Tasty Tacos posted the announcement on its Facebook page on Wednesday.

"Its official," the business wrote. "You can now buy Tasty Tacos Taco Seasoning at your local Hy-Vee! Stock up for your holiday parties!!"

The seasoning is a blend of chili peppers, garlic, cumin, salt and other spices that Tasty Tacos uses to make its tacos taste, well, tasty.

The directions are simple — just add one packet of seasoning, one pound of ground beef and 1/4 cup water to a large skillet, brown and drain. And you can optionally add one 16-ounce drained can of pinto beans.

The seasoning is also sold on the Tasty Tacos website and includes three 0.7-ounce packets for $5.25.
