They should stop including the three coupons with the original code that is only good for one person and the flyer in their boxes.. that would help. I was curious why they would put that in the box when it is useless and a waste of paper.

I got my nibblebox in the mail just now, and the first thing I went for was the Fruity Mango Chutney. It's got that blend of sweetness with subtle heat behind it that just appeals to my tastes so perfectly. That's definitely going in the "Love" column for next time. Getting ready to dig into the Chilli & Lime Pistachios next.

Is there anyway I could join the list? I've been sharing the snacks with my boyfriend, and he's really been digging the boxes. My email address is rmerrill160 at g mail.com.

The code I sent has not yet been redeemed after 5 days, so I have passed it on to Kazmeyer, who appears to be next on the list. I hope that's right! My first box hasn't arrived yet, but it will be banoffee pie, garden of England, tom yum yum, and honeycomb crunch. I'm a bit disappointed I didn't get any flapjacks or dippers, but these all sound pretty good, so I'm happy with it. notmandatory fucked around with this message at 00:50 on Mar 16, 2013 |

FatalTheGod should also have an invite code to kick back in, which will come in handy since there's a lot of people jumping on board. kazmeyer fucked around with this message at 06:12 on Mar 16, 2013 |

I was curious why they would put that in the box when it is useless and a waste of paper. Chances are, they had it all designed up for three coupons. They had them printed up (offset), and perforated, and then all they do when someone signs up is send the preprinted sheet through an inkjet to put just the code on. It would be super expensive to pitch all the three-coupon perforated items they have and redesign / reprint / reperforate a new version with just one tear-off, so they're probably using those up before even thinking about doing a redesign / reprint with fewer tear-offs.

My second box didn't arrive last week but thankfully showed up today. Marvelous Macaroon - A nice little dessert-y trail mix, everything altogether tasting very much like a macaroon. I liked this far better than the Cookies & Cream, as the almonds just work better than sunflower seeds in this sort of mix. Cheddar Gorge - As far as the savory mixes go, I liked this better than El Picante. A good balance between the flavors, and less cheesy than the name would indicate. The herb crackers were the best part of the whole mix, and I'm looking forward to receiving any of the other mixes with them. Summer Berry Compote - Delicious sweet, crumbly shortbread that pairs beautifully with the slightly tart jam. Not sure why I haven't been dipping shortbread in jam before now—it seems glaringly obvious. Probably my favorite of anything I've gotten so far, but also the easiest to just prepare myself. Pure Vitality - Just apricots, Inca berries, and pumpkin seeds. I hadn't had Inca berries before, and they taste... like apricots. So this is pretty one-dimensional, but not bad. Also for whatever reason the portion size seemed to be slightly more generous with this one than most. My rankings of what I've had so far: 1. Summer Berry Compote (love) 2. Apple and Cinnamon Flapjack (love) 3. Garden of England (like) 4. Marvelous Macaroon (like) 5. Cheddar Gorge (try) 6. El Picante (try) 7. Pure Vitality (try) 8. Cookies & Cream (trash)

Oh hey, I got my stray box in: Fruit and seed flapjacks: It reminds me of basic 4 cereal without the ridiculous levels of sweet. Yummy. Herby Bread Basket: Nice mild savory flavors. Worth it. Cookies and Cream: I know it's gotten a lot of negative thoughts but I liked it. The sesame seeds toned down the white chocolate a lot for me. Garden of England: I can't remember having currants before. I wish there were more strawberries, but it's a solid blend.

Finally got my second week's graze box, so it looks like my first may be a lost cause. However, I did get a credit for my ext one for free, so chalk one up for their customer service! Reviews to come once I've had a few days to try them all; I want to spread them out.

I got my second box at the end of last week, and finally finished trying everything. Here are my thoughts: Summer Berry Flapjack: It tastes like a soft oat cookie bar. Seems kind of dessert-y, but I can't help but love it. I went back and rated all of the flapjacks as "love" hoping they are all just as delicious. Bonnie Wee Oatbakes: I liked the oatbakes, but I was not into the onion jam at all, so I ended up just eating the oatbakes by themselves. I kept it at "try". Love Mix: This seemed like it would be tasty (apricots, cherries, and goji berries), but it was nauseating. Too much sweetness combined with the weird taste of the goji berries...it just did not work well together. I rated as "trash". Bounty Hunter: I thought this would be boring (milk chocolate, coconut flakes, and cranberries), but I ended up liking it for what it was. The ingredients tasted great together, so I rated it "like".

Ahh the perils of shipping.. and overseas to make matters worse. poo poo just from looking at the condition of some of the packages I get delivered via USPS I am thoroughly amazed any of our boxes make it to us. Our Graze boxes are salmon swimming up a stream with bears everywhere waiting to shred them to pieces. If it was not so off-topic I would post some pics of the condition of boxes delivered from the postal service and people would be scared. I had a motherboard arrive looking like it fell off the shipping container and thrown off the cargo door of the plane and onto the tarmac, driven over.. twice then stuffed into a crevice of the delivery truck where it had no business fitting and finally made it to my door after a thrilling game of rugby at the local post office.

