Healthy Surprise is a subscription box that delivers vegan, natural, gluten-free, and soy-free food. They have three types of boxes with different numbers of servings in each. I got the Starter box, which is supposed to be 16-20 servings for $33 + $6.99 shipping a month.
The box was very nicely packed; even J commented on it when I first opened it up.
At this point, J pulled up a chair to check out everything I pulled out. The box was pretty full of goodies.
Home Free mini chocolate chip cookies: ($1.49) Home free makes treats perfect for anyone with food allergies. The little packet of cookies that I received actually had expired on 5/15, but J will probably try these anyway.
Journey bar: ($2) I adore all things sea salt, so I'm pretty excited to try this. They have other flavors that sound interesting, like coconut curry, so if I like this one I might pick up the sampler pack.
Just Pure Foods Zucchini Chips: ($7) I have seen this brand's kale chips in HEB, but never tried them since I usually make my own kale chips. These were...interesting. I didn't hate them, but dijon isn't my favorite of flavors. I'll probably wind up eating the whole bag,anyway. I really want to try the Sour Cream & Onion flavor out.
Fruit.0: ($2.49) I haven't loved any of the fruit pouches that I've tried so far, but I'm always willing to keep trying different ones.
Freshly Wild Onion Joy: ($5) I'm obsessed with Funyuns and the French's onions you put on green bean casserole, so I was super excited to try these. They're a little bit more chewy than French's onions, but still pretty tasty. They're flavored with salt, nuts, and lemon, and you can certainly taste the lemon on them.
Crunchies Freeze Dried Mango: ($1.69) I really like Crunchies' cinnamon apples, but haven't tried any of their other fruits. I'm sure I'll enjoy these, too.
Taza Chocolate Chocolate Mexicano Discs: ($4.50) I've seen several bloggers get these in other boxes, so I literally squealed when I pulled this out. I've been on a massive chocolate tasting spree, so this will certainly be put into the queue. :)
LiveSmart Raw Bar: ($3) It's called Chocolate Suicide, so it HAS to be good...right?
Cocomo Joe JOEBAR: ($2.50) Yeah, sure, the bar looks great, but they also make organic chocolate milk granola. Shut up and take my money.
That's it Fruit Bar: ($1.66) This will make a great breakfast the next morning I'm running late. That is, unless J manages to eat it first.
SunBiotics Almonds: ($3.99) Almonds are my favorite nuts, ever. I might have to melt down a bit of that Mexican chocolate and coat these in it.
Final verdict: The total value of the box comes to a bit over $35. It's not the bang for your buck you might get with other food boxes, but if you are wanting to try more vegan and/or gluten free foods, it's absolutely worth it. Right now, Plum District has a $20 coupon code for your first month.
