Goodies Co. May - Box 2





OMG! I love this box. Actually all I saw was the sour strings and the coconut water.  I didn’t notice the other stuff. I am not sure if that is saying much about me.


Wholly Guacamole   -  It   came with a  coupon for  a free product of your choosing. Which is nice because you get to choose but also sucky if  the store you carry it on doesn’t carry the products. The stores close to me don’t carry this which is okay, I am allergic to avocados but I was thinking of making a dip and bringing it in for work.  I also love how they gave a clip for your potato chips. We are huge fan of potato chips at our house and sadly enough  we don’t have a clip for our chips. Well now we do :)





Sour Power Straws - Blue Raspberry Candy Straws -  I love eating this when I was little. They are a perfect combination of sweet and sour. I ate the whole package in 20 seconds flat.


Sour Power Straws - Pink Lemonade Candy Straws -  These were a bit more sour than the blue raspberry ones. The blue raspberry is my favorite but I still polished these off.








Beanitos - Chipotle BBQ  - I am not a huge fan of BBQ flavored chips but these were tasty. I like the concept of a “health chip”. I would probably get these in another flavor as I don’t like BBQ flavor.





 Numi Organic Tea - Moroccan Mint - I am not a huge tea fan but I will occasionally sip me some of nature’s brew. I did like the sweet scent of mint and the tea itself had mild mint taste which I did enjoy. But definitely drink this while it is hot as when it cools down it isn’t as tasty.

 ico - Coconut Water -  My brother loves these so I didn’t even get to taste this.

Bronco Bob's - Mango Chipotle Sauce  - I didn’t have a purpose for this so I gave it to a friend who likes mangoes. Although, she wasn’t quite sure what to do with it.

SuperSeedz - Sea Salt - These tasted like sunflower seeds except towards the end they had nutty pumpkin taste.

 

California Olive Ranch - Olive Oil -   I am not sure how this qualifies as a goodie, but I used this to make stir fry. I couldn't taste really taste the difference from my normal olive oil.

Goodies Co. April “Spring” - Taster Box 5


This month’s goodies seem a bit bland [ a lot of granola ] compared to last month. I noticed, they didn’t include a card that lists all the goodies that came in the box. I got mostly granola bars :( I did however get a $50 to Naked Wine. I seen other subscription boxes include it as well. The website was soo annoying and frustrating. They cancelled my order  twice, charge me for it and I am yet to get email an order confirmation or a tracking number [update - I sent an email and someone said they would look into it! yay!].  UGH. Well, on to the goodies.

*Updated - My ordered finally got shipped and I received it, but I was still annoyed about the whole cancelling my order*



Green Giant Multigrain Sweet Potato Chips with Sea Salt - Upon opening the bag the scent of sweet potato flooded the air. The light and crunchy chip tastes like sweet potato in the beginning and then towards then end I taste the multigrain flavor with a bit of salt. It reminds me of Sun  Chips with similar  taste and texture. Overall, it was pretty tasty for a “healthy” snack.


Frontier Macadamia Pineapple Coconut -  I wasn’t expecting this to be crunchy [I just realized they wrote “crunchy” on the label...shows how much I read ] but it was. It was really delicious and not overly sweet. I am sad that there was only 4 pieces. I like how you can taste the flavors but they were not overpowering or competing with each other.



Truebar Bakery on Main -  This was tasty. I didn’t expect it to taste as sweet. It could be of all the  the added fruit. It was also a bit sticky. Personally, I would not go out of my way to eat it again.


Celsius Sparkling Orange - I am not really a fan of energy drinks. But since I had this I thought I might as well. I like that it was only 10 calories and packed with vitamins and nutrients. The only downside it tasted horrible. I drank two sips and threw away the rest. It wasn’t even worth the extra 9 calories to drink it.




Zone Perfect - Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough  - It was tasty and surprising not overly sweet. Although, I did notice a slight weird after taste. I like it but not enough to go out of my way to get it again.

 



Angie’s Sweet and Salty Popcorn - I love these! They were a bit sweet and salty at the same time. It wasn’t overly sweet or salt but a perfect combination. I will definitely buy these again!
