      The normal cost for that box is £13.99, although you can get 20% off if it's your first box. I would have to say this box felt like less value than the ones we have had before, but still interesting to try some unusual snacks. As for the drink, I wouldn't rush out to get it again, it was very, very green wasn't it !

    Snack Verse is a cool idea and has some educational value as well. Sadly, Malaysia doesn't have that sort of thing.
    However, we do have snacks up the wazzoo although a lot come from Korea, who seem to be overtaking everything right now.
    It was a 3am kick off for me, and having slept through most of the second half in the Spain/France game because I stayed up all night, this time I prepared properly and went to bed for a few hours. Great result and I was so pleased it didn't go to extra time or I would have been up to see the sun rise!

    Well has to be said. I like licorice 👍👏 My mum told me licorice gives you a good run for your money 🏃💶🧻 I do approve of bringing world food to our doors. I also love the fact that the " youth aspect " of the channel is giving the oldies a chance. A fair mix of items in the box. It's green on Greeno, thinking a large vodka or gin could be something to perk it up a tadge. Crisps are fairly standard world, maybe crunch up the Thai curry ones and sprinkle on chilli or just something spicy. Creepy, perfect word, to discribe the pug ugly baby faced monster biscuits 👹Ah, the ginger kack( not a typo😢) Nuff said. The mini waffles seemed OK. May have to check out the company Snack Verse and send my 23yr old little'un a box as a treat. See you in the next video Allan&Family
