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 NOT TOO SPICY VEGGIE PROTEIN, this snack pot contains black beans, wild rice sticks, chilli corn and carrot crisps.
The benefits - this snack pot is high in fibre and is only 140 calories per punnet, the carrot crisps are made with innovative microwave vacuum technology, dehydrating fresh carrots slices to capture their natural sweetness, with no added sugar, salt or oil. It's also a source of plant protein which helps your body build muscle.
- High in fibre
- Source of protein
- Under 150 calories
- Suitable for vegans and vegetarians
I seem to go back and forth with this snack pot, I actually liked the black beans this time round, I wasn't really enjoying the wild rice sticks, the didn't seem to have much flavour to them, so seemed a little bland. I really liked the carrot crisps, they added a sweetness to the spice from the chilli corn, which I absolutely loved. Everything together did work really well and the flavours really complimented each other.


Next up we have PROTEIN PEANUT BUTTER DIPPER WITH BAKED HEMP STICKS, this snack pot contains 100% pure peanut butter and hemp dippers.
The Benefits - The peanut butter is made from 100% peanuts, which is a good source of natural protein and dietary fibre and contain their own natural oils and flavours. Hemp seeds are also used for the dippers, making it a healthy tasty snack.
- Source of protein
- High in fibre
- Less than 150 calories
- No added sugar
- Suitable for Vegans
I think the dippers and peanut butter work really well together. I think the dippers are really nice on their own, especially as a savoury snack. I'm a big lover of peanut butter, so I would have been surprised if I had not been a fan of the peanut butter dip, there is just the right amount of dip for the dippers, as well as just the right amount that your not finishing the snack pot with a dry mouth.


Next up we have CINNAMON APPLE PIE, this snack pot contains yogurt coated raisins, blanched almonds and cinnamon apple pie pieces.
The Benefits - This snack pot is made with real Californian almonds and real fruit, has a wholesome source of manganese and vitamin E, which are essential minerals that help support the immune system and protect cells from oxidative stress.
- Made with real fruit
- Source of vitamin E
- Source of fibre
- Source of manganese
This snack pot smells absolutely gorgeous. I thought the almonds tasted nice, I loved the yogurt coated raisins, they have really nice and creamy taste and texture. The cinnamon apple pieces are absolutely gorgeous, they made my mouth water. All the flavours together work amazingly, it's a very moreish and enjoyable snack pot.

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

- Suitable for vegans

I always enjoy this popcorn from GRAZE, but this time round I never got the chance to enjoy the popcorn as my microwave has broken and right now I'm in no rush to buy another as I barely use a microwave when I am cooking.

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.

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.

It's time to review my 6th 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 RHUBARB & PEAR COMPOTE, this snack pot contains rhubarb slices, pear and cranberries.
The Benefits - This snack pot ticks off one of your five a day and is better than heading to the sweet jar to snack on something sweet and chewy and is made with real fruit.
- High in fibre
- Less than 150 calories
- Made with real fruit
- Suitable for vegans
The cranberries are really nice as well as the rhubarb, the rhubarb was a little tough but it was enjoyable all the same. I wasn't a fan of the texture of the pear but the taste wasn't impacted on because of the texture, it did still taste nice. I would gladly snack on this snack pot instead of some sweets.



Next up we have CHOCOLATE PRETZEL DIPPERS, this snack pot contains cocoa hazelnut dip and lightly salted pretzel sticks.
The Benefits - The pretzel sticks are baked and then lightly salted and the cocoa hazelnut dip is made with real hazelnuts and blended with cocoa and milk.
- Source of fibre
- Less than 150 calories
- Made with real hazelnuts
- Suitable for Vegetarians
The pretzel sticks are really nice just as a snack on it's own, the dip tasted a little different to the chocolate dips that I'm used to but it did taste really nice. The pretzel sticks and hazelnut dip work really well together and are really nice. What I love about this snack pot is that you get a mixture of a sweet and salty taste, for me also there was just the right amount of the chocolate dip.



Next up we have APPLE & CINNAMON FLAPJACK, this snack pot contains apple & cinnamon flapjack.
The Benefits - Their flapjacks are baked in small batches so that the whole rolled oats keep all their natural goodness. This snack is a healthy snack and a source of fibre, vitamin A and manganese, which are nutrients that work together to support the immune system and protects cells from oxidative stress.
- Made with real oats
- Source of fibre
- Source of manganese
- Suitable for vegetarians
This flapjack is really soft, chewy and moist, the flavours really work well together and it's a perfect snack to have along with a cup of tea or coffee. I really do enjoy Graze's flapjacks, I'm still to find a flapjack just as good as theirs.


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

I didn't try this popcorn so I can't give a full review of it but if I remember correctly from my past subscription I did enjoy this popcorn, I think I preferred it to the slightly sweet popcorn.

It's time to review my 3rd Graze box, so shall we get started?



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 SESAME GARLIC CRUNCH, this snack contains oat bran sesame sticks, garlic sesame sticks and multigrain soy rice crackers.
The Benefits - A lighter Asian snack pot, instead of a Asian takeaway snack and made with oat bran making it a source of dietary fibre.
- Source of Fibre
- Less than 150 calories per pot
- Made with Turmeric
- Suitable for vegans 
- A crunchy alternative to Crisps
Personally for me I want to give this snack another try and popped into like to be able to get it again but for me on my first time trying them I thought the sesame sticks were a little bland but I loved the rice crackers, so I'm hoping I would get a different experience trying this snack again.


Next we have PROTEIN PEANUT BUTTER DIPPERS WITH BAKED HEMP STICKS, this snack pot contains 100% pure peanut butter and hemp dippers.
The Benefits - The peanut butter is made from 100% peanuts, which is a good source of natural protein and dietary fibre and contain their own natural oils and flavours. Hemp seeds are also used for the dippers, making it a healthy tasty snack.
- Source of protein
- High in fibre
- Less than 150 calories
- No added sugar
- Suitable for Vegans
I absolutely loved this snack, it's one of my favourites overall from Graze Box, the dippers taste nice on their own as well as when dipping them into the delicious peanut butter, my only criticism for this snack for me is that there isn't enough peanut butter.


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 always enjoy the tea and cake combinations from Graze, I don't think I've been let down yet. The tea was really nice, I brewed it in my little teapot for one. The flavours of the tea went really well with the banana cake which tasted gorgeous.


Lastly we have SLIGHTLY SWEET POPCORN, this snack pot contains popcorn plain and simple.
The Benefits - Each portion of Graze's popcorn is less than 150 calories and is far lighter than the standard cinema popcorn. It's high in fibre and a source of vitamin E, which is a nutrient that protects cells from oxidative stress.
- Less than 150 calories 
High in fibre
- Source of vitamin E
- Suitable for vegans
- Light alternative to crisps

I've not yet opened and had the popcorn but from what I remember from my last subscription is that they were really nice and once you started eating you couldn't stop, it was very moreish. It's very rare that I crave to eat popcorn but thankfully the expiration date is normally a while, which is a bonus.

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.
