Menu Mash-Up is a food game for kids and and adults that challenges players to put ingredient cards together in order to fulfill a specific order. This could include satisfying a request for a romantic dinner or a midnight snack, which is a great way to help everyone learn something new when it comes to creativity and cooking.
The packaging for the game was designed to look like a recipe box, complete with menu-style holsters for each player to set their various ingredient and prep playing cards in. As well as teaching kids how to prepare a variety of practical meals, another benefit to playing this game is that it is totally mess-free, and the only cleanup required is putting everything back in the box once the game is done.
