Curious to find out what’s inside? Keep on reading!
Urban Fruit Baked Pineapple (RRP £1 each)
First up, I pulled out these two bags of gently baked pineapple pieces from Urban Fruit. These are exactly as you would imagine them to be with no added sugar and they count as 1 of your 5 a day. Super easy to add to lunchboxes and desk drawers for a healthy snack!
Boost Iced Coffees (RRP £1 each)
Next up, I found some delicious cans of Boost Iced Coffees. I received two flavours; Caffè Latte and Mocha. These contain a blend of Arabica and Robusta coffee for an intense flavour.
Chewits
Who doesn’t love Chewits? Inside this month’s Degustabox, you’ll be able to enjoy two varieties; the original Cherry flavour, and the exciting Xtreme Sour Lemon – yum! Suitable for vegetarians with no artificial colours or flavours.
KitKat Bites (RRP £1.59)
For something chocolatey, you can indulge in a sharing-size bag of these popular KitKat bites (basically smaller KitKats!), which are now made with 100% certified and sustainable cocoa beans.
Napolina Drained Quinoa & Cannellini Beans (RRP £0.75 each)
If you’re looking for a quick and easy mid-week meal, these handy tins of drained Quinoa and Cannellini Beans come ready to serve and are great for adding to salads and lunchboxes for some healthy protein.
Kind Maple Pecan Almond Bar (RRP £1.49)
I’m a huge fan of Kind bars and particularly love this Maple Pecan Almond flavour which is packed full of nuts and a sweet syrup. Very addictive!
Whitworths Protein By Nature Moroccan Grains (RRP £2)
Inspired by flavours of North Africa, these Moroccan Grains are ready to eat in just 2 minutes with a quick blast in the microwave so they’re perfect for speedy meals in the week. Each pack also contains a whopping 20g of plant-based protein too.
Guinness Cooking Paste (RRP £3)
Described as ‘your new secret ingredient’, Guinness Cooking Paste is an interesting new concept that adds a depth of rich and smoky flavour to chillis, casseroles and stews etc. A tablespoon is all that’s needed so have fun and experiment in the kitchen!
Plantastic Chocolate & Cherry Flapjacks (RRP £2.25)
Delight your tastebuds with these cheeky Chocolate & Cherry Flapjacks from Plantastic which are now made to a new recipe. As the name suggests, these are plant-based and very moreish – ideal for lunchboxes.
Hippeas Chickpea Puffs in Sriracha Chilli (RRP £0.99)
Another vegan-friendly snack, Hippeas are very popular and for good reason. Each pack is a guilt-free 88 calories, they are high in fibre and gluten-free too. Best of all, these taste amazing with a very satisfying crunch!
J2O Spritz (RRP £2.65)
For a refreshing soft drink, you can’t go wrong with a J2O Spritz and this one in Apple & Watermelon is a lovely summery and fruity flavour with a light sparkle to it.
Knorr Fish Stock Pots (RRP £1.65)
Unfortunately, I don’t personally eat fish so I’ll be passing this onto the food bank, but I do like the other veggie flavours in the same Knorr Stock Pot range as they are so easy to use.
