Graze: 16.09.13

In this box, I got:

·         Applewood smoked beef jerky

·         Strawberry milkshake (strawberry infused cranberries, mini strawberries, white chocolate buttons and green raisins)

·         Tomato and basil pizza (basil crunchini, mini tomato breadsticks and cheese cashews)

·         Track and field (peanuts, caramel milk chocolate buttons, fudge pieces and raisins)

Four new treats in this box and all were requested with ‘send soon’ as Graze had launched a few new delights and I just could not wait to try them all. Let’s start with my least favourite...

I’ve never tried beef jerky before but I know I won’t be trying it again in a hurry. I didn’t really know what to expect and I still have no idea what it is! The texture was too strange to even describe, while the taste was a cross between smoky bacon crisps and something I can’t figure out. That said, I didn’t keep it in my mouth very long. It certainly wasn’t pleasant... BIN

Strawberry milkshake has been reinvented, unfortunately I wasn’t lucky enough to try it the first time round so can’t compare the two mixes. I knew I’d like this though – fruit and chocolate = winner! This little delight is also one of your five a day. Is there a better combination than strawberry and white chocolate? LIKE

If you like pomodoro rustichella, you’ll like tomato & basil pizza; both punnets are very similar in flavour. This mix of all things Italy is really scrummy and a good substitute for crisps. I had this one lunchtime alongside a can of minestrone soup and instantly fell in love. The mini breadsticks may be tiny but are packed full of flavour, while the crunchini is one of my favourite savoury snacks, I’d easily buy those by the bag load! LIKE

Another of the new(ish) punnets is track & field – the ultimate in sweet treats! There’s no reason to dislike this at all – fruit, nuts, chocolate and even fudge pieces; it’s almost like eating a fruit & nut bar! Each portion (48g) may come in at just over 200 calories but we’re all allowed a treat every now and then. Plus if you save half for another day, you don’t feel so guilty! I cannot wait to have this again – but there’s no way it won’t all go at once! LOVE
