Since I lost my SD Card, there is no actual evidence of the snacks I have received thus far. I have eaten every morsel and I will continue to do so. I will start with sharing photos of Box #4 and Box #6. Somehow, it arrived before Box #5, but I have high hopes that it will arrive this week yet :)
In previous boxes, I have enjoyed most everything with the exception of 2 items that I "trashed" on their website.
Box #1
Orange and Ginger Flapjack- My first favorite. I loved every bite. Flapjacks are the U.K.'s version of kind of a granola bar I guess. Made from rolled oats, oranges and a little ginger, soft and chewy. Photo from their website at graze.com
Florentine- pumpkin seeds, dark chocolate buttons and dried cranberries. I liked the chocolate and the cranberries but there were just too many pumpkin seeds, and the seeds were plain. That isn't a problem, it was just too many. I trashed this one.
Peking Dynasty- peking cashews, baked soy bites and dried black beans. This wasn't my thing either and was also trashed. I didn't mind the cashews..yum. Or the soy bites. But the beans were nasty.
Chili and Lime Pistachios- I didn't get to try this one. We were visiting my husband at his apartment so I thought he needed a little treat...pistachios are one of his favorite. He said they were awesome and now I regret sharing. Hopefully I will get them as a repeat and have a chance to taste them.
Box #2
Vanilla Cherry Frangipane- dried cherries, almonds, vanilla pumpkin and vanilla sunflower seeds. I like this one ok, but it wasn't a wow for me. I did enjoy the flavor of the vanilla though. I left it as a try once in a while.
Pomodoro Rustichella- cheese croutons, tomato, basil and oregano almonds and mini tomato breadsticks. I loved this one. I am finding that I really like the savory mixes a lot. Great flavors!
Toffee Apple Dipper- sticky toffee sauce with granny smith apple slices. Their version of dried apples is different than ours. They are more chewy and soft, but I really liked it. Even though I am trying to cut back on sugar, I figure this is a better option than sitting down with a bag of chips or a big candy bar.
Sticky Chocolate Pudding- milk chocolate drops, jumbo raisins and green raisins. I left this one as a try also. It's not terrible, it didn't knock my socks off and I guess I would rather continue to try new things and find favorites rather than eating something I am meh about.
Box #3
Summer Pudding- yogurt coated sunflower seeds, blackcurrants, sponge pieces and cranberries. This one was good. I would take a bite of the yogurt seeds with a bit of cranberries or currant and sponge and chew it all together and it would have a wonderful flavor. A little sweet but still good.
Olive and Rosemary Bruschetta- mini tomato breadsticks, rosemary and garlic cashews and kalamata olive crouton. YUM! Again, the savories are the way to go for me. I throw a package into my purse and always have a little something just in case. Photo from their website at graze.com.
Mississippi BBQ Pistachios- roasted pistachios with BBQ seasoning. Love them and so did my daughter. Not spicy, not sweet, just a good flavor with a kick.
Marvelous Macaroon: This box had the macaroon, but I just ate it today. See pic and review of it below
I will try to remember to update the offerings as I eat them!
Box #4
Super Berry Detox- blueberries, green raisins, goji berries and cranberries
Fruity Mango Chutney- fruity mango chutney with black pepper dippers . This was ok. The dippers were not the greatest but the chutney was good and was spicy sweet.
Marvelous Macaroon- originally in Box #3. Bits of coconut, almond slices, mini meringues and white chocolate buttons. I really liked this one. Mix and match the bits in each bite and get a little bit different taste each time.
Honeycomb Crunch- milk chocolate coated honeycomb, raisins and almonds
Cheddar Gorge- cheese cashews, baked herb bites and salsa corn sticks
Box #6
Black Pepper Pistachios- roasted pistachios with black pepper
Pina Colada- pineapple, coconut flakes and mango
Banoffee Pie- fudge pieces, almond slices, pecan nuts and banana coins
El Picante- jumbo salted corn, hot chili peanuts and mini paprika breadsticks
UPDATE
Box #5 - MIA - officially arrived as of 3/16, a little beat up but all the food was still sealed and intact!!
Honeycomb Flapjack- rustic rolled oat flapjack with honeycomb and milk chocolate
Hickory Smoked Nuts & Seeds- smoked almonds, smoked cashews, roasted pumpkin and roasted sunflower seeds
Bounty Hunter- milk chocolate drops, coconut flakes and cranberries
Smoky Gazpacho Dip- smoky gazpacho relish with wholemeal crisp bread slices. This was actually pretty good. It's almost a sweet BBQ with a little tang, like a smoked tomato marmalade. I like it but I needed a couple more of the little bread crisps to finish off the dip.
I love Graze. I haven't disliked a single snack yet! I thought I'd hate the flapjacks since I hate anything granola - but they're super soft and delicious! They knocked my invites down to one though, which really disappointed my readers.
ReplyDeleteI love it too, it's probably becoming my favorite subscription. Here's to hoping for an extra invite or two at some point. I really do want to order another one on the every other week schedule for the kids.
