My Goodies Co box seems to have a knack for showing up on the days when our pantry is starting to look a bit barren. This is a win/win, as it allows me to procrastinate grocery shopping a bit longer and also makes me more open to trying new things.
This month they introduced a slightly smaller box, which they say they'll use when they have smaller products to ship. Way to be green, Goodies Co.
Fruitwater Strawberry Kiwi: ($2.25) This is from the same line as VitaminWater and SmartWater. It contains no actual fruit juice, which is disappointing but not surprising. It does have vitamins and is 0 calories, so it's better than regular soda, I guess. I haven't tried it yet - I'm saving it for a day when I'm really craving a soda to see if this does the trick.
Cosmos Creations: ($.70) These little caramel coated corn puffs are crazy addicting. I accidentally ate this little pouch just while uploading and cropping the photos for this post. It's made with GMO-free corn and it's delicious. I'm probably going to order more, but I'm afraid I'd also polish one of the bigger bags off in one sitting.
Crunchmaster Multi-grain Crackers: ($.84) These crackers are too crunchy for my personal taste. If it gives you any idea, I knocked this bag off the counter twice on accident. Not a single one of the crackers so much as cracked.
The Better Chip Corn Chips: ($1.08) These chips aren't bad, but I wouldn't purchase them. You can certainly get the kale and spinach taste, but if I want kale flavored chips, I'll just make kale chips.
Gimbal's Candy Cherry Lovers: ($1.29) These jelly beans are all different cherry flavors and they actually were made with cherry juice. They're allergen, gluten and gelatin free...and really juicy and delicious. Cherry cheesecake is my favorite.
So this month's box seemed to be a hit with the sweet and a miss with the salty. Even still, $7/month is totally worth it to try out foods and brands I either had never heard of or would never have purchased on my own.
