I enjoy finding out about new sites, apps and services from blogs as much as I hope you do! Today I partnered with Thrive Market to tell you all about a new way to get all your favorite natural products for 25-50% less than what you’ll find in traditional retail stores — all delivered straight to your door! A little bonus: KERF readers get a special free jar of Justin’s Almond Butter! Thrive Market is the largest seller of non-GMO products with over 4,000 items from brands that you already recognize and love! Prices are 25-50% off of retail, so if you buy a lot of these brands, it’s worth the membership cost to join.
I ordered a bunch of natural snacks that sounded delicious, and had a picnic with a few friends one afternoon to share them around.
Here are our thoughts:
Inka Corn – Loved the super crunch on this. It reminded us of popcorn kernels that come out half popped.
Kale Crunch – These won best of show! The cheesy taste was spot on, and the kale was deliciously crispy.
World Peas – BBQ – I’ve had crunchy chickpeas before, but this was my first time having crunchy peas other than the wasabi ones. These were great! Loved the BBQ flavor too – slightly sweet-savory.
Brussel Bytes – These were close behind the kale chips, but since they did retain a little of that brussel taste they didn’t take the top spot.
Mary’s Mini Grahams – These are gluten-free, GMO free, and vegan and Mazen loves them!
Bean and Rice Chips – These are also gluten-free, vegan, and corn free so they’re a great option for those with food restrictions. I thought they were great! Just like a ‘regular’ chip but with 4 grams of fiber and protein. Mazen loves these too!
Falafel Chickpeas – Loved these! Crunchy, high in protein and fiber, and great spice.
Health Warrior Chia Bars – These are an old favorite I had to re-order. They are also a Virginia product! The coconut flavor is the best, and they are the perfect portion size for a little snack.
Thrive Market keeps prices low with a membership fee much like your big box stores for $59 a year. This might seem high at first, but if you truly eat a lot of natural foods or prefer natural beauty, baby, pet and home products, then I’m sure you’d get your money back in just a few orders. It breaks down to about $5 a month, so if you’re a natural foods enthusiast, it’s worth joining. And good news – Thrive Market offers free shipping for all orders over $49!
Thrive Market allows you to search by your Values too, so if you’re eating a special diet you can easily narrow down the choices to only what you need:
And to give back, for every paid membership, Thrive Market
Check out all they have to offer here, and you’ll get that free jar of Justin’s Almond Butter through the link as promised!

Jenny says
My sister-in-law was talking about Thrive Market the other week. I am always looking for new snack ideas for my daughter and would love to save some money on them.

Love Justin’s and I’m super obsessed with the fall that seems to be happening around you! In Arizona we kind of by pass fall and go straight to winter, the trees are so pretty in your photos!

I caution anyone to try ThriveMarket. I thought I would be really in to them. They stated no charge in the first thirty days. Try to cancel your membership and you CAN’T…I had to call my bank to stop the additional charges on my account. When I spoke with my bank I was told that this is a longstanding problem with the company. Buyer Beware.
Kath, I love your blog since CalorieKing. I am a RD as well. Please take no offense to my comments. Just letting people know of my experience.
KathEats says
Thanks for sharing your experience. I hope this isn’t the case! I’ll double check with Thrive on the cancellation policy and will report back.

I’m sorry to hear that you had an unpleasant experience with Thrive Market. As part of our membership process, we provide a free 30 day trial membership which begins when the first order is placed. All trial members are welcome to cancel the trial within the 30 days if they are not interested in continuing, by either emailing us a cancellation request or calling us directly.

I’m sorry if this information was unclear or if you had trouble going through the cancellation process. I will email you momentarily for a more personalized response.

I REALLY wish they were in Canada. I love the values they have–especially for paleo. They should have one for low carb as well!
Amanda says
I’ve never tried Thrive Market but it looks pretty cool. Brussel bites sound amazing!!
Emily says
I’m going to get a membership for my SIL for Christmas…she will save a ton of $$ with all of her organic products. Thanks for sharing!
KathEats says
A membership would make a great gift!

Hey Kath, I have been following your blog for several years and your Mom’s also. Your Mom even invited me to write an article for hers, lol. Not being nosey, just observant, but do you have a new ring on your left hand? If so, congratulations. I love your blog and Mazen is the cutest, I have 2 granddaughters his age, so fun!! Look forward to meeting your friend!!
KathEats says
My, my you are observant!! This post was actually put on hold for a long time, so these photos were actually taken last fall, hence the tree leaves and the rings : ) My left hand is currently bare!
Faith says
I have wanted to order from Thrive Market as I have heard rave reviews about it! It makes shopping for healthy foods easy, since it is shipped to you!
I definitely want to try the Kale Crunch!
