Graze Box #003

This Graze Box originally had 8 snacks but I usually share these boxes with my mom so she took the three she wanted. I was left with some pretty good ones though!

Brooklyn Bites - poppyseed pretzels,  cheese cashews, & roasted pumpkin seeds
Peachy Orchard - peach drops, rhubarb, & pear
Grilled Cheese - sweet mustard breadsticks, cheddar bruschetta, & smoked cashews
Vanilla Walnut Fudge - walnuts, vanilla pumpkin seeds, fudge, and raisins

The Peachy Orchard and the Vanilla Walnut Fudge are my favorites! I LOVE peach and I wish I could get a whole bag of just peach drops.

The popcorn unfortunately wasn't anything to write home about. It was just average popcorn that had a tiny bit of salt. It really didn't have much flavor to it. Then again, I'm not a huge fan to begin with, the only time I do eat popcorn is if I get it when I go to the movies. (And we all know that the popcorn at movie theaters is full of butter and salt, but hey isn't that what makes it so good?) Anyway, if you love popcorn and are looking for something a bit healthier than I would certainly recommend this! It's a single serving so it'd be perfect if you're watching a movie by yourself sometime.


Overall, I was pretty pleased with this box. I enjoyed pretty much everything inside, which is always a nice surprise.

Do you guys get Graze Boxes? Have you tried any of these snacks? 

Graze Box #002

I'm back with another Graze Box post! Of course, Graze Box is a snack subscription box that sends you healthy and tasty snacks right in your mailbox. You can even customize your tastes, so if they send you something you're not too fond of, you can go online and mark it off so they won't send it to you again!

Natural Vanilla Seeds - vanilla pumpkin and sunflower seeds.
Beach Bum - pineapple, coconut flakes, and chewy banana coins.
Chili & Honey Almonds - roasted almonds seasoned with chili and honey.
Deconstructed Carrot Cake - carrot chews, cinnamon raisins, ginger fudge & walnuts

Japanese Miso - soup with wakame seaweed & a side of edamame beans.
Banana Caramel Dippers - banana shortbread with caramel sauce.
Vitamin E Defense - hazelnut, peanut, cranberry, & raisin.
Herby Bread Basket - basil baguettes, garlic crostini, and oregano rice crackers.

My favorite snacks were the Chili & Honey Almonds, Herby Bread Basket, Banana Caramel Dippers, and the Deconstructed Carrot Cake. They were all super tasty and it was the perfect mix of sweet and salty.

The Japanese Miso was the first snack I've gotten that you have to prepare...of course I don't know if I'd call it preparing anything if you're just pouring hot water into a mug, but still. I wanted it to be more filling so I made some ramen to mix in with the miso broth.

Unfortunately, I really disliked the miso soup. It was super salty and just had a very odd taste. I've never had miso in a restaurant so I'm willing to give it a try again, but the miso from Graze box was just not a winner.

Graze Box #001

I have been so eager to try Graze Box for such a long time and we finally jumped on the bandwagon! If you aren't familiar with Graze, let me explain it a little to you. Graze is a subscription box that sends you a personalized box of healthy and delicious snacks every two weeks. They have a variety of different boxes and snacks to match whatever taste you have! After you order your first box, you can go to their site and look through over 100 different snack options and pick which ones you will like, love, be willing to try, or want to trash. A 4-snack box like this is only $7 and the prices go up as you order bigger boxes, but they are all quite reasonable and I feel it's definitely worth the money!

This first box was kind of a wild card. We had no idea what was going to be in it and really didn't know what we were in for. This one is the 4-snack box, we have currently an 8-snack box on the way which I'm very excited to try!

The two snacks I noticed immediately was the Dark Rocky Road and the Pizza Margherita, they looked so good! And they didn't disappoint at all! Dark Rock Road was a great chocolate snack without it being too sweet, and the Pizza Margherita actually tasted like pizza! it was my favorite. I also loved the Lightly Toasted Pistachios, but they weren't too exciting. I really didn't enjoy the Lemon Almond Cookie Dippers and Blueberry Compote however. But that's only because I really hate lemon and blueberry flavors, any other two flavors and I probably would have loved it!

I'm really glad that I finally got to try Graze and I really look forward to testing out future boxes. Would this be something you all would be interested in hearing about two times a month? I want to incorporate more food into my blog but recipes and cooking won't happen for another few months.

Have you tried Graze Box?
