@Sally W yes, they are expensive indeed!!! when we got the subscription they were first starting so it was a bit cheaper but still pricey... I think I saw the individual packs in a Sainsbury's Local, if I can hold the diet as I have been doing this month for at least another couple of months, I may treat myself to a couple!!! 🙂
 
When travelling I take Graze boxes. Whilst trying to avoid too much processed food I like them for emergencies as they are sized for snacking, avoiding too many calories. If I’m not hungry they just go back into cupboard for another journey. The lime and chilli nuts are lowest carbs🙂

I bought one yesterday after your suggestion

I bought a couple of Lidl’s version of Graze boxes to try today, however there were only a couple of varieties that were under 15g carbs. They are slightly cheaper than the subscription punnets at 69p each but I like the variety in the Graze ones and limit myself to strictly one a day. This was much harder to do when I used to have them delivered to work, and there was a whole box sitting in the drawer,but now I just take one to work each day.

I have to say I wasn’t impressed with the price - may have to give Lidl a look at some point 🙂 The nuts one I bought has 9.1g carbs so didn’t think that was too bad, some of the others were way to high in carbs o_O

I cannot open the lime and chilli nuts without eating the whole packet! I bought them in bulk once, terrible idea 😛 5 packets gone in about a week
