First Look

I purchased the “Happy Snacker”- The Classic box.  For reference, the box is probably about the same size as a PopSugar box and is packed full.

The Card

UrthBox doesn’t include a detailed information card, but my January 2015 Medium “Happy Snacker” box contained the following items:
~New Tree Chips de Pommes: Despite these saying “Apple Chips” right on the package, B was trying to tell me that they were not indeed apples and that pommes was potatoes.  I looked it up and we are both right.  “pomme de terre” is potatoes so that is what he was thinking of!

~Seaweed Love Roasted Seaweed:I know some people absolutely love seaweed, but I am not one of this people.  I don’t mind the taste as much as the texture.  It’s just not for me.

~Creative Snacks Co. Brain Food: This is more of a B snack.  I’d describe it as a trail mix, but without the m&m’s. And not quite as salty.

~ProTings – Sea Salt: These are delicious. I want to find a bigger bag of these because I already want more.  With hummus or some other dip they’d be even better!

~Hemp Hearts: These have appeared in a few boxes here and there.  They are doable on salads, but I don’t necessarily want to eat them right out of the package.

~Bumble Bar: Depending on the day, sometimes I love these and sometimes I just like them.  They are always good, but when I am in the mood for one, they are awesome.

~Betty Lous Energy Balls: Meh.  I wasn’t a fan of this.  I probably should have given it to B to test out because I kind of knew going into it that it wasn’t for me.

~WOW Snickerdoodle Cookie: Love these!  I like the chocolate chip ones better, but the Snickerdoodle are pretty darn good too.

~Jolly Oak Good for You Granola: Another B snack.  Although, I do really like granola.  A little too much actually.

~Fabz Sea Salt Fava Beans: These are totally new to me.  And they are surprisingly tasty!  I’m a new fan!

~Pop Corners Sweet Cinnamon Popped: These are really good too. Although I actually have always liked rice cakes and that kind of thing.  B on the other hand isn’t a fan.

~Creative Snacks Co. Organic Toasted Coconut Chips: Again these work for me on a salad, but I don’t love to just snack on them.

~Pepperoni Turkey Jerky: B ate these, but he didn’t love them.  He said that they were okay, but he wouldn’t seek them out at the store.

~Fortified Eye Care Nectar: Not bad, but not a drink I would grab for.  I will stick to my Spark.

~Heartbar Oatmeal Sqaure: Loves this!  It was kind of a cross between a Banana Nut Muffin and an Oatmeal Cookie.  Very good.

~Dried Cherries: L loves these!  He is a big fan of raisins and dried cranberries and cherries.  They are a really good school snack.

~Jean Pierre Facial Tissues: These were a fun surprise! I already have them thrown in my purse.  I hate having an oily face!

I didn’t do a cost breakdown on this box, but it works out to a little less than $2 per item.   I said it in my last review, but I ma planning on downgrading to the Small box option.  While I like the snacks for the most part, this is just too many snacks.

    My box was a little different from yours, about the same number of items but a few differences I am too lazy to figure out. The main thing is I did not get the seaweed. Yay! I should like it because it tastes salty, but it makes me shudder. – blech ack! I consider getting rid of this box and then I think it feels like a good value for different snacks, and I end up letting it renew for another six months. I’m going for it again.

      The texture is just too much for me. Maybe if it was thicker? I don’t know??

    They sell the Wow brand at Target. My sister gets them because they are gluten-free.
