Super Yum Box (Monthly)

Reviewed by Caitlin on April 24, 2024

I’ll start off with something good which is the box just being cool overall and learning about other countries. This is only our second box and we decided to pay $11 for expedited shipping (1-3 business days). April 18th it shipped and it should have arrived April 22nd because it was being delivered through USPS, so Saturday is a business day. I email Universal Yum and the lady tells me they are still within the 1-3 business days, because she’s not counting the Saturday. I’ll pretend to be dumb of course just to be nice and give them the benefit of the doubt. Well, today is April 23rd so I call USPS to figure out what’s going on. That’s when I find out Universal Yum charged us the $11 for expedited shipping but DID NOT expedite the package at all, they put it in regular mail delivery which is up to 8 days. I email and the lady then says they’ve processed the refund…. So from the looks of it they knew they did not expedite it from when I first emailed and gave me the whole loop around. I could care less if it’s refunded now, it’s disrespectful that a business meant for learning and fun decides to scam people and then act like they are ‘within the deadline still’. As if, we will take our business else where.

Reply from Universal Yums

Hello and thank you for sharing your experience with us. We are so sorry that it was not a positive one for you. Our expedited shipping is an option that we offer for the first box of an order. It looks like there was a processing error in our system and your box did not get correctly flagged as expedited so it shipped via a different service. We are so very sorry about that. We have reported this to our operations team to look into so this will not happen again.

When you select expedited shipping at checkout it does note that the delivery window is 1-3 business days. We apologize for any confusion there was regarding that. Our system does have your order marked as expedited so there was no indication it had not been sent that way.  Once you let our support team know that UPS confirmed it was not expedited, they provided you with a refund for the shipping fee.

Again, we are so sorry for all of this. We do hope you enjoy the box when it arrives.

Overall satisfied.

I’ve gotten a few boxes already and so far my favorite has been France! But the two most recent boxes, Baltics and Ukraine, were not good at all and it seems like there has been a nosedive in quality. I am curious if any sort of taste testing is done before deciding what’s going in a box.

Reply from Universal Yums

Thank you for being with us, we appreciate you giving the boxes a try. We are happy to hear that you loved your France box. There is taste testing of all of the products before they are featured in the boxes! We understand that not all of the boxes are going to be everyone’s favorite so we do hope you like your next box more than the last two.

I’m several months into getting these boxes. It’s not all great– everyone has different taste buds and preferences so the snacks vary accordingly– but there’s been something in every box that I really like. I really enjoyed the espresso chocolate bar from Poland, the aioli potato chips and popcorn truffles from France, and almost everything from the Baltics box! The Ukrainian box wasn’t really for me, and I briefly considered pausing my subscription for a while, but this past box was a reminder of how much I enjoy universal yums. Honestly half of the fun (for me) is reading about each country as I try the snacks. Looking forward to next month!

Yum Yum Box (Monthly)

Reviewed by Carmen on April 17, 2024

My box arrived today and it was not sealed. It had never been sealed. There is no tape anywhere on the box, so this didn’t happen in transit. It was shipped to me, changed hands numerous times, not sealed. I contacted support and was told “as long as the items inside haven’t been opened or punctured, they’re still perfectly safe to enjoy!” Unfortunately, it is entirely possible for something to have been tampered with without being opened or obviously punctured. There is nothing safe about it and no way would I allow my family, or anyone for that matter, to eat food that has been shipped across the county not even taped closed.
I have very much enjoyed these boxes since we started getting them. It’s a great concept and a great time for the family. I have told friends and coworkers about it and encouraged them to subscribe. But I am extremely disappointed in their response to this issue.

We’ve been getting the Yum Yum boxes for around 7 months now and have mostly enjoyed the snacks (some really weird ones but it’s all part of the fun!).

We are so happy to hear you are enjoying your boxes and are even having fun trying the more unique yums! During the winter months we do select to feature mostly European boxes.

I really enjoyed the boxes at first but I got my subscription when it was still including the game and there was a balance of sweet and salty snacks. Once the switch happened of my yum yum box not including the mini game and now all the snacks are sweet/mostly chocolate, I don’t like the boxes anymore since I’m more of a salty gal. My family also doesn’t prefer sweet so now we mostly leave the boxes to give away the snacks to other people so I will continue my yearly subscription but won’t be renewing for this reason. It’s a great concept I think it’s just hard to please all tastes.

Reply from Universal Yums

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. Our team works very hard to balance salty and sweet in each box. Some months to tend to lean sweet depending on what is popular in the featured country. We have some countries coming up that should have more salty items for you to enjoy and we hope you continue through those!

