Free Food in this post!!! A Graze Box Review

Tuesday 16 December 2014

pssttt...the code for the free box is at the bottom - keep scrolling!

I decided to do a post about Graze boxes as, for me anyway, the revision period is rapidly approaching and if you're anything like me, that means non-stop snacking and gaining an extra few pounds... All in the name of good exam results right?

Now Graze has been around for a good few years now and basically they send you little parcels of yummy snacks, most of which are actually quite healthy! It's a great way of mixing up what you snack on and trying different foods.


The box is usually plain brown so it was a lovely surprise to get this festive parcel through my letter box :) 



What's great about Graze is that you can look through all the snacks that they offer and rate them as follows:

Bin
Try
Like
Love
Send soon

This week I got...


Banana cake with dates and hazelnuts and an afternoon infusion tea
The whole punnet is only a gob-smacking 56 calories!!! So you can have your cake an eat it..

What's next? 


Super Kale and Edamame with chia seeds, cashew butter and a twist of lime
Oooh well doesn't this sound fancy. I actually have no idea what edamame is but it sounds like it's good for you anyway! 


Basil and Garlic Olives
I never used to like olives but have recently learnt to love them. It's funny how our tastes change over the years. These lasted about ten minutes before I tore them open - no regrets!!! No literally, they came to only 133 calories!


Peanut Butter with pretzel sticks
You just can't go wrong with peanut butter! When I was little I'd sit with a jar of it in one hand and a spoon in the other and just eat as much as I could until my mum would find me hiding in the food cupboard! I'm looking forward to trying these ones, I have actually resisted them so far.

Now I will warn you, it's very easy to just demolish the lot in one sitting - they are that good! Luckily Graze are bringing out their new Big Box (see here) in the near future which includes a whopping 20 portions!!! They also do a Breakfast Box and Chocolate Box.

The box that I received costs £3.89 but if you use the following code, you can get your first, fifth and tenth box for free!!

  2. I have switched my usual graze box to the Chocolate Box recently as I was getting bored of constantly being sent the same snacks pretty much even though there were loads of things I hadn't tried that were tagged send soon.. I really liked them at first but I think the novelty has warn off a bit now.. xx

  3. The graze box actually sounds like a subscription service that I would use - I wonder if they have a vegan option?

    1. They have a page where you can manage your dietary requirements and you can choose to 'bin' all the snacks not suitable for vegans :) x

  6. I love graze, although I've postponed mine until after Christmas now! I definitely put on weight from revision time, it's the whole skipping the gym and cooking for crisps in the library!

  7. Oh, I do love a Graze box!! The banana cake is to die for, isn't it? The flapjacks are my absolute favourite though, the lemon one is divine! I really don't like olives but everyone keeps saying that you need to keep trying them and you will eventually love them, maybe I need to keep trying… :)
