Naturebox

MISSION: SNACK HEALTHY.

I am all about finding easy solutions to help you (and me) keep your hand out of the cookie jar.

Did you known that Americans consume an average of 25% of their calories from snacking?  As an avid snacker, this does not shock me one bit!  After eating a healthy lunch it is too easy to snack on goldfish or candy in the afternoon. Guilty!

Then along comes a company like Nautrebox to help us make better choices. For $19.95, they send you five bags of natural snacks every month.  I have to say, I was impressed with the size and variety of these healthy snacks.  In this month's box there was an array of snacks, such as cranberry almond bites, a Lone Star snack mix and a wonderful dried fruit mix.  My favorite was a ginger trail mix with yummy dark chocolate chips.  Old habits die hard.

Doctor J gave Naturebox a try.  I am always looking for healthy snacks to put in his work bag.  More often than not, a long day of surgery prevents him from having the time to eat a proper lunch or dinner, so I always make sure he is stocked up on snacks.

He looked slightly guilty because I told him not to eat all of my snacks. (I am working on being better at  sharing!)

I am seeing some resemblance between my twenty something year old husband and A Cup of Jo's darling two year old son.  Same guilty face when I told him to try the snacks.  Just saying.

P.S.  Want to try Naturebox for yourself?  Use the code PISTACHIO for 25% off your first month's subscription!

LOL, they must be like Pringles...once you pop you can't stop. I'm glad you found a healthy alternative to the normal chocolatey goodness that I'm used to eating. I go back and forth with getting healthy snacks and then going back to my Chips Ahoy. It's so hard trying to eat healthy while being a med student. That bad stuff is just too convenient. But like making it through school it'll take pure dedication and commitment. We can do it!
