Healthy Surprise delivers a monthly box of the "best snacks on the planet"-- and every single item they send out is natural, vegan, gluten free, corn free, and soy free. To my knowledge, they're the only box that sends out only items that can boast all that! Healthy Surprise snacks are full sized items with the occasional single serving bags. There are three price options: $33 (16-20 servings), $66 (32 to 40 servings), and
$99 (50 to 60 servings). The box of snacks is very focused on health
and may contain bars, fruit, nuts and seeds, kale chips, raw chocolate,
and more.
I was very excited to receive the starter snack box (this is the $33 option.) This box was quite heavy and packed full of goodies!
This Alter Eco Dark Almond organic chocolate bar is very large (2.82
oz). Alter Eco is fairly traded and made from cacao beans grown near the
Ecuadorian coast. The cacao beans are then sent to Switzerland where
they are roasted and crafted into fine chocolate bars. Have already
sampled this, and it is absolutely delicious. It is such a rich
chocolate flavor that only a few bites will more than satisfy a sweets
craving!
These two products from Hail Merry are great sweet treats. The raw
vanilla maple almonds (.88 oz) are sweet but still allow the almond
taste to shine through, a great combination!
The
Caramel Sea Salt Macaroons (3.5 oz) are going to be a new addiction.
These little bite sized cookies are light yet dense, so rich and
perfectly flavored. Perfection!
For when that salty snack craving hits, we have two options: Kale Krunch (Southwestern Ranch flavor, 2.2 oz bag), from Alive & Radiant Foods, is "Nature's Green Supersnack." These don't taste like you'd expect kale to taste, but it's hard to describe. It's a good crunchy snack that will help you avoid those greasy chip cravings.
Plentils (Light Sea Salt flavor, .8 oz) are an item I've sampled
previously before.
Plentils are something I'm kind of on the fence
about. I don't hate 'em and I don't love 'em. But they really are pretty
decent, and they give you healthy instead of horrible ingredients.
The three fruit treats included:
Brothers All Natural Fuji Apple Crisps (7 g, 1/3 cup) Love these! They are really wonderful, all that apple flavor you crave and an extra crunchy chip that just makes it a fun snack.
The Crunchies brand freeze dried pineapple (9 g, .33 oz) is another winner. This is billed as "Nature's Ultimate Snack Food" and I think it lives up to that. Chewy, pure pineapple taste, and 100 percent natural. Excellent on the go snack, as are the apple crisps.
Peter Rabbit Organics Banana & Apples fruit snack is an applesauce in a pouch. This is great for a lunchbox or a supplement to your mid-day meal, in my opinion!
There were three bar inclusions in the box:
The Just Fruit Bar from from Gorge Delights is Apple Raspberry flavor (.40 g) and I would liken this to a fruit rollup for grown ups! Totally natural, and a genuine wonderful fruit taste.
The Rawma Bar from GoPal's Health Foods is Wanut Fig flavor (1.8 oz.) This is an energy bar, to be more specific a "high enzyme energy bar." Haven't tried this one yet but as I start each day with an energy bar of some sort, it will be consumed soon.
The Thunderbird Energetics is described as an "artisan energy bar" which had me immediately intrigued. The company is committed to harnessing the most powerful sources of human fuel and delivering them in a great tasting bar. This one is in "Sweet Lemon Rain Dance" and is handmade and Shaman blessed. These kind of touches are the things I LOVE about a box like Healthy Surprise. I'd never learn about a brand like this on my own, and it's fantastic.
Want to try Healthy Surprise yourself? You won't be disappointed. It is one of the most creatively curated boxes I've ever received and if you're into absolutely the best and purest products that are soy free, gluten free, vegan, and delicious -- give it a try! See their site here: Healthy Surprise
