Each box comes with 4 healthy portioned snacks, that is picked by the Graze team based on your preferences when you subscribe, you also get a little info card that tells you whats in each of your snack pots.



First up we have SWEET MUSTARD PRETZEL, this snack pot contains sour cream and onion cashews, pretzel bites and mustard breadsticks.
The Benefits - Cashews are packed with vitamins and minerals including Vitamin E and Selenium, which both help keep skin, hair and nails looking healthy. This snack is also a source of fibre, instead of frying the breadsticks and pretzels, they are baked in small batches.
- Source of fibre
- Contains vitamins & minerals
- 129 calories per portion
-Suitable for vegetarians
I thought this snack pot smelt nice, I thought the breadsticks were okay once the initial taste of the mustard was gone, I don't like mustard, no matter how many times I give it a try. The pretzels really reminded me of the savoury nibbles that we used to have at Christmas when I was younger, but sadly they're not for me. I absolutely loved the cashews and the sour cream and onion flavour, definitely my favourite from this snack pot.
Sadly personally for me the cons outweigh the pros, so I won't be keeping this in my like list on my GRAZE account.


Next we have OUR VERSION OF COFFEE WALNUT CAKE, this snack pot contains walnuts, Chilean flame raisins and milk chocolate coffee beans.
The Benefits - Walnuts are a source of omega-3, which helps keep your cholesterol levels in check, they're also a source of manganese, which helps maintain healthy bones and protects cells from oxidative stress
- High in omega-3
- Source of manganese
- Contains real coffee beans

- Suitable for vegetarians
I love that this snack pot initially smells like fresh coffee, sadly though no matter how many times I try them, walnuts are just not for me, there's something about the aftertaste that I just don't like. I love the Chilean flame raisins, they are really juicy. I really loved the chocolate coffee beans and I'd happily eat a snack pot of just them.


Next we have BANANA CINNAMON FRUIT FUSIONS, this snack pot contains chewy banana coins, raisins, caramelised honey and cinnamon almonds and pecan nuts.
he Benefits - The pecan nuts and almonds make this snack pot a source of energy-releasing manganese and copper, helping to reduce fatigue. This snack pot is also high in dietary fibre, making it perfect for breakfast or a mid-afternoon snack.
- Source of manganese
- Source of copper
- High in fibre

- Suitable for vegetarians
This snack pot was originally named Cinnamon Banana Energiser and for me this time round the smell initially opening the snack pot wasn't appealing. I wasn't a fan of the banana coins, I didn't like either the taste or the texture. I really like the raisins, they were really nice and juicy. I absolutely loved the almonds, the honey and cinnamon work really well together and they are my favourite from this snack pot.


Lastly we have COCOA VANILLA PROTEIN FLAPJACK, this snack pot contains a cocoa vanilla flapjack.
The Benefits - All GRAZE's flapjacks are baked in small batches, meaning the whole rolled oats keep all their natural goodness, making their flapjacks a source of fibre and manganese, which are nutrients that support the immune system and protects cells from oxidative stress. The mixed seeds, cocoa powder and cacao nibs that are added to the mixture, mean these flapjacks are also a source of essential minerals. Also blended together is soy protein, tapioca starch and a pinch of salt, then puffed up like rice crispies and added to their flapjack mix.
- Source of fibre
- Source of protein
- Whole rolled oats
- Suitable for vegans
- Suitable for vegetarians
This flapjack smells divine and I was really excited to try it and had high hopes that I would enjoy this. Sadly for me it seemed a little dry, while I liked the crunchiness, but I thought the cocoa overpowers the vanilla, meaning that this flapjack failed to blow me away. I will though be happy to try this flapjack out again, I like to at least try something 3 times before I decide whether it's for me or not.

It's time to get stuck into another GRAZE box.


Each box comes with 4 healthy portioned snacks, that is picked by the Graze team based on your preferences when you subscribe, you also get a little info card that tells you whats in each of your snack pots.



First up we have SMOKEHOUSE BBQ CRUNCH, this snack pot contains BBQ flavoured peas, chilli corn and corn chips.
The Benefits - The peas and corn are roasted and not fried, making them naturally lighter version of BBQ crisps, it's less than 150 calories and a source of fibre.
- High in fibre
- Less than 150 calories
- Alternative to BBQ crisps
- Suitable for vegans
For me the corn chips seemed a little bland and while I like BBQ flavours, even though I thought the BBQ flavoured peas tasted okay, I wasn't really all that into them, which was a shame. 
Also even though the chilli corn seemed a little bland to me, they were also really nice and were my favourite from this snack pot.


