Healthy eating, with Graze.com

So a few months ago I found a fantastic company called graze they send great and healthy snacks in boxes through the post. They offer some great choices for a great price, these boxes are awesome because you can have sent anywhere. You can get them sent to work if you’re an office these are perfect because I (and I’m sure lots of you are guilty of it) snack, I get pretty bored and hungry and find myself reaching for chocolates or biccies. People seem to take loads of yummy foods into offices and it’s bad because I’m sat there for 7 hours a day snacking, I do drink A LOT of water so in some respects I balance the junk with healthy (This is what I tell myself anyway) lol.

I like graze because the staff are very helpful, I’d sent them a question and within 10 minutes they came back to me and because they thought I was complaining they offered me a 20% discount. They are chatty and really nice I cannot recommend them enough.













The things I love about graze:

You can try things you never thought you would for £2.99 inc postage and package, you get a good balance of things. You can have olives, Yes I realise olives aren’t so good for you but it’s part of a balanced diet so indulge a little. You can have nuts, dried fruit crackers. It’s endless.

I like that you go onto the site and say what you like and what you don’t then they don’t send them.

This is a like as well as a dislike, you don’t choose what you get which is good sometimes because when you get your email telling you to ‘rate or slate’ the box it’s a surprise which is nice.

I like the packaging, everything they use is recycled.

I like the fact that you get quite a lot of the product in each individual punet.

I’m happy that they send you well balanced products that will fill you up.

(Excuse this picture, My camera broke so I took it with my iPhone and the iPhone camera is a big old pile of rubbish) 
With every box you receive you they send you a personalised card with your name on it and they give you information about the box you have received, which tells you the fat content how many calories are in each product etc. It’s such a nice touch that they send these cards, on the card they also send you a code so you can pass it onto friends and they can try a free box. You aren’t tied to it, you could try the free one and close your account, so you don’t have a set amount of boxes you can get. 



If you are interested in trying one my code is:

MM26L8G3, all you do is put this code into the checkout and you can get a free box and your next box will be half price. The site is http://www.graze.com/

I can go on for hours about the things I like so lets move onto the The things I don’t like

The only major drawback (to some this a put off) you don’t choose what you get, You can’t say I’ll have a punet of olives, a punet of cashew nuts etc they choose it for you.

This is my only dislike, as you can see the good points outweigh the bad. I honestly cannot give them enough hype. I will continue to use these for as long as they’re in business they’re just that good.
I hope you like this short review and I hope you try them out because you honestly do not know what you’re missing.

Happy weekend
