Instagram Grazing


I haven't really been posting that much; I've been really sick, so I haven't been in the blogging zone lately. It feels like I've been sick for weeks. I have been quite the sick busy bee, though. I also have a few posts up my sleeve, so those are coming. This one is one that's long overdue, though. It's yummy, too.

Anyways, I'm quite the instagram gal. I just love scrolling through my feed and seeing all of the pretty pictures people post. My instagram, itself, isn't exactly active at the moment, but it's an app I check over and over, throughout the day. I'm not sure what it is about it, but it's relaxing and gets me inspired. It's like a library of magazines stuffed in a little app that fit my every mood. Yes.


So, being the big Hills girl that I am. Yes, you can't lie and say you don't watch those reruns of The Hills every summer... Lauren Conrad Squad all the way. Like I said, though, I'm a Hills girl. I have to follow the two originals, LC and Lo. Well Lo had this box in a post. Of course it caught my attention. I mean two of my favorite things were combined in this post... snacks and subscription boxes. Lets be honest, we all have at least one subscription box or are thinking of getting one. I have a few, and I'm always looking for more. I just love trying new things and subscription boxes are a great way of experimenting with products.

If you didn't click on that link, by the way, let me explain what subscription box she posted about.

The snack box is from graze.com

Lo posted about the box with a coupon code to try a sample size of the box, so I went ahead and used it. I figured it wouldn't hurt to try something for free.

I wasn't mistaken. This has easily become one of my favorite subscription services. I will admit I had my reservations about a box that would deliver snacks to my door, though. I just didn't know how to feel about it, especially since I had no clue what to expect.

Healthy snack box was all that I heard in my head, and the Doritos lover inside me was doubtful. If anything, I expected to not love it.

Now, I was mistaken about that. I love this subscription box; it's great. I'm still exploring their page, though, so I can't say I know everything about this service.

I do, however, know that Graze's snacks are better than anything I've bought at the store.

They also have different sizes for different prices. If you opt to stick to 4 snacks, it's $6.99 per box. There's also an 8 snack box that is priced at $11.99 per box. Graze even has a sharing snacks deal, which I'll probably be indulging in after the end of my semester. College can get stressful, okay? I just happen to destress with snacks.

The best thing about this box, though, is that you can skip boxes if you're on vacation or just don't want a box. You're not tied down by a subscription. You basically get to decide how often you want the box, as well as what you want in it. Now, you don't get to pick exactly what you put in it, but you get to rate a list of snacks, and a box is personalized based on your taste. If you're vegan, there's a box for you. If you have food allergies, there's a box for you. If you love it all, there's a box for you. If you're looking for protein, there's a box for you. If you're watching your calorie intake, there's a box for you. Moral of the box is that there's a box for everyone, and it will NOT be mediocre.

Anyways, I actually went ahead and took a few pictures of the first box I received, which was the free four snack box. I've only received one after the first free box, but I may have devoured its contents before taking pictures. (SORRY!) I was overly excited. That's how good this box is.

All four snacks were delicious, and I love that there was variety within the box. I typically don't like raisins, but the blondie bar was such a highlight. Oh, and I'm still dreaming about the roasted chili honey peanuts and almonds. Can I have a trailer of those? The Italian herb snack was so good, too. I won't lie, I saw green and felt a bit intimidated. It was the third snack I tried, and I was scared it was going to be anything less than delicious, but it kept the streak going. Don't get me started on the Vitamin C Crush, either... it had MANGO. I died like a happy baby lion.

Now, as promised...






You see that bright light? It's me dying when I saw it contained mango!

Anyways, I'd definitely give this box a chonce! It's completely worth it.
