Healthy Surprise Review, Round 2 December, 2013

                         
                                       



I love exploring healthy, vegan and natural food and snacks. I was very excited when Healthy Surprise said they would send me a second box to review for you guys!! Yay! If this is something that sounds perfect for you here is a link http://mbsy.co/healthy-surprise/1226453

So first a little about the company:
 
    Each Healthy Surprise box is filled to the brim with delicious, healthy snacks. Every month our snackologists work hard to put together a variety of healthy snacks to form the perfect snack box! We've partnered with the best snack companies in the country and work with them to deliver you a great variety each and every month. Every month you'll receive totally new snacks - we never repeat any snack two months in a row, although we may include different flavors of something we think is really special. And every now and then we bring back our favorite snacks when there's popular demand.
 
 
 
 
 
Lets dig in!
 
 
 
Kalenola- Maple Cranberry, I have never herd of kalenola before. I have tried Kale chips and those are good so I was very excited to try this. I tried it on some vanilla yogurt and it was very good it had the kale taste but was sweet because of the cranberry and maple flavor.
 
Veggie Chips- I love veggie chips! So these were opened right away! Yum! I love them!
 
 
 
 
Sprouties Sunflower seeds- Yum these tasted just like the should! Delicious sunflower seeds.
 
Seed and Fruit mix- this was very good, it had sunflower seeds, apples, pumpkin seeds, cranberries, and chocolate chips.
 
Almonds- Yum! oven roasted almonds are always good!
 
 
 
 
 
 
Organic Mashups Squeezable Fruit-  This tasted like apple sauce, it is made from organic fruit purees. Very good.
 
Noir- this is an organic chocolate bar, I like it tastes similar to other chocolates just more healthy tasting, Perfect to satisfy a chocolate craving.
 
 
 
 
Veggie Go's- Mountain Berry spinach, Can I just say yum! I love this, it was probably my favorite item in this box. It is a chewy fruit strip and tastes so good!
 
Rawma Bar- This is an energy bar flavored apple delicious. I didn't try it yet but I am excited to taste this. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Hail Merry- These are macaroons, they are also super yummy. I enjoyed them with a cup of tea, so good they have a very intense coconut flavor, so if you are not a coconut fan I would not recommend these to you.
 
 
 
 
Snapz- Tomato and Pineapple, These were good, the only thing in them is the fruit itself just dried. I put the tomato on my turkey sandwich, it added such a fresh flavor that made my sandwich the perfect one. I have yet to try the pineapple but I have high hopes.
 
 Hey! I just signed up for http://mbsy.co/healthy-surprise/1226453">Healthy Surprise. They make these boxes of healthy snack food which look amazing! I know you care about your health - and I think this is right up your alley.Cheers!Tabitha

Skinny Cow Divine Filled Chocolates ($3.99)- I have bought these a few times before, and I’m sure I’ll buy them again.  I am a huge fan of Skinny Cow, particularly their ice cream.  These are good, and only 130 calories for 3.  I prefer the caramel ones, but I like the peanut butter ones as well, and they will not last long in my house!

Graze Niblebox Review!




I got my first Graze box today!! Graze offers over 90 different snacks, so you will most likely never get bored with them. Although you don’t get to pick the exact snacks you receive in your box, Graze does have a rating system where you rate which snacks you like, and then you receive the snacks you like more frequently.

This month I received apple & cinnamon flapjack, Dark rookie road, Bonnie Wee Oatbakes, and Mississippi BBQ pistachios. Yum! Let the tasting begin!!


Graze Box December 2013 (3)

The description for these is: rustic rolled oat flapjack with apple and cinnamon.. They taste like a freshly baked rolled oat cookie. I am not sure how Graze manages to make them taste so fresh.





Dark Rocky Road: Belgian dark chocolate buttons, cranberries and pecans. This was a very sweet dessert snack. Yay for vegan chocolate! it is a very tasty treat! I love it!



Mississippi BBQ Pistachios (Smoked BBQ Pistachios): I love Pistachios so I was very excited to try these! They were very good.



Bonnie Wee Oatbakes- Wholegrain oatbakes with caramelized onion marmalade. This is delicious! You do need to like onions though. The oatbakes by themselves are tasty. These are packed with flavor and hope to receive them again soon.

Green & Black’s Chocolate – I love the cute little pouch that these chocolates came in. I’m a sucker for little “extras” like that. Included were 2 miniature dark chocolate bars made with organic ingredients.

Sweet Potato Popchips - I keep getting Popchips in boxes, but I’ve yet to try ‘em. These ones are made with real sweet potatoes. Mmm.

Laura Secord’s Maple Fudge – A Canadian treat made with pure maple syrup. My mom’s a huge fan of anything maple, so this will be going to her. (You’re welcome momma.)

Dancing Deer Baking Co. Cookies – Shortbread cookies made with rosemary and pink sea salt, This sound very interesting!

Bulu Box Review!





So Bulu Box was nice enough to send me a box to review for you! All opinions are my own. I was very excited to try this box, I have heard so many great things about it. above is the picture as soon as I got back to my apartment!



First opening!


Opening the Bulu box I immediately saw information on all the products within! There’s even a My sample Journal Card that lists everything included and asks how you felt before and after. On the other side of the card is the price to buy the item and how much of it you get.

So here is my opinion about the products in the box:




The shake was very good! I had it after class before work is was a perfect little treat! I also tried the watermelon dietary supplement I'm not a huge fan of watermelon flavored products so it wasn't my favorite but my roommate thought it was tasty.




bulu box weight loss review

I heard of Body 360 before on television, so it will be interesting to see if the claims are true!
I tried the Natural Vitality drink before and while I didn’t necessarily feel more calm, it was delicious! These came just in time due to finals being next week!!




This ice was so good it had electrolytes and tasted so good! I had it before my run it was so good I will be buying these in the future!

Not pictured is a $25 gift card to buy a full priced bag at livewell360.com

What can you expect if you sign up for Bulu Box?
This box provides a well-rounded sampling of all health and nutrition products. Each box contains 4 to 5 premium samples plus lifestyle extras like gym gift cards or DVDs from time to time. Every box is a feel good discovery.


Overall: I was very happy to try the new snacks and products.
I like that it is $10 a month.  I like that you can choose month to month subscriptions so you can cancel at anytime and resume at any time.  If you like something you sample you can find it on their website to buy for yourself. Although I did find that most things were cheaper on Amazon.com.
I also like that shipping is always free! I also like that they offer you to earn an easy 50 points ($5) or more each month by reviewing, sharing and completing short surveys. Use your Reward Points to purchase full-size version of the products that work best for you!
