was gifted a few years back. Trivial Pursuit Chocolate Edition is made by the HASBRO company that also makes the Trivial Pursuit games you may have played over the past few decades. I've played them and we have several editions of it at home.

This game includes 33 pieces of milk chocolate. To be blunt this is more candy than chocolate because the first ingredient is sugar not chocolate liquor or cocoa mass. The trivia card pieces are really difficult  to read. Eight trivia card pieces have 213 calories so you know these can't be large pieces. The "trophy" is about the weight of two of the card pieces.






Let's check them out.

The Trivia Card Pieces measures 1.5 X 1.5X 0.25 inches and looks very plain. It is very sweet tasty, overwhelmingly sugary with barely a chocolate flavor.

The Trophy Piece looks like a thin medal or coin measuring 2.2 inches across and 0.3 inches thick. It has a design on one side only. This is the same chocolate and tastes exactly the same. I didn't eat it because it wasn't worth the calories.

You play the game in a similar fashion to Trivial Pursuit but you must answer all three questions on a card to win the piece of chocolate and the questions are on the chocolate. Honestly, you could and should simply add better quality chocolate to your trivia games and you'd have more fun and enjoy the prizes far more.
