My first Mystery Box by Cooking Panda is LOADED! I received a huge variety of snacks, breakfast items, desserts, and drinks, and even cooking items such as sauces and seasonings. Some of them are new to me, while others are healthier and guilt-free versions of classic food items. My favorite item in the box would have to be the raw honey! It’s packed with antioxidants and antibacterial properties, making it a healthier alternative to sugar. It’s also a versatile ingredient! I lie, it’s the cookies mix. No – it’s the Slap Ya Mama that I’ve been adding to homemade pimento cheese dip. It’s so hard to pick a favorite. I also liked the sauces they included in the box. From savory to spicy, they are an effortless way to add unique flavors to daily dishes. Whether you are a foodie or you simply want to stock up on items for your pantry, this would be a good subscription to try. Even excluding the price of the sunflower butter and the bottle opener and sleeve, this box’s total retail value is already $226 which is even higher than the promised retail value for the box! The amount of goodies in this box is really unbelievable for the price, and I can’t imagine most people not getting way more value than what they paid for this box!
