If you have tried one of the meal delivery subscriptions which is your favorite?
**Unless otherwise noted, food arrives ready to be cooked.**
I have done Blue Apron for awhile now … I LOVE it! I love that you can skip if you want, and somewhat pick your 3 meals (there are 6 choices each week, but sometimes you can’t do certain combinations). The food has always been fresh (one time I was missing an onion so they gave me a credit, very nice customer service). I got my parents started doing it, because they have very different food tastes and my mom hates cooking lol my dad loves it! I also love how it got me to try new foods and dishes! 🙂 I’d definitely recommend Blue Apron!
I’ve been using Freshly, I love them! They always have tons of great deals, it’s already prepared, fresh ingredients pre-packaged meals. I like the others, but sometimes it’s nice to have gourmet meals that I don’t even have to prepare.
I need to add Freshly on here! There are so many that it’s so hard to keep up!
Thank you. This is very helpful. If you ever go this again, would it be possible to add a column for if you cook the food vs it comes finished ? That’s something I didn’t realize was happening in some of these boxes now.
If I can find a better way to format it, I totally will. So far I think it’s just Freshly and Meal Time Box that send it prepared.
I did not know about Freshly. Thanks. Maybe a google sheet (Excel like) that you can plug into the page? Just a thought.
That’s what this is. But I only have a limited width on this page and adding more columns just doesn’t give me enough room. I mean it does but I can only get like two words in per sentence.
It does look really good in my spreadsheet though. LOL!!!
Do you plan on doing more of these comparison charts? This is super helpful! Would you have enough options to do one for all the “time of the month” boxes?
Is there anyway of finding out where each company is shipping their food from? It would be helpful for those in other areas of the US to know, so as to avoid having the food spoil before it reaches there home.
I am not 100% sure. Some of the food delivery services ship from different warehouses depending on where in the country you live. If they ship to your location they *should* guarantee it’s not going to spoil.
