Genghis Khan Caramel

In Japan Genghis Khan is a style of cooking lamb.  It is sort of spicy and maybe includes ginger but I cannot be sure.  My only taste of this so far has been courtesy Hokkaido Original Genghis Khan Caramels.  Yes that is spicy lamb flavoured chewy caramels.  Are they a sweet or a savoury snack?  All I can say is that they are not a breath freshener.  I would like to say that everyone should try them at least once but I can’t think of any real reason why.
