NatureBox Review
NatureBox is a snack delivery service that delivers a diverse range of snacks to your doorstep every month. Here’s our NatureBox review.
What is NatureBox?
NatureBox is yet another food delivery service that has popped onto the market in the last year. NatureBox focuses on delivering healthy snacks to your doorstep.
The company’s catalog of snacks contains over 100 tasty options. You choose 3 to 5 snacks to receive with each delivery. Vegan and non-GMO options are available.
Each snack has between 3 to 5 servings. You can also customize your number of snacks and the frequency of your snack delivery.
NatureBox pricing starts at $14 USD for 3 snacks and $20 for 5 snacks. You can choose to get those snacks delivered once a week, once every 2 weeks, or once a month. Shipping is free to American addresses, although Canadian customers will have to pay an extra $4.95.
NatureBox is one of the most popular snack delivery services available today and is also one of the fastest growing services. As testament to the popularity of the snack delivery service, the company has over 1 million Facebook fans.
Types of NatureBox Foods
One of the things that makes NatureBox different is that it packages all of its snacks into its own NatureBox-branded packaging.
Unlike other food delivery services, you’re not just getting a bunch of third-party snacks thrown into a box. You’re getting exclusively NatureBox snacks.
Here are some of the NatureBox you can receive with your subscription:
— Dark Chocolate Berry Trail Mixes
— Sriracha Pop Pops
— Cinnamon Spiced Almonds
— Mini Belgian Waffles
— Strawberry Lemonade Fruit Stars
— Cashew Crumble
There are certain foods that cost more to add to your order. The cashew crumble, for example, is priced at $4 per bag. There are also other premium add-ons like dips, including hummus, tapenade, and roasted red pepper dips.
In general, reviews posted online about NatureBox are positive.
Here are some other stats NatureBox has posted about its snacks:
— 60 of the snacks are vegan-friendly, including dried fruits, nut mixes, and more
— 60 snacks are made without soy ingredients
— 75 snacks are made without milk (note: NatureBox doesn’t say they’re made without dairy)
— 60 snacks are made without gluten
— 55 snacks are non-GMO

Ultimately, the manufacturer promises that the diverse catalog of snacks gives you plenty of options regardless of your dietary restrictions.
You can pick and choose the exact snacks you like with NatureBox. Or, if you’re not super picky, you can just tell NatureBox your preferences and they’ll pick a bunch of snacks for you.
