Yesterday was such a good subscription box day around here and one of the boxes that arrived was my August 2014 Love With Food box!
If you aren’t familiar, Love With Food box members receive a curated box filled with 8+ unique gourmet food items. Each box brings new delights, with bites that vary based on seasonal themes. In addition, Love With Food donates a meal (I actually think this month was two meals) to a child in need with each box purchased, which you can read more about here.
Love With Food ships via DHL and took only five days to arrive this month. Not too bad for DHL if you ask me.
With every Love With Food box I get I wonder how in the world they pack all this stuff in such a little box and this month was no exception. For every five boxes I get from them I can repack them up and get the box closed maybe once. Maybe.
The August Love With Food theme was “Fun at the County Fair” and included a box of blue-ribbon snacks full of fun for the whole family. This month’s information card was totally revamped and is now a fold out brochure instead of just a front and back sheet. It also includes a recipe for one of the items in the box which I think is super cool! Here is what was inside:
~Montreal Steak Spice Seasoning Potato Chips by Covered Bridge: Totally a B item. He is all about the salty snacks and is currently addicted to the new Lays Bacon Mac n’ Cheese, so these will be a nice change of pace.
~Crispy Cheddar Crackers by Back to Nature: Totally love these crackers. I hope this brand eventually arrives at my local grocery store because I would totally buy them.
~Cinnammon Grahams by Skeeter Nut Free: Another awesome snack! I don’t really consider this a fair food, but they are for sure tasty and the kids love them.
~Kettle Sweet Peanuts by Love With Food: The recipe in the information book was for “Blue Ribbon Chocolate Peanut Cookies” and called for 1/2 cup of these. I am not really a fan of cookies with nuts in them, but these sound really really good!
~Nutty Rice Bites with Blueberries by 180 Snacks: Even though I read the label on this I still looked at the picture and thought there were raisins in it. LOL! I need to see what other flavors these come in because they were better than expected.
~Pineapple + Coconut Fruit Ice by Smooze!: The kids love these! WB is a popsicle / freeze pop addict (he is so hooked) and L loves fruit bars, so this will be gone just as soon as its frozen.
~Salty Peanut & Salty Caramel Apple Salt Water Taffy by Salty Road: The salty caramel is totally my favorite, but the salty peanut isn’t so bad either. Not bad at all.
~Lollipops by Yumearth: These are going to be in my purse for emergency meltdowns for the boys when we are out and about. Well, for WB since he’s the only one who really melts down. They will love them.
I never do a cost breakdown on Love With Food, but, as usual, I certainly think it’s worth the $12/month I pay for it! This wasn’t one of my all-time favorite months ever, but that might just be because it didn’t have any chocolate in it. LOL!
