Free Snacks!: Graze Box Review

I love this new trend of subscription boxes! You can get pretty much anything sent to you monthly- make-up, clothes, toys, and best of all, snacks! I wouldn't exactly call myself a "foodie" but I DO love to eat. My biggest problem is portion control when snacking- I'm the type of person who will sit down with a brand new box of Oreos and not stop until they're gone... not good!

When I heard about Graze Box, I knew it was perfect for me. They offer a huge variety of snacks and their options allow you to input your preferences, so you get snacks you love that meet your dietary needs. ALL of Graze's snacks are completely non-GMO, and they are committed to avoiding artificial ingredients like aspartame. You can read more about their nutrition info here. You can easily let them know to exclude dairy, wheat, nuts, spicy foods, and even animal products from your box. They also have low calorie options that you can select.




Each snack comes in a small "graze" sized portion for about 100-200 calories, and the little packs are perfect for popping in your purse, diaper bag or lunch box. You can have these snacks delivered twice a week, once a week, or once every two weeks depending on your preference.

I had a code to get a couple of boxes FREE, so I jumped on that chance to order :) Keep reading, and you can get free Graze Boxes too!

When you first sign up, they send you an e-mail letting you know when your first box will be prepared. They also recommend that you login and go rate some snacks to make sure your box is full of yummy things you'll love.

I logged on and rated a few things- their options are "trash", "try", "like", and "love" and the variety of snacks is truly astonishing! They have different sizes of snack boxes, and I selected the "Nibble" box option. My box arrived a few days later... yay!

There is nothing quite as fun as getting free food in the mail, for real! I popped open the box and the first thing I found was a little card with all the nutrition and allergen information for each snack. The card also included a code to give out to friends and family so they could get free snacks too... awesome!





Each Nibble box includes 4 one-serving sized snacks, and mine was a good variety of different things. Once your box arrives, the contents also show up on your GrazeBox.com account. Here's what I got:

Cookies & Cream:

As soon as I opened my box, I went right for this one first! Chocolate... cookies... nuts... oh yeah, sign me up! The cookie pieces were crunchy and sweet, and the white chocolate was perfectly creamy! I had never tried hazelnuts before, but they were totally delicious, and the sunflower seeds provided the perfect amount of crunchiness to finish out this mix. Even though this was the highest calorie snack in the box, it was still only 210 calories for the portion. I really enjoyed this snack and will definitely keep on my "love" list.
Overall grade: A!

Mississippi BBQ Pistachios: 

I love pistachios but I'm not a huge BBQ fan so i was a little wary of this snack. Oh my goodness were these good! Perfect sized portion for an afternoon pick-me-up, and salty enough to curb my potato chip craving without being too much. Very yummy!
Overall grade: A!

Super Berry Detox:

I packed this in my lunch for my 3 p.m. snack one day. It wasn't my favorite, but I'm not a huge fan of dried fruit in the first place. I think the berries alone are just too much of the same, but added to a handful of nuts this would probably be a great snack. Not bad, but I think I'll put this on my "trash" list for future boxes. Overall grade: C-

Salsa Corn Chips:

I don't like spicy foods in general but in an effort to be open-minded, I left spicy foods as an option for my graze box snacks. I was a little nervous the salsa in this snack would be too spicy, but it was delightful! Very fresh wish a little bite to it but more tangy than actually spicy. The chips really impressed me. The flax seeds added a little more substance to what is otherwise a traditional corn chip, these were perfectly crunchy and not too salty. Major home run. Overall grade: A+!



These were really fun to get, and even more fun to eat. I'm really looking forward to my next box! If you want to get FREE graze boxes, now is your chance!
