November MunchPak

MunchPak, who kindly sent me this package to review, is a monthly subscription service and ecommerce website that aims to introduce the best, new, and popular snacks from all over the world to the average Joe. MunchPak officially launches on 11/15/13 and is $19.95/month.

MunchPak
The Box

I didn’t remember that I was getting a MunchPak so I was confused at first when I found it on my porch. But when I remember that it was going to be a box full of snacks I was beyond excited to dig into it.

MunchPak
First Look

First of all, the box is HUGE.  Surely it must be half full of packing materials right?  WRONG.  It’s all snacks!!!  I was impressed already.

MunchPak
The Information Card

I’m not sure that my box had a theme, but it included tons of Sweet, Salty, Sour and Spicy treats.  Since there were so many goodies in this box and I have so many pictures (I should have put multiple items in one picture) I made them on the smaller side.

~Mrs. Kleins Barrel Cured Pickel: I am fascinated by bagged pickles.  How do they stay good?  But they do and that’s all that matters.  I am going to put this in the fridge and give it to WB when he’s super annoyed about his teeth.  If B doesn’t get it first that is.

~Sabritones Chile & Lime Puffed Wheat Snacks: First of all these stink.  Second of all they are delicious.  Like a chile lime flavored funyun.

~Hawaiian Luau BBQ Chips:  I haven’t opened these yet, but I suspect L is going to love them.  I’ll put them in his lunch for a special treat.

~Sour Smog Balls: Sour Smog Balls?  Who thinks of this stuff?  That said my boys love them.  Of course they do.  They had L at the packaging.

MunchPak
Sour Smog Balls

~Riddles Skittles:  I didn’t understand this at first, but I do know.  The riddle is that the flavor of the skittle you get doesn’t match the color.  Frankly I don’t know if L ever realized that the green skittle was supposed to be lime flavored?  LOL.

MunchPak
Riddles Skittles

~Oreos: Who doesn’t like Oreos?  Even WB knows to take them apart and eat the filling first.  You must be born with that knowledge.

MunchPak
Oreos

~Rip Rolls: I’ve never seen such a thing.  L loves it.  And I can’t say I blame him.

MunchPak
Rip Rolls

~Quaker Granola Bar: I ate this after I took all my pictures.  It was hard work.

MunchPak
Quaker Granola Bar

~Planters Roasted Peanuts: Totally a B / L item.  Probably a B item because he’ll eat them long before L ever sees them.

MunchPak
Planters Roasted Peanuts

~Rice Krispie Treat: I might be the only one who likes pre-made Rice Krispie Treats better than homemade.  And I think it’s cute that you can write on the package.

MunchPak
Rice Krispie Treat

~Louck’s Sesame Snaps: I’m not totally sure how to describe these other than a bunch of sesame seeds fused together to form a cracker.  They aren’t bad, just different.

MunchPak
Louck’s Sesame Snaps

~Kar’s Sweet ‘n Salty Mix:  I wanted to open this and pick just the m&m’s out, but I restrained myself.

MunchPak
Kar’s Sweet ‘n Salty Mix

~Sour Punch:  When B got home from work yesterday and saw the MunchPak all over the  counter he kind of stared at it all, asked me what it was and stared at it again.  And then he finally asked if I’d taken my pictures yet.  After I said I did he scooped up a pile of candy to try, including one of these!

MunchPak
Sour Punch

~Laffy Taffy: I don’t like Laffy Taffy, but the boys do.  I don’t think any of us knew that this came in stick though.

Laffy Taffy
Laffy Taffy

~Taffy:  I’d tell you what the flavors of these are and how they taste, but they are one of the things B scooped up.  He seemed to enjoy them though.

MunchPak
Taffy

~Keebler Fudge Stripes Cookies:  I love these!  They remind me of when I was a kid.

MunchPak
Keebler Fudge Stripes Cookies

~Gray’on:  I feel like I have had one of these before, but I don’t know?  It’s a soft crystal like melon flavored candy.  It’s not bad, just different.

MunchPak
Gray’on

~Marimbas: This is a cherry lollipop covered with spicy and sour candy.  I am going to let L try this and watch the face he makes from the unexpected flavors.

MunchPak
Marimbas

~Kudos Dove Bar: A snack for L for next week for sure!

MunchPak
Kudos Dove Bar

~Pecas Mango Lollipops: Another item I am staying away from.  I just can’t get into suckers covered in chile powder.  Who am I kidding.  I’ll try it just in case it tastes different this time.

MunchPak
Pecas Mango Lollipops

~Starbucks GummiBursts: I’ve never seen these before.  They are gummy starburts with a   liquid filling.  I didn’t love them, but after I ate one and declared it not good, I asked for a second.  B and L refused though and ate the bag in about two minutes.

MunchPak
Starbucks GummiBursts

~Fruit by the Foot: L loves these.  Actually B does too.  We’ll see who gets to it first.

MunchPak
Fruit by the Foot

~Meiji: I *think* these are like PopRocks, but I haven’t verified it yet.  I am going to put them in L’s stocking for Christmas!

MunchPak
Meiji

  19. Jill

    My boys would love this too (who am I kidding? So would I!)

  20. Laura

    Just a fyi – the Hawaiian Luau chips are maybe my fave ever – they are sweet and spicy – the spice seems to vary batch to batch – they can be really, really spicy.

  21. Ruby Yoshi

  22. Suzanne

    The kudos Dove bar or the Sour Punch things!

  23. Maureen

  29. K

    I want to try the Pecas Mango Lollipops, just because I’ve never had anything like them before.

