Laid Back Snacks Review May 2023

Laid Back Snacks is a healthy snack subscription service with more than 30 different varieties to choose from including gluten-free, nut-free and vegan options. Here’s a look at the box and a little more about how it works. (Lots of options with this one!)*

*They kindly sent us this box for review.

Laid Back Snacks offers three box sizes: 6, 10 and 20 snacks. Each is available by subscription for delivery every two weeks, every month, or every two months. Subscribers can pick their snacks or opt for a surprise mix. (My subscription sends a surprise mix of 6 snacks once a month.)

If you want to try a box or gift a box or a subscription, you can do that too.

Laid Back Snacks ships across North America. Shipping for the 10- and 20-snack subscriptions is always free and free in some areas for the 6-snack plans.

Laid Back Snacks is careful to include a pretty balanced mix of sweet and savoury nibblies in its surprise boxes so there’s something for everyone. Most packages include 4 servings, about a palmful each.

First to hit the boards is one of our favourites, Hearty Tamari.

“Sesame sticks and spicy pretzels mixed with almonds and cashews, all lovingly slow roasted in delicious Tamari.”

An elevated bar snack with lots of crunch — but a tasteful crunch, not the obnoxious can’t-hear-you-’cause-I’m-chewing variety. The Tamari brings the umami, the pretzels a bit of kick and the nuts the satiating staying power of healthy proteins and fats. Num num num! 🤤🤤

Left to right: Hearty Tamari, Hot Cocoa Hugge and Cranberry Almond Clusters.

Hot Cocoa Hugge — “‘It’s too cozy in here’ – words never uttered by anyone. We’ve channeled maximum coziness in designing Hot Cocoa Hugge – the perfect throwback to happy childhood days. Sweet, smooth cocoa powder wasn’t enough of a taste profile for us. We’ve dialed things up using a sprinkle of salt and cinnamon for good measure. Enjoy all the indulgence this snack has to offer, perfectly paired with all the health benefits of almonds and cashews. So cozy!”

One of the newer snacks in Laid Back’s line up. My May box had two packs so doubly delicious, ‘tho the warm cinnamon spice and hot cocoa callback makes it feel like more of a winter snack.

Cranberry Almond Clusters — “Much like first cousin Cherry Pineapple Clusters, the ingredients in this yummy snack don’t like to fly solo. They believe life is better as a cluster. Almonds, good. Cranberries, good. Crunchy toasted coconut chips, good, good, good! We’ve pulled it all together with a sprinkle of organic flax seeds to make your mama happy. Nutritious and delicious – that’s what we do at Laid Back Snacks. And we can’t stop, won’t stop bringing you the magic.”

Another new snack (well new in the past couple of months) and one of the best IMHO. The fruity chew, the lightly salted crunch, the bestest of the bestest quality ingredients and so much nutritious goodness! I could eat the entire bag in one go.

Clockwise: Natyo Natcho Cashews, Cherry Pineapple Clusters and Hot Cocoa Hugge.

Natyo Natcho Cashews — “Some say sharing is caring. Not when it comes to Natyo Nacho Cashews. After dipping into their cheesy-cashew goodness, you’re likely to shun your friends and family and leave them hangering on the sidelines. We’re sorry, not sorry. Some things are too good to share and these nacho cashews are it! Cashews are rich in unsaturated fats, a source of fiber, and are an excellent source of plant based protein.”

Cherry Pineapple Clusters — “Some ingredients like to fly solo. Others believe life is better as a cluster. It’s hard to argue with the cluster lifestyle when it tastes this good. Cherries, good. Pineapple, good. Crunchy toasted coconut chips, good, good, good! We’ve pulled it all together with a sprinkle of organic flax seeds to make your mama happy. Nutritious and delicious – that’s what we do at Laid Back Snacks. And we can’t stop, won’t stop bringing you the magic.”

Are you getting hungry?!! Both so scrumptious!!

I love LOVE my Laid Back Snacks subscription! 🤪🤪 With so many different sweet and savoury options there’s something for everyone. The bags are convenient to grab on the go (or entertain in a pinch!) and because they’re packed with all kinds of nutritious goodness I feel like I’m consciously taking good care of myself, not just mindlessly snacking on empty calories. I can’t recommend it enough!
