Am I really the only one here who decided to plop down the ten bucks to try it for the bombcast? I've heard naturebox advertised on many of the podcasts I listened to so I decided to try it. There was a sampler pack for "free" (2 dollars in shipping) or get half off (10 bucks) for a standard pack in which you would pick what you wanted. Truth be told, I didn't enjoy it at all. I got some dried fruits and fruit chews which I really didn't care for even though they were pretty well recommended on the site. I've liked dried fruit before but didn't care for these. I will say the Coconut cashews were really good. Can not recommend the service especially at 20 dollars a month for one pack of five.
If by recommended you mean Giant Bomb receives a small sum for each person who signs up and uses the promo code. I don't know if podcast advertising is still purely commission or if they now pay you a paltry amount upfront. Basically podcast are desperate for advertisers because running a successful podcast is surprisingly expensive and companies know this so podcasters get royally fucked. Giant Bomb would be better off pimping their merchandise, memberships, and just simply asking for donations.
Oh, sorry. I meant that the food I had picked for my box had positive reviews on the naturebox website (surprisingly, a few items on the site did actually have negative reviews) and some were under like a top picks category. It just wasn't for me.
