Graze boxes.....

In 2013, I was gifted a membership to the Graze boxes which are 4 individual boxes of snacks that you can choose from on their website. I've had a bunch that I enjoy and are great to throw in my purse on the run. I've also had a few not so great ones and ended pawning them off on my bosses, lol! I just wondered what fellow MFP's thought of these

Love them! (in before everyone posts their invitation code).0

I love mine - it came yesterday in the mail.0
-
I didn't care for them myself. Had a strange aftertaste and several of the ones I was interested in had very similar seasoning.0
-
I like the surprise aspect of them, but the contents can be hit and miss. Except for the Campfire S'mores. I wish that was in allllll the boxes.0
-
I really like graze. It lets me have a large variety of snacks in my desk drawer at work. I've even been able to recreate some of the nut/fruit/seeds combinations from the bulk bins at Whole Foods.0
-
I use them on and off0
-
I sent away and got my free box. But I cancelled before the subscription kicked in.
They were all right...just all right. I thought they were fairly tasty. I just didn't think it was worth $8 for a glorified handful of crackers.0 -
Once the price went up it no longer seemed worth it. It was fun getting new snacks in the mail, but they weren't really big enough for me to considering a snack.

It's $6 actually.
I get it once a month, I've actually switched to the 8 snack box as it's $10. I did 'trash' a bunch of stuff I know I wouldn't like though, but everything else has been delicious, and I'm definitely eating more nuts thanks to them (I could NEVER make them so tasty myself).
They offer big bags now too, but a full bag of their flapjacks is just WAY too dangerous.0 -
Had to Google them as I've never heard of them before. Is it worth the price?0

Actually we're both off - they're advertised on the site as $6.99.
In any case, I can go buy 2 bags of Chex Mix, portion them out into about 4x the number of 150 calorie servings as I get with a Graze box.
But that's just my opinion...0 -
I used to get them and like getting them. But I usually ate them all at once. Weren't a good value, so I stopped buying them. Also tried nature box.0

No, the 4 snack box is $6...
And yeah, value wise, you can get the same amount of calories elsewhere for much less money, it's just not as tasty IMO. So for me it's worth a couple more extra $.0 -

Actually, for me here in the States, the 4 count box is $5, or less if you have referrals. The 8 count is ~$6. I get the once a month for my daughter who eats them that day as a treat, not really a snack like thing for us.

I love them - nicely portion controlled, and good variety of sweet & savory. I believe I am grandfathered in at $6 with shipping, and I think they're worth it. The chili honey almonds and all the flapjacks are my favorites. The banana dippers are yummy too.0

I found a pretty good recipe that tastes pretty close to the graze chili honey almonds: http://damndelicious.net/2013/12/10/sriracha-cinnamon-sugar-candied-nuts/amanda9402 wrote: »I love them - nicely portion controlled, and good variety of sweet & savory.

Well...they must discount off the advertised price then, cause when I open up the home page, I see 4 snack box, $6.99
In any event, we agree that they're high in price compared to other options. But yes, they are more varied and probably more convenient than portioning out a big bag of something else.0 -
It looks like they recently raised the prices for new customers.ceoverturf wrote: »ceoverturf wrote: »I sent away and got my free box. But I cancelled before the subscription kicked in.

I haven't tried them, but I have a monthly tea subscription box that I love.0
-
Oh yikes, yeah, $6.99 would be too much.0
-
I don't eat them because the staff told me on the phone that they couldn't guarantee no cross-contamination of gluten in their non-gluten containing ingredient trays, since everything is made in the same kitchen, and I won't take the risk. My fella loves them though, we only get them very rarely however when I can snag a free code (can't possibly afford to buy them regularly.) His favourite is the 'jaffa cake' one. I was personally very disappointed in their much-hyped brownie, it was dry beyond belief!0

I graze plenty. I don't need food mailed to me.0

I love them. Love them. I think they're ridiculously delicious. Well, the ones I chose the try. I trash some I don't think I'd like outright.
I'm also grandfathered in at the $6 price (sometimes $5 with a referral). They're worth trying and definitely worth it for me. I get that box weekly and I'm about the start getting the big box (I think it's $20 for 4 large bags per month). The price to enjoyment ratio is worthwhile in my book.
It's all about personal preference. I hated NatureBox's snacks and I hear people rave about them all the time. Those tasted strange and stale to me.0 -
I love getting them only because they are convenient to throw in my purse while out with the nanny kiddos or like this am, I made protein pancakes and used one of the berry boxes in the batter. I love cooking with them, I use the berry or dried fruit ones in batter for muffins, pancakes, and waffles. I use the seed/nut and the berry ones to throw in salads or mixed in low cal chicken salad for a wrap. I was just curious to what other people thought of them. I don't think I can get the 4 large bags a month yet....I don't see it. I am however excited about these new broth bowls they are introducing...its like high class ramen, lol!0

I really like them though I ended up cancelling it recently after a year. I ended up just getting backed up on them. Too many were just little bits and they were not working for me to eat at my desk. I wanted more things like the almonds and a few more dipping sticks, and less of the tiny little mix things.
My favorite was those honey chipotle almonds and if they'd just sell me those in bulk I'd be in heaven.0 -

The Graze sharing box has the chili and honey almonds. 5 servings in a bag.

I love Graze. If you use my code JENNYD5FP your first and 5th box are free. I've been getting the boxes for about two years and I can't bring myself to cancel!0