To my great surprise, the Ukraine box is probably my favorite yet. The rolled cookies with baked milk inside are delicious. The thick chocolate covered wafer bar was great. The pear flavored jelly candy in the fruit jellies is sublime. There’s tons more items we haven’t tried yet, but I just have to say one thing: Wasabi chips!!! These things are fantastic, and take the box over the top and out of the ballpark. How do we not have these in America. Soooooo delish!

I was super excited for the Ukrainian box as I’m Ukrainian. These snacks are not Ukrainian. Adjika is not Ukrainian, it’s Georgian. Wasabi chips? Really?! We don’t do chilis or wasabi for spice, we do horseradish. Then there was the Sponge cake with Condensed milk. You say in your booklet that Condensed milk is a staple in Ukraine, it isn’t!! It’s a staple in Russia, which is NOT the same thing. I’ve never encountered these snacks in Ukraine. It makes me wonder what other snack boxes of your are inaccurate. A bit of basic research would be greatly appreciated.

Reply from Universal Yums

Thank you for your feedback regarding the Ukrainian box. We are so sorry for any disappointment you had in it. All of the items in the box are directly from Ukraine. While each item may not be the most popular brand in Ukraine the items themselves are common items in the country. Our team does there best to feature popular snacks from each country and sometimes the flavors are not the traditional flavor. When we do feature European countries some of the flavors are common in more than one country as flavors are often shared all around the world.

We will be sure to pass a long this feedback to our team.

As a military veteran, I have traveled all over the world. Ive been to most of the states in North America. Ive been to Iraq, and ate and drank foods from all of them.
So, I wanted my daughter to experience snacks from different countries. And, she loves trying new foods. Just like me!
Universal yums is a great, and affordable option for that. We also try different foods from our local area.
She is always asking when “our box” is coming.
I just recently upgraded to the next plan up because she loves it so much.
I think a good idea would be to send snacks from other states from the country customers live in. Reason being, for example, Soft drinks from Virginia aren’t available in California, and vice versa. And, they taste different in different areas of the US.
We will continue to be customers for a long time to come!!!

We are looking forward to Ukraine, and the coming months of our monthly subscription to the Super Yums box. Oh! I must mention that the little pamphlet is a great hit, and the ratings chart too. It’s much more fun than just eating a snack. I think that’s why we were not upset with France not having much we enjoyed. It was fun arguing and discussing the merits of each treat. I was honestly shocked that they did not love the mustard chips though. I even saved them aside, for when the guys had sandwiches during a football game, and they tossed them aside and said they were gross! Looking forward to Ukraine arriving in a couple of weeks!

I’ve been a subscriber for about 6 months. There are some delightful items that truly represent their respective countries. But it’s heavily skewed towards sweets rather than savory.

I purchased one year but I’m not sure if I’ll extend beyond that.

I bought a 3 month subscription as a gift for my son. I changed my mind IMMEDIATELY after submitting my banking info, and decided I should have gotten a different size box. There was no way to change it after finalizing it, so I canceled the subscription IMMEDIATELY and submitted a new order. I fully expected an immediate cancelation would be honored. Nope. I was charged and customer service (reachable by email only) said there’s nothing they could do. As far as I’m concerned that’s terrible customer service. Never again. Will cancel this after the 3 months.

Reply from Universal Yums

We are so sorry for any confusion there was regarding cancellation. When an order is cancelled any boxes paid for will still ship, which is why when you cancelled the original order the box was still shipped and you were not refunded for it. Our customer support team assisted you with making sure the first order was cancelled but at the time they assisted you that box had already shipped and they could not stop it and that is why a refund could not be provided. We see that the box was delivered and we hope that it was still able to be enjoyed.

Paid for first time, chose France, and just received my yum yum box: advertises 10-12 but 8 snacks and 1 of their own. What a rip off as this is false advertising. This is my first and last one. Already canceled my subscription. 8 items + 1 and this bag from them states, “Inside you’ll find the most extraordinary mysterious and incredible delicious teeny Yums in the world.” That is nothing associated with France nor is it anything I know I can tell past expiration that they are trying to unload as a “special gift.” As stated in their site: “Products will contain at least the quantity of snacks guaranteed in the product listing. A snack is defined as an individually wrapped piece of food of any weight or volume. Due to the varying nature of the products, there is no guarantee that a particular product will be included in a given box, regardless of the products displayed in the listed image.” Universal Yums I’m glad I didn’t buy a year subscription and only month to month so I only wasted money on one month. Feel bad for everyone else you have ripped off. Be cautious people you cannot be refunded on items you already purchased including a yearly subscription of being shorted items.

