SnackNation wants to bring those awesome office snacks to your home

Add as a preferred source on Google

You might not work at Uber, LinkedIn, or a tech company that boasts pantries and fridges that would rival most commercial kitchens, but that doesn’t mean you can’t snack as though you do. SnackNation, who has provided snacks to thousands of offices across the country since early 2015, is now bringing those same snacks to your doorstep in the firm’s first direct-to-consumer offering.

Promising to offer those of you at home the same “healthy snack curation and discovery experience” as it offers those in the workplace, SnackNation is staying true to its mission of “supporting increased health, productivity, and happiness.” While this initially manifested itself in the provision to office denizens of snacks that were great tasting and great for you, SnackNation Market now allows families everywhere to join the party.

“Today’s launch represents a giant step in our mission to make healthy snacks more accessible to everyone,” said SnackNation CEO and co-founder Sean Kelly. “We’ve spent the last two years perfecting the SnackNation experience for the office, working directly with the best tasting, most innovative snack brands to help our members discover their new favorite healthy snacks. With SnackNation Market, we’re now poised to make the SnackNation experience available to healthier kitchens and pantries across the U.S.”

Given the prevalence of snacking as a culinary habit in the U.S. (apparently, millennials snack at least three days a day), ensuring that those little meals are as healthy as possible is key to keeping the population in its best shape. As such, SnackNation aims to deliver only health-conscious options, without sacrificing taste. By way of ongoing taste surveys and panels, SnackNation seeks to predict snacking trends, find new offerings, and consistently deliver exciting boxes month after month.

SnackNation Market home customers can either build a custom snack box, or choose one of the company’s pre-sourced boxes that include popular items like Dang Coconut Chips and Field Trip Jerky. And no matter what your dietary restrictions may be, SnackNation has you covered with categories including vegan, gluten free, and more.

And best of all, for every SnackNation home box the company sends out, it also donates a meal to a hungry family thanks to a partnership with Feeding America. And for every SnackNation office box shipped, the company donates ten meals to a family in need. Already, SnackNation is on track to donate one million meals over the course of the next few months.

So if you’ve been looking for a way to spice up your snacking routine, you may just want to join the SnackNation.

Apple appears to be preparing a much broader push into smart-home hardware, with several new products in development as the company looks to expand beyond the HomePod mini and Apple TV, according to a 9To5Mac report.

The roadmap includes refreshed versions of both existing products, a new smart-home hub with a display, a larger HomePod update, and eventually Apple's first dedicated smart-home security devices. The information comes from recent reporting summarized by 9to5Mac, which notes that Siri's long-awaited AI upgrades could remove one of the obstacles that has held back new Home products.

Lutron just made it easier to control your smart home without touching your phone
Smart home voice control usually means buying yet another speaker or hub. Lutron and Sonos found a simpler fix: use the speaker you probably already own.

If you’ve lost count of how many remotes and apps you juggle between just to dim a light or skip a song, I have something for you. Lutron just gave its Caseta smart home lineup a new shortcut, letting you control lights, shades, and Sonos playback with your voice alone.

For anyone who is catching up, Caseta is Lutron's do-it-yourself smart lighting system. It’s built around a small hub that basically talks to switches, dimmers, and plugs over a radio signal (instead of Wi-Fi), making it easier to manage the entire setup. While the company has worked alongside Sonos for a while, voice control was the one piece still missing from that partnership. That changes now.
