The Cravory is a cookie shop located in San Diego. They also offer a tasting box subscription, which allows you to try their six flavors of the month. This is my second month trying The Cravory, and I liked the cookies a lot both months. However, I have canceled my subscription for two reasons.
One reason has nothing to do with The Cravory. The cookies are shipped fresh out of the oven via Priority Mail. With the current weather, though, my delivery was delayed and fresh cookies lose their awesomeness when they sit in a post office somewhere for an extra few days. So I realized I needed to put the subscription on hold anyway before they arrived.
The reason I am canceling, though, is that I specifically contacted them before signing up because I'm a vegetarian. They have a few recipes with bacon included and I'm not willing to pay as much as I do for bacon cookies. They promised it wouldn't be an issue and I even spoke highly of their customer service in my last review. So when they sent out their recipes for the month and one included bacon, I wasn't worried. They had promised not to send me bacon and I figured they would either send two of something or another flavor from their signature line. Sadly, they did not. They sent me a cookie with bacon. That's just unacceptable.

The Cravory Taster Box Review (January)
I have to admit that I love cookies. A lot. So naturally subscribing to The Cravory's Teaser Box made sense, but I spent a long time debating this with myself. Could any cookie really be worth what amounted to more than $2 a piece? Still, I figured I had to try.
Note: As a vegetarian, I was a little concerned that one of their signature flavors includes bacon. However, I contacted them and they were quick to note on my account not to send us any recipes including bacon. I appreciate that kind of customer service.
The cookies are made fresh in San Diego and then packaged and shipped to wherever you are. It took two days and they arrived on what's been the coldest day this winter so far. After sitting on my porch for the better part of the day in temperatures well below zero, I was worried that I wouldn't get the full experience from these cookies. Not to fear - they still tasted great!
