I signed up for this box last week and I was searching for reviews and found this forum! I even found out I had an account here that I haven't used for several years /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> It's nice to be back!
Anyways, I am on the west coast (SoCal) and I received my box last Thursday. For some dumb reason, I thought I would skip a week and maybe make the box bi-monthly instead of weekly (push it off a week every time I get a box). I'm seriously regretting that now and I'm so sad I won't get a box this week. I realized I'm spending more than $5/week on snacks anyways, so it's worth it if it keeps me from buying crap at the grocery store. These are better for me anyways.
This was my box from last week: https://www.graze.com/us/b/9QLHJ
I'm trying to make it last, so I have one left and have tried three of them so far:
-Fruit & Seed Flapjack: Wasn't a fan. I can't pinpoint exactly WHY I didn't like it, but this one was "trashed" on the website once I finished it.. I did like the texture of the flapjacks though - soft and chewy. I was expecting them to be more hard and crunchy like a granola bar. So I wouldn't mind trying another flapjack in a future box.
-The British Barbeque: Ate this one today. I liked part of it - the toasted almonds were good and so were the mini basil breadsticks. I didn't care for the rosemary crostini (tasted like bland croutons) and the fiery seeds were a little too fiery for me. They weren't really that hot probably to most people, but I hate anything spicy at all. I debated leaving this one as a "try", but decided to trash it for now. I'd rather try something else.
-Garden of England: The apples and mini strawberries were DELICIOUS. Very soft and chewy instead of crunchy - I liked that. I didn't like the blackcurrants though. They were really bitter. I guess you're supposed to eat them with the sweeter strawberries and apples, but I'm weird and eat each piece of this kind of stuff individually. I put this as a "like" since I really enjoyed the strawberries and apples. It would have been "love" if it weren't for the blackcurrants.
I also got Yin & Yang, but I haven't tried that one yet. It looks good, so I don't think it's going to last much longer though. I really wish I was getting this weeks box now!
