The Tough Mudder is behind me and I’m happy to mark that off my bucket list. It was the hardest thing I have ever done. A cold front came through and the wind was blowing pretty hard. I had to skip a few obstacle for fear of complete hyperthermia. I nearly froze to death. But we finished! And I’ve got the bruises and gimp leg to prove it! Unfortunately I have no photos because none of my friends wanted to come watch and support us.
Today I want to tell you about two exciting snack subscription services that help you take all the guesswork out of finding healthy snacks for you and your family. I’m all for making snacks at home, but sometimes life is crazy and that just isn’t an option. Or maybe you do not live near a natural food store where you can find healthy snacks. Enter Healthy Surprise and Vegan Cuts Snack Box.
It’s a brilliant idea really. If you are already buying snacks and you are healthy, vegan, and/or gluten-free you know the tiresome act of label reading on all package food. Why not save some time and let someone else read the labels for you! And what if you buy a package of something then discover you don’t like it. You don’t want to waste the money and the product. By going with a snack subscription service you can try new products you may have never heard of before and discover new things you love. That’s what happened to me!
The Vegan Cuts monthly subscription box includes 5-8 vegan products, both food and household, that are similar to the products they offer in their daily deals. They quickly sold out of the first October box, so better sign up now for the November box. If you haven’t check out their daily deals you should rush over to their website and check it out!
Healthy Surprise (as seen in the photo to the right) has 3 subscription options for those who need or want more snacks in their box. I tried one of their boxes and was pleasantly surprised at all the options and variety. There were brands that I had never heard of before, which is a rare thing. Watch the video below to find out more.

I was like a kid in a candy store when I opened that box of goodies! But instead of being depressed and discouraged because I couldn’t eat anything in the store, I was overjoyed that I could eat every single thing in the Healthy Surprise box! My favorites were the chai bliss almonds, the caramel corn, the cinnamon and sugar chips, the kale chips, Boba’s oat bar and a cookie who’s brand escapes me.
Thankfully for you, Healthy Surprise is letting me giveaway one of these delicious snack boxes! Enter to win a “Healthy” box which has 32-40 servings per box and feeds 2-6 people. You will not be disappointed! US residents only.

I am obsessed with Funky Monkey freeze dried fruit. A one serving bag has two servings of fruit and are all about 100 calories!

My all time favorite snack is an apple with nut butter, but lately I have been enjoying Way Better Foods sweet potato tortilla chips. They go great with guac! Yum.

I get the email updates with the special discounts from Vegan Cuts, but I have never tried either of these subscriptions. I love trying new products so that I can recommend them to my clients (and eat them myself)!

My favorite company for "snack food" is Kashi–I eat their cereals (most are vegan) as snacks

Have to say my favorite snack is Go Max Go candy bars. But that's why I need to sample more healthy foods!
