Graze Box Review

These monthly box delivery things are super ~in~ apparently.  I always see new ones pop up on my Facebook feed.  Today I saw a really expensive one that sends you coffee monthly.  One of my Tumblr followers had extra invite codes for Graze so I decided to try it out.  Graze sends a box of 4 different snacks to you for $6 (including shipping) however often you choose.  I thought it would be a good thing to bring to work and keep in my desk for when I am hungry.

When you register for Graze, they encourage you to look through all of their snack options online and select how interested you are in trying each one.  A lot of them include dried fruit or nuts but are combined with other ingredients in innovative ways.  They offer a lot of options that I wanted to try  but I personally chose not to receive any of the spicy things.  Another cool thing about Graze is that your 1st and 5th box are free!



You can choose one of two size options and one of three delivery options.  I chose the larger box option and for it to be sent monthly.  My box arrived promptly with the following items:



One thing I was kind of sad about was the size of the whole thing.  I guess I should have expected it to be small based off the price.  The FAQ actually lists the dimensions of the box as 23cm x 17cm x 2.5cm but I hadn't seen that before ordering it.  I'm personally not one of those people who is super conscious about food quantities so I usually eat more than what was available to me with these snacks.  So another thing I am kind of sad about is that you can't order any of the things you like in a larger quantity.






All the snacks were really yummy though.  The thing they call a "flapjack" was kind of similar to a granola bar but way less dry.  I don't know how else to describe it but I'm not a huge fan of granola bars and I thought this was pretty good.
