22 Days Nutrition Quinoa Chocolate Chip Crisp Protein Bar - $2.99
Both Walnut Fudge Brownie and Chocolate Chip Crisp bars from 22 Days Nutrition are organic, non-GMO, gluten-free, and contain 20g of protein each. The bar on the whole was a bit dry, but I loved the crunch the from quinoa and flaxseeds. I ate mine with milk (don't judge) because it tasted like a chocolate chip flavored fudge or brownie. This bar would be great as a filling meal alternative for when you want to eat light or don't have time for a whole meal.
22 Days Nutrition Walnut Fudge Brownie Protein Bar - $2.99
The Fudge Brownie flavor is less sweet than the Quinoa Chocolate Chip Crisp. It's soft and a little oily but again I love the crunchy flaxseed texture mixed with walnut bits.
ANSI Nutrition - Protein Ice Blue Raspberry - $3.99
I'm not a big fan of this drink. When chilled it tastes like the blue raspberry shaved ice you buy at the state fair, but with a strange, almost chemical aftertaste. I definitely appreciate changing up the flavors in the box, but this one wasn't for me.
MusclePharm Pina Colada Coco Protein - $2.77
This protein-rich coconut water is supposed to be pina colada flavored, but to me it was only mildly fruity. I am able to discern the pineapple taste but no much else. That isn't to say it's not tasty though-- I don't usually like coconut water but this was very refreshing when chilled.
Bitefuel Banana Apple Trail Mix - $1.99
This bag is a great single-serving snack that you can take on the road or to the gym. It contains 10g of protein and is yummy to boot. I like the crunchiness of pecans mixed with bananas and apples. I ate half the bag on its own, and then added the rest to some yogurt and called it breakfast.
Bitefuel Chocolate Chip Cookies - $3.49
I like these soft chocolate chip cookies. They taste kind of like the less sweet version of Grandma's brand cookies. They are gluten free, preservative free, low cholesterol, and are very filling!
Pure Protein Chocolate Salted Caramel Protein Bar - $2.19
If you like caramel then you should try this. It has 19 grams of protein and tastes like a delicious salted caramel chocolate bar.
Aloha Protein Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Bar - $2.46
Protein bars tend to be a little dry for my tastes, but despite that this bar is delicious. It tastes like a dense chewy chocolate chip cookie. I like the nuts and chocolate combo, and the nuts to chocolate chip to bar ratio is very well-balanced. I'm just loving all these dessert flavored protein bars!
Divine Bovine Tangy Teriyaki Beef Jerky - $7.99
The top of this bag claims this is "soft, moist, and tender brisket of beef." Words have never so accurately described the amazing texture of this beef jerky. I simply didn't know jerky could taste this soft, and moist, and tender! The teriyaki flavor is amazing as well. It is a very tangy and sweet meat. Some might even say this is too sweet, but I loved it. Ok, Divine Bovine, you live up to your name.
AjiPure ArgiFlow Amino Acid Supplement in Fruit Punch - $1.53
This item wasn't listed on the info card. I'm really out of the loop-- I didn't know amino acid supplements were a thing! This single-use packet contains pharmaceutical grade L-Arginine powder. L-Arginine helps improve cardiovascular health, promotes healthy levels of growth hormone and insulin, and aids in removing toxic ammonia from the body. The supplement is 100% all natural and gluten and dairy free.
Verdict: I enjoyed munching on SumoCrate's snacks this month. The March box has a total value of $32.39, which is higher than the monthly cost plus shipping! My favorite is definitely the Divine Bovine beef jerky... I just can't get over how soft and tender each piece was. This was SumoCrate's "first" fitness box after they transitioned from curating protein-snack only boxes. It seems to me that there wasn't a dramatic change in curation. The mix of beverage and snack items are also appreciated.
