Graze.com Box 26 Review

What I get and why I get it

Graze.com is a healthy snack mail order subscription service. They send you four healthy snacks and you pay them $6.00. You can have them come weekly or every other week. You can also email them and have them customize your schedule like I did. I get one box a week and an extra box every four weeks. You can get the regular boxes or you can have the "light" boxes which only have snacks with 150 calories or less. I get the regular snacks because I believe in having some high calorie days and the flapjacks are to die for. You get your first box free when you sign up. If you use a referral code, you get your first and fifth boxes free. My code is JAIMIE49P. It will get me a dollar off of a future box or I can donate the money to the farming school. I don't share my referral code so I can get a dollar. I share my code so you can get the extra free box. I think it's important to try five boxes before you decide what to do. The first box isn't personalized so you might end up with things that you wouldn't have requested. After a few boxes, you should have a good idea of whether you want to continue or not. I doubt you'll want to stop them though. I love them!

The Packaging

The snacks come in a paperboard box. It's recycled and recyclable. The inside cover art changes periodically. Every time I think I've had them all, a new one shows up. The snacks are in rigid plastic with a plastic peel away lid. 


Summer Berry Flapjack

This is a rustic rolled oat flapjack with berry  infused cranberries. I'm not really sure why you need to infuse a cranberry with berries since it's already a berry, but it's yummy so I don't care. I adore flapjacks. This is one of the best flavors. I marked this love from the start. I had it in Box 21, Box 16, Box 10, and Box 4. The texture is amazing. The flavor is amazing! If I'm stressed out at work and I need a quick pick me up, I would grab these instead of the Reese's Peanut Butter Cup I have stashed in my drawer. They probably have the same calorie count, but this has healthy stuff in it an the Reese's doesn't.     


Salted Fudge & Peanut Cookie

This has salted peanuts, redskin peanuts, vanilla fudge and mini chocolate cookies. The chocolate cookies are salty which makes them even more yummy. I'm not a huge fan of redskin peanuts, but they work in this. I got this in Box 21. I marked it Like then even though I loved it. I didn't think it was a good idea to eat this too often. I think I'll bump it up to Love. I really like those little cookies! 


The Cheese Board

This has cheese cashiers, salsa corn sticks and herb crackers. I really like this snack. It's usually the last one I eat since it's not sweet, but it really does help with my need for crunchy stuff. I got it in Box 23, Box 19, and Box 7. I have it marked Like even though I Love it. I'm trying to keep my processed foods down to a minimum. I think in time, I'll probably move this down to Try and then down to Trash not because I don't like it, but only because I want to get into a whole foods diet.    


Key Lime Pie

This has lime raisins, mini meringue, sponge pieces and green raisins. I marked this as Love from the word go. I know that I just mentioned that I'm trying to avoid processed foods, but this is just too yummy to pass up. Maybe in time, I'll get over my need for super sweet yummies, but for now I'm going to eat them! I had this in Box 19, Box 11, and Box 6.   


Nutritional Information

Here is the nutrition sheet that comes with each box. It also has the expiration dates. On the other side, it has your referral code and some fun little stuff. There are sometimes puzzles or just information.
