I have recently purchased a box from this company, and when it arrived, the box was damaged and one of the chip bags was ripped open. I went to email the customer support, and they got back to be super quick, within a couple hours. They offered to completely replace the chip bag, and apologized for the damaged conditions of my box. I appreciate how absolutely helpful their support team is 🙂

We are family with 6 autistic sons and they love getting this box in the mail each month and trying the new foods! Having picky eaters means new foods can be intimidating but having this practice every month and talking about the country (as well as listening to music from there!) helps to lessen that anxiety. Thanks so much!

This is my first box and i chose Greece! Very good, one of my coworkers actually ordered a bunch of the oregano potatoes chips and blames me for her new craving because she is pregnant. I highly recommend!!

Great concept, disappointing flavors

We love the concept of snacks from around the world! Each box includes a variety of sweet and savory items. We generally like trying new things and enjoy unique flavors, but honestly, we were usually very disappointed by the snacks. Not sure if this is reflective of the particular countries or of UY’s selections. Our favorite thing about getting the box each month was reading the pamphlet of cultural information/trivia! We also liked the toys/games, but UY just announced that those won’t be included anymore. (We are a family of 4 with kids ages 9 and 13, and we are at the end of a year’s subscription to the Yum Yum Box.)

Loved almost everything…We had a hard time with the mastic rose toffee. Only thing in the box that we didn’t like. We loved the oregano chips and the baklava the best. However, I brought the toffee to school for my students. Out of 20, 6 loved the toffee, 4 thought it was ok, and 8 didn’t like it. They also tried the pomegranate jelly candy. Only 1 did not like it. They all said it was better than the toffee!! lol They can’t wait to try something from Germany. 🙂

I honestly only liked one item total out of 4 boxes. Most of the snacks are extremely similar. How many ketchup flavored chips do I need? Not enough variety and not the greatest quality. Very, very disappointed. I will be canceling after next month’s box.

Once a month I get with my Niece, daughter-n-love & my sons gfriend. I started ordering this box for us to try together. It is so fun. We have only tried 2 boxes so far and can’t wait to receive our box from Germany this month. I sure hope the famous hippos are in there. We don’t open it until we are all together. I hope we continue to love them.

My order from Indonesia

Reviewed October 4, 2023
I absolutely loved my first box from Indonesia my favorite thing was the portion size it was very well portioned except for the snacks I love the most of course there’s never enough of that. Though I was very surprised at the portion size was enough I also liked the different flavors different varieties and I also love the best part of the trivia questions and answers and learning what each snack is made with. I’ve tried other companies that put snacks in a box but it doesn’t tell you or give you a description of where the country is from or what type of food you’re exactly eating. Universal Yum‘s do all of that he explains everything and let you know what you’re eating and that’s one of the most important parts of ordering from universal yum! I’m most definitely would highly recommend this to friends and family you can’t go wrong with trying other countries foods. I know I will order again.

My two boys and I have been enjoying the yumm box for a few years now! We look forward to every month! We always eat the savory snacks first and end with the sweet! I do have to say there have been a few snacks we haven’t enjoyed but that’s the part of the fun! We like reading the info booklet as well!!

We love the Yum boxes and look forward to them every month! My kids grab the globe and we find the country. We eat the snacks and learn about the country with the included brochure.

Love Universal Yums, but not the recent changes
Yum Yum Box (Monthly)
Reviewed September 28, 2023
I love and look forward to my monthly box, but I’m not happy with a few changes I’ve seen in 2023. I don’t want non-food items. I subscribe to a snack box, and non-food extras (games, flash cards) will probably end up in my trash. Also, for me, the box is meant to be a treat – for the last few months, there has been an item in each box requiring preparation. I cook a lot, so I’m just not interested in more work. These items are also not what I’d consider a snack either (soup mix, for example?). I still love the snacks, but I’m not liking the recent changes.

Reviewed September 28, 2023
We love receiving our monthly Super Yum Box and have been customers since December 2020. We share with family and friends often and it’s always a hit. Our only “meh” is the recent addition of non-food items. These items do not ever get utilized by our teenagers. We wish we could opt out, as it seems like a waste of money and resources. We would much rather prefer an option to receive a food-only box, considering that is what we signed up for initially.

I love exploring the monthly snacks, but I prefer salty snacks to sweets. Often, I get boxes that are 70% sweets so I end up wasting some snacks. It’d be great to be able to set a preference to have more salty snacks in the mix.

My partner and I love our monthly Super Yum Box! It’s so fun to sit down and go through our box together as a monthly date night tradition. We always have plenty to share (no fighting over treats), a diverse array of food (no all sugar or all salt boxes), and always learn or eat something new (we rarely see a repeat). We’ve been loving the little bonus activities and items. They’re fun without bringing too much clutter to our house. Our annual subscription is about to renew and we can’t wait for another year of international snacks!

Fun, but not very inclusive for vegetarians
Yum Yum Box (Monthly)
Reviewed September 26, 2023
The yum box is always a fun delivery to receive and an exciting food adventure to experience for an at-home date night, but dietary restrictions are not taken into consideration when you sign up for the yum box subscription. As a vegetarian, I always find a few things to try, sometimes even the whole box if the country the box is focusing on is big on vegetarian cuisine. However, in almost every box, there is something I cannot try since gelatin and meat products seem to be in a lot of the snacks chosen. If you’re sharing the box with others who have no dietary restrictions, you’ll really enjoy the full experience every month. For my fellow vegetarians out there, come into it knowing you likely won’t be able to try everything… sometimes even 50% of the box.

My kids love seeing that blue and white box in the mail. I always make them wait until the weekend so the four of us (Mom, Dad, kids) can open it together. We have a system: My eldest daughter, 9, reads aloud (and sometimes sings!) about the snack from the booklet, my other daughter, 6, finds the snack, I record their ratings on the chart and their dad just eats and critiques. After the snacks are done, I give them the trivia questions from the booklet and put the rating card and stickers in my planner. Yes, it’s an event. I love that it’s a fun way to learn about different countries. Plus, there is always a snack we love.
I wish there was an economical way to purchase several boxes for a school club. I teach middle school and it would be fun to create a club about countries around the world and have the snacks once a month.

I got high one night and signed up for a subscription. I immediately canceled the next day, but since I already placed the order I would get one box. Which I thought was fine. When the box came I opened it with my husband and kids, and I’m was amazed! There was a lot of snacks in the box and there was an excellent select of both sweet and savory items. We all enjoyed the box and talking about the country of origin. I’m sold, it’s a great product and we plan on resubscribing.

Don’t miss out on putting smiles on your grandkids faces when they get there box with their name on it and know it something especially for them! Since they live out of state this is my way of letting them know Nana is thinking of them!

We got the subscription as a Christmas gift for our family to share. Each month we get a little surprise box of snacks that we all share together. Now with the inclusion of a drink and lately a toy/activity it’s even more fun. This month’s box, Czech, came with a 3D castle to build while snacking. My 5 year old loved this activity, that and the big bag of monster munch. It really has been one of the best Christmas gifts we have gotten for the family.
