Graze Box (February 2015)

Hi everyone!

Last week I received my second Graze box, and I was just as impressed as the first!

"As with all my subscriptions, I like to give a little info on what exactly they are in case any readers are not sure what type of service each box provides! Graze is a $6.99 (shipping included) subscription that can be sent every week, every two weeks, or every month. In your box you receive 4 sampling's of graze's all-natural snacks and trail mixes!"

So lets dive right into this weeks snack selections (sorry if my pictures have a bit of a glare):


Cheese and Chive Oatbakes
At first I was super excited to see these in my box because in my last box I received a similar product that was my absolute favorite. However, I was kind of disappointed by this snack! These were wholegrain cheese and chive crackers or "oatbakes" with a caramelized onion marmalade. While I was skeptical of the onion marmalade it was very tasty with an excellent flavor, but a slightly weird texture due to the onion pieces. My main issue with this snack was the oatbakes, I did not find these very tasty at all and really wish they had a better flavor.


White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake
This trail mix was super tasty, I totally wish I could get this mix at the store! This consisted of white chocolate, raspberry cranberries, and hazelnuts. I am not much for rasins, but these raspberry flavored crasins were really good and I adore hazelnuts! I will say that I thought it was odd to call this "cheesecake", but otherwise, it was thoroughly enjoyed!


Beach Bum
Sorry about the glare on this photo, but it consisted of pineapple, coconut flakes, and chewy banana coins. I was not a huge fan of this mix, but it did give it a try before passing it off to my mother. The banana coins and pineapple pieces were SUPER chewy, but the bananas had a nice sweet flavor, while the pinapple were kind of lacking in flavor. The coconut flakes were yummy but there were too many of them compared to the amount of fruit.


Summer Berry Flapjack
My absolute favorite of all the snacks were these little granola bars or "flapjacks". Personally, I am from the south and we call our pancakes "flapjacks", but maybe in other places that is what they call granola bars? These were rolled oats and berry-infused cranberries. The bars were so tender, fresh, and yummy, probably one of the best granola bars I have ever had (and I really enjoy trying granola bars)! I am looking into ordering some of these in the larger bag options that graze has began offering. 

Overall, I was happy with my box this week! All my snacks were eaten and my box of course arrived right on time! Up to this point I was receiving my Graze Box for $3.49 per box because I started my subscription during a promotion where I got my first two boxes 1/2 off. However, the boxes generally cost $6.99 which I do think is steep for the amount of food you are getting. I planned to cancel my Graze box after this one, but when I went to cancel, they offered another box 1/2 off! So, I will be posting about this box at least one more time!

If you would like to give Graze a try for free you can use this promo code when you place your order: D7RZ6HYKB. This code will get you your first box FREE and if you continue the subcription you will also get your fifth box free! However, if you want to cancel after trying out the first box you totally can! 

Until next time, Cookie Kate <3
