12th "Meat-Hook" Milk Chocolate & Smoked Salt - Christmas Edition

Meat-Hook (Ketkrókur) is the twelfth of the Icelandic Yule lads to arrive. He comes down from the mountains on the night of December 23rd. He is one of the most daring - and hungriest - of them all. Meat-Hook is a resourceful thief. He roams the countryside around Christmas, carrying a long hook or pole with a curved end. When everyone is busy or asleep, he uses it to reach through chimneys, doors, or rafters to hook out pieces of meat - especially smoked lamb, known as “hangikjöt”, a traditional Icelandic Christmas dish.
