It seems like the craze nowadays is subscription box services, and I totally understand why. It's a subscription to a box full of your favorite stuff delivered directly to your doorstep at the same time every month. It's exciting not knowing exactly what you'll get in each box so it's like a little surprise gift to yourself.
As this trend grows in popularity, so does the amount of boxes being created. There's not a single person left out of this subscription frenzy. If you like to cook a lot at home, there's a box for that. Do you own a pet? There's a box for them. Are you a beauty guru? There's a box for you. What about loving video games, because there's a box for that too. Anything you could possibly be interested in, there is more than likely a box for it.
I love Korean culture and I was constantly hearing about all their tasty and interesting cuisine. So my interest in this made me curious to find out if there was a box dedicated to any Korean items. As I typed into Google what I was searching for, thinking that it was unlikely that someone would create a box for my very specific interest, I came across SnackFever. I thought I had found heaven.
SnackFever is a monthly subscription box full of snacks that are popular in Korea right this very second. They offer three different sized boxes at different price levels. These include a mini box starting at $11, an original box at about $18, and a recently added deluxe box that costs around $38. Now, compared to other snack subscription boxes, this is pretty dang cheap. The best part is free two-day shipping on all boxes! You really can't beat that. Another nice attribute is that if you're running tight on money one month, you can just skip that box and pick up right where you left off for the next month with no problem.
As fun little bonuses, they also offer limited-edition boxes here and there in addition to the regular monthly ones and these are themed for a specific Korean holiday, a box filled with just ramen, or even a whole box solely consisting of spicy foods. Also, if you found a snack in one of the boxes, or an entire box itself that you can't live another day without, their website offers past snacks and boxes that you can buy on their own whenever you have a craving.
Not to mention, as of recently, they just started partnering up with different Korean entertainment companies (like Viki and YG) to fill the boxes with awesome swag. Also as of late, they have been doing huge giveaways curated for k-pop fans like myself that have so far included BTS, EXO, and BIGBANG.
Could this get any better? The answer is yes, because another amazing feature of SnackFever is their incredibly personable and accommodating team. They love to hear suggestions from their subscribers on what to put in the boxes every month, and if you have a problem with anything they are just a quick email away. If you like to see the faces and the behind the scenes of who exactly is hand-packing your box, you can follow them on their social media sites like Snapchat, Instagram, and Facebook which they consistently update.
They just celebrated their 1-year anniversary this past July, and being a subscriber since last August, I can confidently tell you that they have come a very long way within a year. So I'm here to let you know that if you are interested in trying some delicious Korean eats for cheap without ever having to leave the comfort of your home, then I would highly suggest you give SnackFever a try. I really don't think you'll be disappointed, and you'll be getting to try foods that you never knew existed and you might come to find that you thoroughly enjoy them.
