NatureBox

Recently I was able to get my hands on a completely free trial of Naturebox's Deluxe Box. Now I'd tried graze box, and found it horrible, I was praying that Naturebox wasn't the same box of yuck. Naturebox delivers a box full of goodies right to your door when you want it. The box can be tailored to your liking too! They have quite a few options for your subscription. -Right now they have a Free Trial option where you can receive a Deluxe Naturebox for $2.00 S&H. The Free Trial includes 5 preset snacks. -A monthly subscription for $19.95 where you get to choose your own snacks! -A 3 month subscription for $53.85 ($17.95 a month!) and you choose your snacks. -A 6 month subscription for $101.70 ($16.95 a month!) and you chose your snacks! Once you have subscribed there are further customization options such as frequency of delivery and size of box. Of course, the bigger the box the bigger the price (but it's totally worth it)! Each Naturebox snack is vegan, milk free, soy free, nut free, gluten free and Non-GMO (however they are packaged in a facility with these items, so if you have an allergy, I do not recommend trying). There is no high fructose corn syrup, artificial colors, flavors or sweeteners and 0 trans fats, 0 hydrogenated oils. These are 100% feel-good-about-it snacks.

Cranberry Almond Bites

Ingredients: Oven baked almonds, cane sugar, rice syrup, dried cranberries, crispy rice, brown rice, white rice, palm oil, natural flavor, sea salt, guar gum The Cranberry Almond Bites were the first snack I pulled out of the box. Simply packaged, with basic ingredient listing, I was totally turned off. Almonds? I hate almonds! I considered not even trying it and handing it off to my husband. But for the sake of the unboxing video, I went ahead and took one like a champ. I was so so so so wrong! These little bites of amazing tasty goodness are FANTASTIC. The crispy rice dulls the texture of the almonds (the one thing that gets me with those). They are like delicious little (healthy) rice krispies treats with a kick of cranberry. There are absolutely no words to describe how delicious these are. Crunchy with a light almond taste and a burst of cranberry, these little guys are my new favorite snack.

Whole Wheat Strawberry Figgy Bars

Ingredients: Stone ground whole wheat flour, dried cane syrup, brown rice syrup, fig paste, canola oil, strawberry paste (naturally milled sugar, organic dried cane syrup, strawberry puree, modified food starch, apple powder, natural flavor, glycerin, citric acid, pectin, locust bean gum, red cabbage extract [for color]), rolled oats, oat fiver, caramel color [ammonia free], sea salt, citric acid, natural flavor, baking soda, baking powder I knew right away that these would be like Fig Newtons. And I love me some Fig Newtons. But the taste. The taste. Is so much better than a Fig Newton. These taste amazing. They are chewy and soft, no hard little seeds in the paste. The strawberry taste is very subtle. It doesn't overpower the bar, making it too sweet. It's a just perfect blend between the whole wheat biscuit. A perfect after lunch treat. It's not too heavy that it leaves you feeling blah, but just enough of a treat to give you satisfaction.

Chocolate Banana Chips

Ingredients: Bananas, palm oil, natural flavors When I saw this on the "what's in my box" list, I immediate though chocolate covered dehydrated bananas. That excited me. A lot. And then I opened then package... I was a little disappointed at first. They just looked like dehydrated bananas with some sort of sugar on them. They didn't even look appetizing at that point. I had a sad. But as a total trooper, I pushed forward and popped one anyway. Oh. my. YUM. So much goodness in one little banana chip. I didn't really get 'chocolate' from it, but it was still sweet, almost more like a brown sugar taste. They are crunchy, which was a surprise since I am used to chewy banana chips. They had the usual banana chip 'tang', but the coating gave it a sweet tang. These would be terrific for an afternoon attack of the munchies.

Greek Yogurt Pretzels

Ingredients: Greek yogurt coating (sugar, palm kernel oil, milk protein concentrate, Greek yogurt

powder, nonfat milk, lactic acid, soy lecithin, vanilla), pretzels Called it! Tastes just like the holiday pretzels grandma used to make with almond bark and pretzels. These are crunchy little twists of happy. The Greek yogurt tastes nothing like the plain Greek yogurt from the grocer. With the tad of vanilla in there, it tastes so similar to almond bark, it would be hard to tell the difference. These guys would make a healthy replacement to the almond bark pretzels.

Cheddar & Onion Sunflower Kernels

Ingredients: Non-GMO sunflower kernels, sunflower oil, sweet onion and white cheddar seasoning blend (cane sugar, onion and garlic powder, cheddar cheese powder [cheddar cheese (pasteurized milk, cheese culture, salt, enzymes) buttermilk, salt, whey, disodium phosphate), salt, natural flavors, lactic acid, spices, silicon dioxide (to prevent caking) Now I love me some salted sunflower seeds. Any time, any where, I will munch those suckers down. I was not prepared for the ultimate sunflower seed that was about to grace my taste buds. Fantastically flavorful, these little nuggets taste like Sour Cream & Onion Pringles. I could eat handfuls of these for days. I don't know what else to say. I'm stuffing my face with them as we speak. Just. fantastic.

Santa Fe Corn Stix

Ingredients: Yellow corn masa, soybean oil, salsa seasoning (whey powder, tomato powder, salt, maltodextrin, green pepper powder, onion powder, natural flavors, spices and herbs, torula yeast, beet powder [for color], annatto [for color]) The immediate smell of these made my heart skip a beat. They smelled like...if you put taco seasoning on Fritos, know what I mean? A spicy, crispy chip strip, the Santa Fe corn stix satisfied the flavor monger in me. They are spicy, but not burning spicy. Just enough umph to make you want to cha-cha. These would make a great chip substitute. Instead of those Doritos, pick up a pack of tango-in-a-bag.

I couldn't believe how good this box was. I was expecting something somewhat horrible, but still edible. I was proven wrong, over and over again, with every bag. For the price, I would say this is a good deal. For (normally) five bags of yummy, good-for-you snacks, $19.95 is a steal. A big bag of Popped rice snacks in my area is almost $5.00! This is the first subscription box that I would absolutely, positively subscribed to. Naturebox has satisfied every hungry-girl craving I've had, and did so as a healthy alternative to my normal fatty snacks. I would definitely recommend Naturebox to anyone. Even if you aren't looking for a healthy snacking alternative. There is so much goodness packed into this box. It's like getting a stocking of candy in your mailbox each month. Seriously, give it a whirl!
