Degustabox August // The Summer Box

Hello, sorry for the carpet shots – I’m moving house and my usual blog backgrounds are in a box somewhere. Oh no. So this will have to do until we are sorted out properly.

So the August Degustabox came and it was the first blog mail that I’ve had sent to the new house. Yay.

Oloves

These handy snack bags of olives are ideal for on the go. A healthy snack that’s seasoned and easy to chuck in your handbag. They’re low in calories and have no stones. They’re nowhere near as nice as fresh olives, but ok for a snack.

Rountree’s Randoms 30% less sugar

Tasting this, I could not tell there was less sugar in them. Yay. They’re also free from artificial colour and flavours. You can also get fruit pastilles 30% less sugar, too,

£1.29

Merchant Gourmet Simply Cooked Red & White Quinoa

This ready to use quinoa has been cooked in water and a drizzle of olive oil. It’s a great base for salads or as an alternative for rice. I love quinoa and we’ve been eating it quite often lately. I might take this to work for a healthy easy lunch.

£1.99

Blossom Hill Spritz

I still have the white one of this I was sent. I’m saving it for a sunny day where we can sit in the garden and I can have something with a bit less alcohol than wine.

£4.99

Thor Dry Apple Spritz

Oh wow, these are delicious. I had the mint one with martini and it was the perfect mixer. I’ll be getting this again if I see them in Tesco. So refreshing.

Crafted Mango and Passion Fruit

This range of juice drinks has no added sugar or sweeteners and a serving counts or 1 of your 5 a day.

£1.80

Ryvita Thins Three Cheese

I am a massive fan of the other Ryvita thins, so can’t wait to get popping with these. I might make some quac to go with them.

£1.89

Weetabix Additions Coconut & Raisin

I love weetabix, I’m unsure how I feel about this as I’m not a fan of coconut much. I love the chocolate ones the best. Give me.

£2.99

Fryight Avocado Spray

I’m a long time user of frylight, but I’ve never tried the avocado version. I love avocado though and can’t wait to use this.

£2.99

Maille Dijon Mustard

Yay, mustard. I tried a mustard and ham sandwich for the first time the other day and I was sad that I’ve been having tomato sauce on my ham sandwiches for the past 31 years.

This apparently goes perfect with a steak.