Next we have COCO PARADISE, this snack pot contains Belgian milk chocolate drops, cranberries and coconut flakes.
The Benefits - This snack pot is high in fibre and a delicious source of copper, which is needed for energy metabolism and supports the immune system and protects cells from oxidative stress.
- High in fibre
- Source of copper 
- Made with real Belgian chocolate
- Suitable for vegetarians
This is one of my favourite snack pots from GRAZE, I love the cranberries, they are sweet and tart which I think is perfect for this snack pot. 
I love the coconut flakes, I could easily snack on them on their own on a daily basis. 
Finally who doesn't love milk chocolate, no matter it's form. The chocolate drops tasted gorgeous and smooth flavour, they also worked perfectly with the coconut flakes.


Next up we have THE GRAZE BROWNIE, this snack pot contains a beetroot brownie.
The Benefits - this brownie is made without butter and wheat flour and replaced with ground almonds and beetroot, making the brownie rich and moist. Rapeseed oil is also used which only contains 7% saturated fat, with butter having 51%m the rapeseed oil is also a good source of omega 3 and omega 6.
- Only 110 calories
- Source of fibre
- Contains no butter or wheat flour
- Suitable for vegetarians
I'm a fan of both chocolate and beetroot, however this brownie combination was not for me. Don't get me wrong the brownie was nice but I wasn't a fan of the flavour and it left me feeling rather parched and in need of a glass of milk.



Lastly we have a CINNAMON BANANA ENERGISER, this snack pot contains chewy banana coins, raisins, caramelised honey and cinnamon almonds and pecan nuts.
The Benefits - The pecan nuts and almonds make this snack pot a source of energy-releasing manganese and copper, helping to reduce fatigue. This snack pot is also high in dietary fibre, making it perfect for breakfast or a mid-afternoon snack.
- Source of manganese
- Source of copper
- High in fibre

- Suitable for vegetarians
Every time I try this snack pot, I'm always surprised as I didn't think I will like the banana coins but they were really nice and chewy, for me they still tasted like I was tucking into a fresh banana. The pecan nuts are a no for me, there is just something about the taste that I just don't like. I liked the raisins, they had a sweetness to them that I liked.
I absolutely love the caramelised honey and cinnamon almonds, I'd snack on these all day, everyday if I could, they're my favourite  from this snack pot.

Now it's time to get into the business side of the Graze box, each box comes with 4 snack pots with snacks had selected just for you from your preferences you give the Graze team from over 100 choices.

Hello

It's time for another Graze Box post.



Each box comes with 4 healthy portioned snacks, that is picked by the Graze team based on your preferences when you subscribe, you also get a little info card that tells you whats in each of your snack pots.

First up we have MEXICAN STYLE SMOKED CHEESE, this snack pot contains hickory smoked almonds, chilli corn, black beans and Gouda puffs.
The Benefits - This snack pot is a source of fibre and protein, which is needed for the maintenance of muscles. It's also perfectly portioned to be less than 150 calories per snack pot.
- Source of fibre
- High in protein
- Less an 150 calories
- Suitable for vegetarians

I thought this snack pot smelt pretty nice, I thought the almonds were nice but they weren't my favourite thing from this snack pot and I really loved the chilli corn, they had to be my favourite. The black beans are not for me, I really don't like them and they seemed a little bland for me, while I thought the Gouda puffs were okay, I felt that the cheese flavour was a little too strong for me.


Next up we have TOFFEE APPLE, this snack pot contains toffee sauce and apple wedges.
The Benefits - The wedges of soft dried apple are naturally sweet, no refined sugars or artificial sweeteners needed. 
- One of your 5 a day
- Less than 100 calories
- Made with real fruit
- Suitable for Vegetarians
I could smell the apple wedges as soon as I opened the snack pot, I really liked the apple wedges as they gave off a sweet taste which worked really well with the toffee sauce. The toffee sauce was also really nice, I enjoy getting this is my GRAZE boxes.


Next we have a CINNAMON BANANA ENERGISER, this snack pot contains chewy banana coins, raisins, caramelised honey and cinnamon almonds and pecan nuts.
The Benefits - The pecan nuts and almonds make this snack pot a source of energy-releasing manganese and copper, helping to reduce fatigue. This snack pot is also high in dietary fibre, making it perfect for breakfast or a mid-afternoon snack.
- Source of manganese
- Source of copper
- High in fibre
- Suitable for vegetarians
While this snack pot doesn't necessarily look appetising, it's definitely better than it looks. I didn't really like the banana coins, but I thought the pecan nuts were okay, and the same with the raisins, though I thought the raisins taste so much better mixed with the honey and cinnamon flavouring. I loved the almonds, they're my favourite from this snack pot, the honey and cinnamon flavour was delicious.


