Clever Find: Peckish Healthy Snacks Sent to Your Desk

7 January 2013 Leave a Comment

So, how is your new year’s resolution to “eat clean” going? Probably not so hot around 3 or 4 pm, if like me, your energy level – and attention span – has you wishing the day was over. But noooooo. There’s still a mountain of things to do, errands to run and calls to return. Among other pressing matters.

Clearly, I need a snack, a picker-upper, a little edible energy. The easy fix is to pick up something easy & fast from the pantry or the vending machine. And we all know what hazards that holds. Those carb-filled, sugar-filled, fat-filled and nutritionally void foods are the ones calling our name at that hour. Because they will, undoubtedly, fix that sugar low. For a few minutes at least. And at what cost?

We are all smarter than that. We know better. We know about the dangers of saturated fats, and sugar and all those other white foods. But, how do we avoid them when at 4:00pm our body is saying “Feed me. Anything. Just give me something so that I can think…” We can avoid those cravings by outsmarting them and being prepared. Like with Peckish, a healthy snack subscription service that will deliver delicious and good-for-you snacks right to you desk.

Peckish is meant to primarily appeal to office working professionals. But, as a professional working from home, I see the need too. Receiving already packaged and measured snack rations means that I don’t have to spend the time to source, prepare and measure all the ingredients that go into similarly healthy snacks.

I recently received my sample box of Peckish snacks (thank you Peckish!) and I am appetizingly pleased. Three snacking choices (to last a week) arrived with a nutrition card that describes portion size, ingredients, nutrients and calories. Verdict: Delicious and satisfying. And I like mixing the packs for variety.

For $14.99, you will receive a choice of healthy snacks (See the delicious selection here) at your desk weekly, every two weeks or monthly (you can pause or cancel at any time). These portion controlled wholesome snacks are prepared from the highest quality organic foods as approved bynutritionists. The ingredients are minimally processed with NO trans-fats, NO partially hydrogenated oils, NO high fructose corn syrup and No artificial sweeteners, flavors or colors.

A great way to start the New Year productively, I’d say!
