    Why you forget to include Hello Fresh tho? I thought Hello Fresh and Blue Apron are basically a duopoly and control the market?

    Also what about Amazon Meal Kits?

    Do more of this. It’s a refreshing tangent than usual tech news

      Agreed. During the beginning stages of the pandemic, and most grocery stores were sold out of almost everything, we didn’t miss a beat with Hello Fresh and their meal delivery service. 👍🏻

      Watch the stupid video before complaining. Hello fresh is in there.

      @adilator It’s not. I’ve watched. What do you think I’m stupid commenting before I finished the video??

      Or you better mean Every Plate, which is Hello Fresh’s sister company, but not really Hello Fresh???

    I guess this is a good solution for anyone who is too lazy to go to grocery stores or spend 5 minutes looking up recipes on YouTube.

      It’s actually good because you don’t end up with wasted ingredients. And, YouTube recipes often fail. You have to know in advance which YouTubers are the good ones. Also, the video is a condensed version of the cooking method, and you have to go to a website to get the actual recipe. It isn’t a five minute process. If you do it right, grocery shopping, menu planning and cooking are complex tasks. And, it can be expensive, too.

      These meal kits are cheap and you get a variety of meals sent to you. People would rather spend cash than wasting time running around a grocery store looking for ingredients and also saving time what to fix each day

    Just make sure you recycle plastic resins 1 and 2.

    100% agreed. Every week I order 10 meals. 5 lunch meals from everyplate and I rotate 5 dinner from either hellofresh or home chef. I used to ordered blue apron but the amount of plastic was such a turn off. I canceled after two weeks. But overall, you’re spot on. I love everyplate because their food are tasty and well priced.

    I use all of these and the truth is they are all the same. Just subscribe to the one with the best deal each week. They will all offer you giant discounts time and time again.

    Most amount of paper, bye bye planet

    I’m good thanks I would rather save money and go to the grocery store.

    Problem I had with Everyplate is that too much of the meal is potatoes, rice, or pasta. You can see how they can sell it for less than the others. But the sauces make the items quite tasty, and you can get seafood or steak meals at extra cost.