Finally tried my first box! Summer Berry Flapjacks: My absolute favorite of the bunch; they're deliciously soft, and the berries are packed with flavor. (Love) Honeycomb Crunch: These were pretty good when eaten together; the tiny golden raisins didn't do much for me, but the actual chocolate honeycomb toffee bits were good, as were the almonds. (Like) Bonnie Wee Oatcakes: The onion marmalade and oatcakes are okay on their own, but not together - the two flavors just don't match up well for me. (Trash - I didn't hate it, but don't care if I never get it again) Toffee Apple: This was pretty good; I'm a big caramel fan, so the dip was delicious. I think I was expecting harder/crunchier dried apples, though, so those left me a bit lukewarm. (Like)

Having kind of a lovely day, but hey! My third Graze box arrived on time. I'll just have a quick sample of each... Very Nori-sh: Thought these tasted kind of funky on the first bite, but that passed. Has a pleasant delayed spiciness, like a good curry. I probably won't get this again, but it was decent. Jaffa Cake: I like Jaffa Cakes, and I really like the orange-infused raisins, but I'm not too happy with the mix as a whole for some reason. It would be better with cookie bits instead of hazelnuts, and smaller chocolate pieces. Eton Mess: One of my favorites so far—I'd buy this by the bagful if I could. The mini-meringues go really well with the tart berries. Smoky Gazpacho Dip: Okay, so much for little samples. I inhaled this, and used the very nori-sh crackers to finish off the dip. Easily my favorite savory snack so far, and maybe my favorite altogether. The dip was sweeter than I expected, but this worked in its favor.

I've had two Graze boxes now and I've loved both. I'm on the Boostbox plan and it's definitely broken me out of my terrible work diet. Here's the run-down of what I've tried so far: Super Berry Detox These looked so delicious that I decided to eat them as a little pre-gym boost the day they arrived instead of saving them for work. They were pretty good, nothing special but nice enough and I'd definitely eat them again. Love. Fiery Seeds These were delicious, and because they're so small you get a lot of them in that little box and they lasted me a whole work day of eating a pinch of seeds every time I felt like a snack or a sugary tea. Love. Yaki Soba This was basically healthy Bombay Mix, which I normally love, but it didn't really have enough taste or heat to catch my interest. Textures were nice though. I'd give it another chance, but I'm not impressed. Try. Black Pepper Pistachios These had a lovely, long-lasting warm flavour and having to take the time to shell the individual nuts meant I had a couple of seconds to think while I snacked, which was nicely therapeutic on a long work day. Love. Born in the USA The cranberries were nice, but the pecans and almonds were a little flavourless and their size meant there wasn't enough to keep you really 'grazing'. Usually I love almonds, though, so I didn't want to bin them. Try. Super Fruity Tangtastic Oh my god, this was amazing. All three fruits were delicious but the green mango (which I'd never tried before) was absolutely out of this world. I didn't know you could get this sort of 'brightness' of flavour from dried fruit. Love. Bonnie Wee Oatcakes I don't get the hate for these things on here, I thought the combination was delicious. The oatcakes were a little lacking in flavour on their own but their texture was perfect as a base for the delicious red onion marmalade. Love. Keen Bean I really didn't like this. None of it tasted very nice, the texture of the skins on the nuts and edemame beans was horrible, the broad beans were tasteless, and I'm pretty sure the whole mix gave me heartburn. Bin.

black pepper pistachios Good, fresh pistachios and the black pepper is nice and mildly spicy with good aromatics. Leaving at try. sticky chocolate pudding It's milk chocolate and raisins. There's nothing more to say. Leaving at like. dark rocky road The dark chocolate is solid, I think it's melting chocolate used by chefs, which mixes well with the cranberries. Pecans are too stark and bland in this mix, it's not particularly pleasant even when eaten as a whole. Moved from like to trash. summer berry compote The fairly buttery, without much sweetness and a little mealy which cuts down on the smoothness that shortbread should have. I find it a little difficult to see how they have such big chunks of grain in the bread considering the ingredients claim only flour. Not good by itself, but the compote has enough sweetness to make up for it and has moderate berry flavor. Leaving at like. My experience with the pecans led me to also trash everything else with them in it. I hope their almonds are better. baquerd fucked around with this message at 00:28 on Mar 22, 2013 |

It's kind of funny—the ratings I give stuff on Graze aren't really reflective of how much I actually like anything. I haven't rated anything "love" yet because I don't want to compromise the variety. I might start using it to ensure I get stuff I really want to try but haven't gotten yet. I have it set to send me more "likes" than "tries," so every week I'm getting three things I'm reasonably sure I'll like, and one I'm not sure about. I preemptively marked everything I'd have no trouble finding at the grocery store as "trash," but now that I know their dried fruit is really high-quality stuff, I've upgraded most of those. Edit: I haven't tried their pecans yet, but having enjoyed Marvelous Macaroon is the only thing preventing me from trashing everything with chocolate. Not digging these big hard discs of middling-quality chocolate. Ghost Cow Goes Boo posted:Keen Bean Do they have a different selection depending on where you're located?

Yeah the UK site has all sorts of things we don't have like popcorn, olives, and high tea. Some of them have shorter expiration dates and with the shipping issues to the US you would be more likely to get something that had passed the consume by date. Others maybe they don't think would do as well is the US?
