July Love With Food Box



This is my second Love With Food box and again I am excited to receive me. It stumps me how they can pack a box so little with a variety of different items




What is Love With Food?

Love With Food is a monthly subscription that provides tasty food items every month. They box is 10.00 a month + 2.00 for shipping. Each month you receive a box, you have the ability to earn points by doing reviews to get free products. Also for each box you purchase, meals are donated to food banks in a fight to end hunger.


Fun on the Boardwalk

Each Love with Food box has a theme and this months theme was Fun on the Boardwalk. When I think of boardwalks, I think of junk food that is seen at carnivals. I think of peanuts, pretzels, corn dogs and candy. It came with a flyer and on the back of it, it provides details of the products that are in the box and descriptions of each item. They were spot on with the theme.

The Contents

1. Kukuruza Hawaiian Salted Caramel Popcorn
2. Smoke and Cure BBQ Beef Stick
3. Nut Levington Rebel Mary Peanuts
4. Angel Mint All Natural Orange Salt Water Taffy
5. Twangerz Snack Topping
6. Uncle Henry's Homemade Sourdough Pretzels
7. Natures Bakery Strawberry Fig Bar
8. NECCO Classic Candy Wafers


Deluxe Sized Samples

I'm am not a fan of popcorn because of the kernels but when I did use to enjoy popcorn, caramel was my favorite. When I the Hawaiian Salted Caramel Popcorn, the salt made me a little iffy. Although I don't like popcorn, I did try one and allowed C to eat the remaining. I think they were going with the sweet and salty concept. I thought it was good but I would have enjoyed it more if it had less salt. This product is valued at approximately 2.72



I'm not a fan of jerky sticks so I will probably pass on tasting the BBQ Beef Stick. I will more than likely pass this along to a friend. This product is valued at approximately .62.



Oh my goodness, I was excited to see the Lord Nut Levington Rebel Mary Peanuts because I love peanuts. Theses were in the flavor of Spicy Bloody Mary. These were the first item that I grabbed out of the box and I was not disappointed. I loved the tomato flavor and then it hits you with spice. I will be buying this item in the future. They knew that we would love them so much, they provided a coupon for .50 off your next purchase of this product which comes in other flavors. This product is valued at approximately .69.




I'm not a fan of hard pretzels that aren't flavored but Uncle Henry's Handmade Sourdough Pretzel were huge. The tasted a little better than original pretzels because they were bigger. I didn't like the huge salt crystals that were on the pretzel. This is not a product that I will be buying. This product is valued at approximately 1.33.




I did not know they made fig bars in different flavors but when I saw the Nature's Bakery Stawberry Fig Bar it proved that they did. I have never tried fig bars mainly because of their look and smell but hey with strawberry flavor you can't go wrong. I actually liked this. It was soft and chewy and I loved the strawberry flavor. I couldn't actually find this product online but based on the price on Love with Food it is valued at approximately 6.50 for a 2 ounce pack. I would never purchase this item at that price although all of the flavors sound delicious.




Sample Products

Twangerz Snack Topping also offered as a sample. We got four different flavors in the box; pickle salt, lemon lime salt, lime salt, and chilli lime salt. I haven't tried them yet but I have a project I want to use the lemon lime salt on. On the pack it recommends sprinkling it on your fruit, vegetables, chips, popcorn, etc. A full sized of this item, 1.15 oz, is 6.50.















Angel Mint All Natural Salt Water Taffy was also put in the box. We got two pieces. This was my first time trying it and I must say I missed out on this item as a child. When I heard salt water, it automatically made me think that it would be salty. I loved the fact that it was not like a Laffy Taffy but it was soft, melt in your mouth and didn't get stuck in my teeth. I would actually buy these and you can get a 24 ounce tub for 11.00.






NECCO Classic Candy Wafers is as stated on the flyer, a blast from the past. Although I did see these in goody bags as a kid, I never tasted them. The flavor of them is a little off to me and I can't describe it but the kids like it and if they like it they will not go to waste.




The Extras

The extra things they put in these boxes are amazing. Last month was a 25.00 wine gift card and this mon th they put a 25.00 gift card for Hello Fresh. I was happy to see this because I have been wanted to try Hello Fresh which is a subscription that provides fresh ingredients for you to try three recipes of your choice. I will be using this gift card soon and can't wait to use it.


They also provided a coupon for the Lord Nut Levington peanuts and I will have to try to find where they are located because these peanuts are a must have.


Overall Thoughts

I love Love with Food . With the purchase of this months box, two meals were donated to the Oklahoma Food Banks. This is a subscription that I will keep because each month is exciting and has me anticipating the next months box.
