Food Review: Hail Mary Seeds













I was sent a bag of Hail Merry's Sunflower seeds by Swaggable and wow were they awesome! Hail Merry Sunflower Seeds are dehydrated at a low temperature to protect their natural oils and then salt and pepper are added to give them an extra kick. They're vegan, gluten-free, and gmo and super healthy for you. They are not the type of sunflower seeds that you'll find in the convenience stores loaded with tons of salt. You really get a natural crunch and flavor when eating them. I don't think I ever noticed the great flavor that sunflower seeds have. I do have an unhealthy addiction to the salt laden sunflower seeds sold at convenience and groceries stores, but all I've ever tasted was salt.

Now they are more expensive than the $0.99 sunflower seeds, but don't let the price tag scare you. They are so full of flavor and added to salads, granola, or just having a handful will make it totally worth it. Sadly I ate my whole bag before even getting a chance to snap pictures of them. They were so good and I really wish I had more bags because one just wasn't enough. I tossed some in my salad and it added crunch and flavor as celtic sea salt and black pepper added some extra seasoning. These could definitely become a guilty pleasure of mine because they're just that good!

Conscious Box Giveaway







With so many monthly sample box subscriptions its hard to see which are different and which are the best. One of the newest ones I've been introduced to Conscious Box. It helps you discover the purest, healthiest natural products in the world. They send you beauty products, health food, and even non-toxic home goods.

Like all other monthly subs, Conscious Box delivers to you a box of 10 to 20 different products from businesses around the world. They are very selective about the products they send and only allow the purest companies working toward the most ethical goals. I like that you can really get to try out products that you would never really have heard of any other way. The fact that they come from businesses that care about the planet is a HUGE plus! 

As you discover new favorites, Conscious Box makes it fun (and rewarding!) to leave reviews and ratings so businesses can improve their product, packaging, and business as a whole. They place YOU at the core of helping natural products go from good to great!

Conscious Box is on a Mission!
Their are thousands of products claiming to be the healthiest, most socially responsible company, and it becomes difficult to sort through what works and what doesn't.  After experiencing this first-hand, the creators of Conscious Box knew there had to be a better way. They scour the marketplace to find those products that stand above the rest. That way you can be reassured that you are getting the best in natural, gluten-free, and vegan products.



Subscriptions: 
Subscribing is super easy and Conscious Box offers 4 different subscriptions: monthly, 3 months, 6 months, and yearly. Shipping is already included in the price so you don't have to worry about expensive shipping prices. The prices range from $19.95 for the monthly to $203.40 for the year. You can cancel at any time, although not sure if you are able to skip a month. There are also three different types of boxes that you can choose from. All boxes include great products from some well known and unknown companies, but all will surely make you happy.