Reply from Universal Yums

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are so sorry for any confusion there has been regarding the amount of items in your box. All of the products in each of our boxes are sourced directly from the featured country, including the smaller candies in the Yum Bag. Each different type of candy in the Yum bag does count toward the total number of items in the box. So, if there were 8 items outside of the bag and then 2 unique items in the back that is 10 total for the box. If you are missing any item that is listed in the booklet, please contact our customer support team for assistance, they will be happy to help!

My partner, his two daughters (11 and 14) myself, and if any of their older brothers or friends are over, they join in too, and we all have so much fun with these boxes. The girls insist we all try each item, at the same time, and take the first bite on the count of 3. Some of the snacks that sound like they would be awful, are surprisingly delicious and others that you’d think would be tasty are weird. It’s fun to watch everyone’s faces as we try to decide if we like egg flavored popcorn or some other odd (to us) flavored treat. It’s a good source of family time and we all get excited when there is a new box on the porch. Some items are big hits others are crazy misses. But the whole process of the box is just a lot of fun.

Time to say goodbye

We have LOVED the monthly subscription from Universal Yums for almost four years. We started the tradition of opening the box together in 2020 as a family and recording our reactions to each item- a fun family night when the world was shut down. We continued through the next 4 years upgrading our subscription and giving it as gifts.

We noticed in the third year that we were revisiting the same countries as the first two years with few additions of snacks. That equates to half of the 42 boxes we’ve bought being repeats. We loved Yum Box so much we held out in hopes that a new year would mean a new lineup.

Alas, the first two boxes of the year had us revisiting Scandinavia for the third time and Poland for the second. We hate to say goodbye, but can’t justify the cost any longer when the boxes are regurgitations of years past. If we hear of new countries being introduced we will be running back to Universal Yums to resubscribe.

I have been an annual subscriber since last year for my kids and a gift subscription for my sister’s kids. We schedule a video chat and we enjoy going through the boxes together and ranking the items!

First the great: the materials provided regarding information for each country/box theme is excellent. Whoever puts these together is the reason this stands out from other snack boxes. They are funny and informative.

The ok- the snacks and variety. I realize it is probably difficult for a number of reasons for certain types of snacks not to work in this context. But there are a lot of chips/crisps and gummies. So I’m not sure how accurate a true representation of top popular snacks for a given country.

The poor. I deal with a lot of shipping for work, so hey- stuff happens in the mail. However in the past year between my kids subscription and the gift subscription for my sisters kids (24 boxes total)- 4 have gone missing in shipping. Which means sometimes the box we were supposed to receive is sold out by the time they ship us an alternative. Additionally the shipping times are very inconsistent. Sometimes my sister and I will receive our boxes 2 or 3 weeks apart. And since we do this as a monthly cousins video play date it is hard to schedule (case in point- she received their Holiday Box early last week- a week and a half later, ours hasn’t even shipped yet).

I signed up for another year, but these frustrations make it a bit difficult to justify the cost.

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.

We’re In It For the YUMS

Super Yum Box (Monthly)

Reviewed by Administrative on 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.

Incredible fun

My husband and I are long-time subscribers of Universal Yums and we love it! The anticipation every month brings us so much joy and I love sharing new snacks. We have found a few that we so addictive, we order from the Universal Yums store just to keep them stocked. The Super Yum box is a great value and makes a wonderful gift.

Really fun monthly surprise, but I wish I could customize my taste profile

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.

A fun way to explore the world!

We love this subscription! It’s been a fun monthly date night for my husband and I. We love to travel but don’t get to as often as we would like to with little kids so this is a good way to learn about other countries and taste their snacks!

Best Monthly Date Night In!

Super Yum Box (Annual)

Reviewed by Camille on September 28, 2023

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!

Excellent subscription

I loved everything about the box. The snacks are good. It’s so much fun trying the snacks from different countries. I look forward to see what comes every month.

Fun, but not very inclusive for vegetarians

Yum Yum Box (Monthly)

Reviewed by April on 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.

A Family Affair

Yum Yum Box (Annual)

Reviewed by Iasha on September 26, 2023

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.

For the last 3 years I’ve purchased a monthly Yum box for each of my 3 granddaughters (10, 12 & 14). It is still a highlight of the month for the three sisters! I’m sure when I ask them this year if they want them again, I’ll get a resounding YES!

My nine year old twin grandchildren absolutely love this gift! They look forward to their monthly goodies and learn about the country they come from! My daughter said it’s the best gift to give someone! I did the yearly subscription and when it’s up I will definitely be renewing it! 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.

So much fun!