  30. Cristina

    I would love to try this! It launches the day after my birthday so I might just have to sign up! I would like to try the starburst gummies. Were they similar to Gushers?

  31. Lauren

    Wow that looks amazing! I really don’t think I can pick one snack. Maybe those Skittles? I think I’d get super thrown off when the color is a different flavor!

  32. shelley

    I want to try Meiji

  33. Juli

    Love me some Oreos!

  34. Ashley C.

    Either the luau bbq chips or the chili mango lollipops — just because Ive heard of so many people that say the combination is AMAZING {and really … I love all things spicy!}

  35. Jamie Miller

    I love fruit by the foot!!

  36. Sher

    What a FUN box!

  37. Mallory

    I love the sour punch straws, for sure. The lollies covered in chili powder are very intriguing though!

  38. stacy willert

    this looks interesting!!

  39. Lauren

    The Kudos bar! I remember those were a big treat when I was a kid!

  40. Jamie

    I would like the Kudos Dove bar.

  41. Jessika

    I love sour straws and the pop candy looks like it would be fun to try. The WHOLE box looks good!!

  42. Natalie

    I think the rip roll looks delicious!

  43. Alexia561

    Most of the snacks look good, but I’d most like to try the Starburst gummies!

  44. Nicole

    The chile covered suckers..sounds terrible but worth a try.

  45. Amy D

    This looks so awesome! I really wanna try the taffy. I can never find any around where I live.

  46. Laura Case

    Mmm im a sucker for candy, I love sour punch licorice

  47. kirstyn

    I love the sourpunch straws!!

  48. Jordan M

    I would love to try the smog balls and the bbq chips (they are my favorite)! I am completely with you on the rice crispy treats as well; nothing beats the manufactured kind. I find that they tend to be softer to chew and taste better, and also a lot less gooey and messy when all is over and done with.

  49. soon p

    Starburst gummibursts

  50. Hilary

    I would love the sour punch straws! love those! I think this is a neat idea for a box but is as kind of disappointed to see that it seems like almost all of the snacks are from the US and are very popularly items that most people would have had or at least seen before. I was expecting more “worldly” snacks since that is what the description of the company is and I feel like if it was more worldly it would help to set it apart from the other snack boxes….

    1. Jennifer

      Hopefully as they grow it will be!

  51. Rachel S.

    Stop, this is AMAZING. I was scrolling through and literally went back up see what box this was!

    I’d love to try those Sabritones. I have a chile/lime problem. I love all spicy red flaming chips.

  52. Shauna

    Roger would be all. over. this box. I’d be interested to try all the different stuff like the chili lollipops and Japanese candy. He’d gobble everything else. I’m definitely going to have to check this one out.

    Cheers,
    Shauna

  53. Ashley C

    THe Riddle Skittles sound fun!

    demureprincess7(at)gmail(dot)com

  54. Christine Fortes

    Since Goodies kids box is gone i’m looking for a new kid snack box… this looks good

  55. Samantha L

    The rip n roll! Reminds me of my childhood 🙂

  56. Rachael

  57. terri s

    oh yeah! I love me some snacky stuff…

  58. nicole

    Those mango lolipops look interesting. I would want to try those!

  59. miranda

    The BBQ chips sound good

  60. Anna E.

    I would love to try the Sesame Snaps.

  61. Sheena W.

    I don’t know why I’m so excited about this box!! I’ve been following MunchPak for a few months and cannot wait for them to launch! Maybe because Goodies Co. closed before i ever received an invite and my Love with Food subscription was a bust (Im a picky eater). But i have also subscribed to the Mouth NY snack subscription & am very excited to get my first box! I love getting “treat” boxes in the mail for myself, might as well be able to eat some of them too. Lol!

  62. PhaeLea

    My son would love this — what could be better for a 15 year old boy!

  63. Meghan

    I would love to try the ~Hawaiian Luau BBQ Chips, however, I think my son would just love all of those items as an after school special snack when homework is complete. It would be so exciting for him to have such a variety to pick from and it would last for quite some time. Thanks for offering the give away. 🙂

  64. Lisa

    This looks like a replacement for Goodies! I love Oreos.

  65. Melanie K.

    I love Starburst gummies!

  66. Christina L.

    I would love to try the Starburst Gummibursts! I’m not the biggest fan of Starbursts but those look really yummy.

  67. Meagan

    I love the smog balls I found them once in a little candy shop. They are good :). This looks like a good subscription box to try.

  68. sandy

    OREOs for the win!!!

  69. Annie P.

    I would love most of these snacks…but a warning: I’ve had those luau bbq chips and they’re spicy HOT!! Just wanted to warn you before you send them in L’s lunch.

  70. Chrissy Shick

    I would most wanna try they Meiji! Love me some old school pokemon! lol

  72. Amy

    Skittles changed their green to apple and I’m unhappy about it 🙁 I don’t know why lime is no longer ok.

  73. Laura Gilbert

    Literally everything looks good. I’ve considered boxes like this but I’m terrified because I’m a picky eater.

    WOW. EVERYTHING LOOKS GOOD! haha

  74. Lynsey Morgan

    I want it all!! 🙂

  75. Cathy@Five Boys

    The Kudos bar covered with Dove chocolate looks good, but I definitely had a hard time picking only one!

  77. Allison

    1. Jennifer

      I am the same way. I feel like we’ll have Halloween candy for the rest of our lives.

  79. Paige

    Oh Boy,
    How could I choose, probably the laffy taffy since its my favorite candy!

  80. Amy Ballou

    I am a taffy junky, I would love to try those!
