Hi Friends!
I’ve got an awesome company to tell you about today! Have you heard of Lollihop? It’s essentially a program where you pay a monthly subscription fee and in return, they send you a box of healthy snack samples each month!

From their website:
The membership.
The box.
The good life.
Over the past month or so, Lollihop reviews started showing up on a few of the blogs I read…Not one to miss out on the fun, I asked them if I could see for myself what all the fuss was about. They immediately offered to send me a box and about 2 days later it was sitting on my doorstep!
On the day I got my box, I had just gotten home from a super long day of studying and taking a really hard test. Seeing it on my steps totally made my day! I was STARVING and immediately dug into the box!
They send you a little card that tells you about the theme of the box. This month was whole grains, so it shows you whether each item is a good source of fiber, vitamins and minerals and/or healthy fats.
I immediately grabbed the Food Should Taste Good Chips! Love them 🙂
Later that night I tried the Popcorners and lemme just say: ADDICTED. They might be my new favorite snack. In fact, I had just so happened to have a larger bag of them sitting in the pantry from Sarah Smart Kitchen that I had yet to try. After trying the sample bag, we opened the big bag the next morning. I went to work and when I came home, the whole bag was GONE! Hubby ate them all. I think it’s safe to say we both liked them.
Next up, the Somersaults!
Like I mentioned in my last WIAW post, these were a bit too salty for me. But now that I know they exist, I’m definitely going to try out some of the other flavors!
The larabar made a great post-workout snack and I threw the Kind bar and the Gnu bar in my school bag to eat during class.
Best of all, I still have some stuff I haven’t tried yet!
Overall I was really impressed with my Lollihop box. The only downfall is that they’re a little bit expensive (in my opinion). I can’t afford to subscribe myself, but here’s the cool thing…you can give gift subscriptions! What a great Christmas present these would be!!!
If you’re able, I’d highly recommend subscribing to Lollihop! It’s the perfect way to learn about some fun, new healthy snacks. If you subscribe, tell them I sent you by using the referral code LINDSAY-LEANGREENBEAN.
Have you tried Lollihop? What’d you think? If you haven’t tried, is this something you’d consider subscribing too??
Happy Saturday 🙂

i’ve seen so many lollihop reviews lately and i’m so intrigued, but i don’t think i can afford it. i guess i’ll have to put together my own treat boxes for myself with whatever’s on sale and the co-op!
homemade treat boxes are just as good!
I’m so jealous! I want to try 🙂
Lollihop sounds like such a fun program! What could be better than getting food in the mail every month? 😀 Do you know if they can make boxes that cater to certain diets and allergies? I’d love to try it out, but I feel like my nut allergy might pose a bit of a problem… 😛
they have a vegan box, that’s it….plus they don’t ship to canada yet 🙁
I think Lollihop sounds awesome! I would love to try out the boxes but I can’t really swing paying for it right now! Maybe once I find a job I will try it out! 🙂
I have never even heard of this! Apparently I live under a rock? haha
This is a really interesting idea though… I am going to look into it!
I love the whole concept behind Lollihop! And I’m super jealous of your box! 🙂 I’d love to subscribe but agree that it’s a bit pricey…But a friend of mine is really interested in it so I’m thinking of getting her a subscription for Christmas.
A very cool idea indeed. However I guess I would have to weigh spending $19 for a box of snacks…might be cheaper to assemble you own, but I guess with this service you are going for convience of not having to shop.
I found those Somersaults at World Market a few weeks back and I guess I have a salt-tooth because I loved them. I brought the bag to work for a satisfying afternoon snack each day.
I agree, Lollihop seems like a great gift idea – yummy snacks without the guilt that comes along with a box of chocolates!
Lollihop has unfortunately gone out of business. If you still are looking for delicious healthy snacks delivered to you monthly, check out Healthy Surprise.
