Post Your Graze Boxes!

[Playedinloops]

Sadly, I've decided to cancel. I've really been loving my graze box, but I realize I'm just eating extra snacks rather than replacing things. Just doesn't make sense money or calorie wise to keep getting graze. 

 

[gemstone]

My 4th box (got it today) was baaaaaaaad.  I had my settings on "more likes and loves" and they sent me THREE TRIES and one like.   - Peking Dynasty - yuck - Billionaire Shortbread - good, but I just learned that I don't like almonds. - Shangri-La - more almonds, and I don't like pumpkin seeds - Super Berry Detox - haven't tried it yet, maybe it'll be good! But it's just helping me realize that cancelling was a good idea for more than just shipping issues.  The snacks that I did like, I can easily recreate, and I just bought Essie's Oatbakes from the Goodies website, hopefully that plus some blackberry jam is a good substitute for the shortbread and fruit compote! It was my favorite, and I didn't know how I could go on through life without it 

If you don't like almonds, why didnt you just trash all the almonds? For those who aren't canceling ad have a similar problem: I had this happen to me and they credited me half a box. They still haven't sent me a "more likes than tries" box, but it has at least been half/half. This is more my fault than theirs though, I trashed a lot of stuff as I am not interested in anything with yogurt or anything I can more easily recreate (like the ones with just easy to come by dried fruits and nuts).

Actually, I said this:

- Billionaire Shortbread - good, but I just learned that I don't like almonds

As in, just then, because they sent me a snack with almonds.  I'd never tried them before.  So there was no way for me to trash them, before I knew if I liked them or not.  I'm not their fault I didn't enjoy the box, I just wish they had taken my request for more likes/loves into consideration, that way it would have been more likely for me to receive only one snack I didn't like, instead of 3.  It's not worth it to me to try to get a 1/2 price box out of it, I'm just going to stick to my regular snacks (mmmm, fresh fruit!) and if they are ever able to expand their selection to where I'm not trashing a hefty percentage, then I'll consider coming back.

Apparently there is something wrong with me because I HATED Hot Crossed Yum. The orange infused raisins tasted like what I'd imagine those orange-scented cleaning products would taste like. And I actually normally LIKE oranges and raisins. I didn't really like the cinnamon honey almonds either. That was actually the first snack out of three boxes that I couldn't finish.  Yesterday I had the Herby Bread Basket. I put it as a "like". The basil breadsticks are really good. The oregano rice crackers were kind of meh, but overall it was pretty good.  Today I tried the Super Berry Detox. It was better than I thought. The cranberries made it a little tart, but it wasn't as tart as I thought it would be. I'll keep it as a "try".  This week I'm supposed to get: -Marvelous Macaroon -Omega Booster Seeds -Cheddar Gorge  -Eleanor's Apple Crumble

You're not alone, I didn't like those orange raisins either. Too fake tasting. I had to trash all raisins. I don't mind raisins in oatmeal or a snack bar but a handful is not to my liking.

Yep, definitely new.

It doesn't sound like something I'll love, but I'm going to leave it as a try...give it a shot.

So I was all set to trash peking dynasty. But then I finished it and wanted more.

Can you still change your rating on it? I have it in a coming box and the trash/like etc options are gone.Seems like they are removing it.

It's completely gone for me, so it must have been yanked. Time to double-check how many items are in the gallery and see if I can find another new thing!

I literally just ate the whole box I got today.  Anyone know where you can buy larger sizes of snacks like these online?

Same for me. I try really hard to only eat one of the graze snacks a day >___< I love their lemon poppy and tea snack and I can't seem to find the exact snack anywhere else!

That's great.  I don't want to get bored.  Hope they add olives and popcorn like they have in the UK box.

Seems like Graze quietly slips new items into the inventory. 

This is new:

I know right?  They just added a "graze brownie" to the UK version too.  The popcorn and the guilt free high tea also look fantastic.  I am assuming they have not included all these due to shipping issues/time.  I hope they eventually do.

Im not pleased at all I have not received this box for this week and It looks like Ive been charged twice... not very happy 
I have two authorizations for $5 on my account from last night, but those are just authorizations that occur when the bisuness pings your account to check for the money before actually charging. Usually one of the authorizations will fall off and only the one charge will stick. If both authorizations go through and process as actual charges, I would email them and let them know.

Update: One of the two $5 authorizations from Friday fell off, and only one charge for $5 stuck and was processed through my account last night.

Yes! And the tea and cake options too.  I like the variety they offer and hope it continues to expand.

Maybe the "apricot torte" or "walnut and vanilla truffle" is new? I also agree that the "Texas corn salsa" looks new.

I e-mailed them and they said "We are in the very early stages of our US launch at the moment but in time we definitely hope to extend our US range further".

So I'll try to be patient and wait it out.  But I have a feeling once I try every one of my favorites........

The new ones say new next to them. I hope my box comes early this week. I am down to one snack. Summer Berry Compote.

I have been sneakily using graze snacks as take to class "meal replacements" They keep me from being so hungry, but I'm not eating a whole meal. 

I have terrible eating habits as it is, skip breakfast, 50/50 skip lunch, be hella hungry then actually cook a healthy dinner. 

I also have a class wednesday night that has a film viewing portion, and everybody brings snacks and wine, so I save some graze snacks for that class so I'm not tempted to eat the candy a popcorn everybody else brings, but still get to munch. (and everybody is always jealous of my little packs /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />)

Most of the time, but Texas Corn Salsa doesn't say new by it and I'm about 99 percent sure it is....

I'm really excited for them to add new things. So hoping for the olives and some of the other goodies soon.