Lastly we have TWIST OF BLACK PEPPER POPCORN, this snack pot contains salt and pepper popcorn.
The Benefits - Each portion is less than 150 calories, which is far lighter than your standard cinema popcorn, it's high in fibre  and a source of vitamin E, which is a nutrient that helps protect cells from oxidative stress.
- High in fibre
- Source of vitamin E
- Less than 150 calories
- Suitable for vegans
I really love this popcorn, it has the perfect combination of salt and pepper, giving it a little heat and a kick, I love the flavour. I think the perfect bowl of popcorn would be a mixture of salty, sweet, toffee and a twist of black pepper.

Now it's time to get into the business side of the Graze box, each box comes with 4 snack pots with snacks had selected just for you from your preferences you give the Graze team from over 100 choices. Each box is £3.99, with your 1st box being half price on subscription, You can choose between having your personalised box delivered through your letterbox every week or fortnightly with also the choice of being able to skip a box or take a holiday if you're away when you box is due.

It's time for another Graze unboxing.



Each box comes with 4 healthy portioned snacks, that is picked by the Graze team based on your preferences when you subscribe, you also get a little info card that tells you whats in each of your snack pots.


First up we have THE CHEESE BOARD, this snack pot contains cheddar cheese bruschetta, cheese flavoured almonds, cheese flavoured cashews and Gouda puffs.
The Benefits - This snack pit uses nuts to give you a source of protein for healthy muscles and bones.
- Source of protein
- Source of fibre
- Suitable for vegetarians
- Under 150 calories per serving

I really love the smell that comes from this snack pot, the bruschetta is gorgeous, with the almonds and cashews really tasting nice. I love the Gouda flavoured puffs, they crumble and melt on the tongue. All the flavours and textures work really well together and I loved this snack pot just as much as the first time I tried it, even more so this time.


Next we have BANANA CAKE WITH AN AFTERNOON INFUSION, this snack pot contains banana cake and an afternoon infusion teabag.
The Benefits - The banana bread is made without butter and instead it's replaced with rapeseed oil, which is only 7% saturated fat and is a good source of omega 3 and omega 6.
- Only 63 calories
- Suitable for vegetarians
- Comes with a graze teabag 
  
 I'm not usually a fan of things like banana bread or carrot cake but I really like this banana bread, it's really nice, soft and moist. The flavours really work together, making this a perfect snack to just stop what you're doing and have a 15 minute tea break. I still enjoy getting this in my snack pot.


Next up we have CINNAMON BANANA ENERGISER, this snack pot contains chewy banana coins, raisins, caramelised honey and cinnamon almonds and pecan nuts.
The Benefits - The pecan nuts and almonds make this snack pot a source of energy-releasing manganese and copper, helping to reduce fatigue. This snack pot is also high in dietary fibre, making it perfect for breakfast or a mid-afternoon snack.
- Source of manganese
- Source of copper
- High in fibre
- Suitable for vegetarians

This snack pot smells absolutely gorgeous, I thought that the raisins tasted really nice, as well as the pecan nuts. I thought that the banana coins were OK but I wasn't really a fan of them, but would happily try them again. The almonds on the other hand were gorgeous and very moreish. I thought this was a nice little snack pot to boost your energy and it's a definite keeper for future Graze boxes.


Lastly we have TWIST OF BLACK PEPPER POPCORN, this snack pot contains salt and pepper popcorn.
The Benefits - Each portion is less than 150 calories, which is far lighter than your standard cinema popcorn, it's high in fibre  and a source of vitamin E, which is a nutrient that helps protect cells from oxidative stress.
- High in fibre
- Source of vitamin E
- Less than 150 calories
- Suitable for vegans

I really like this popcorn and I am happy to continue to receive this popcorn, the flavour is a good mixture of salt and pepper. Normally when I buy any sort of popcorn, I always go for a toffee popcorn or a sweet popcorn, but I think this is a good change up and it is very flavoursome.

Now it's time to get into the business side of the Graze box, each box comes with 4 snack pots with snacks had selected just for you from your preferences you give the Graze team from over 100 choices. Each box is £3.99, with your 1st box being half price on subscription, You can choose between having your personalised box delivered through your letterbox every week or fortnightly with also the choice of being able to skip a box or take a holiday if you're away when you box is due.
