August NatureBox Review
Enter my Ophelia's Apothecary Giveaway!
I've been putting this review on the back burner every-single-day! Oops! It's actually my last NatureBox (for awhile) since I made some sub box budget cuts. We do always like NatureBox- especially CJ- so I wanted to get this box up to share and better late than never!

Food!
I should say, first of all, that we got the surprise box, or we got the box of snacks that NatureBox chose and we put no input in at all. We might have started doing that at some point but since we'd only had a handful of boxes anyway, it was more fun to try new varieties.
Cocoa Waffle Wafers: We LOVED the lemon-whatever wafers we'd gotten before so I was pretty excited to see these... Umm, bleh. These weren't very chocolatey at all and lacked any sweetness- definitely the bummer of the box. CJ ended up eventually eating most of them but it wasn't cause he loved them.
Cherry Berry Bonanza: This mix of dried cranberries, cherries, and blueberries was a really nice mix of dried fruit. And we may be grown but we totally used them as ants on a log- and it was awesome!
Santa Fe Corn Stix: These were pretty good as a mix of tomato, green-pepper, and onion-flavored corn sticks. They weren't my favorite but CJ liked them a lot.
Sweet Blueberry Almonds: Definitely the best thing in the box! These puppies went fast! These almonds (which are always an amazing, filling, healthy snack) are flavored with natural blueberries as a dusty coating. They were super nummy. Laura approved.
Teriyaki Twists: I wanted to like this but I just couldn't get into them! I love teriyaki but these savory rice crackers weren't my jam. As always, CJ ate them. He's cool with everything.
Verdict: So, I never price NatureBox but I assume as each bag technically costs me $4 that it is worth the price in value. This month's box was kind of meh to me. Nothing exciting and the products sat in our pantry as CJ slowly ate them (except the almonds). I realized that we weren't eating them like our other snacks (and we are completely snack people- pantry full o' snacks) so I decided to cancel this sub. I called NatureBox, and of course, they taunted me with offers that were so cheap I wanted to give in but my budget was saying something else! I may re-subscribe sometime but in the meantime I'll always enjoy our time together and if I do come back I'll know what snackies to pick!
