[quote=Anonymous]I have tried a few meal services (like blue apron and similar, that was more like truly cooking, and some like factor that were just microwave and eat) and factor was probably my favorite. Food tasted good usually, and it was always pretty healthy and pretty easy to put together . That being said, it was really things like “take this prepared chicken, cut it up, microwave this ready made brown rice packet, add these stir fry veggies that are pre chopped, and add this sauce”. So incredibly fast, mostly already prepared, and IMO expensive for what it was. You can make the exact same meals with a rotisserie chicken, a bag of pre chopped veggies, the same exact packet of microwaveable brown rice, and a sauce, from even an expensive grocery store like Whole Foods, for the same effort and less cost. Once I realized that, I couldn’t justify the cost anymore, but it did make me realize I could make healthy, mostly already prepared, meals from the grocery store myself and that would better and cheaper than any meal kit (not as cheap as cooking everything myself and chopping that broccoli on my own, but, I was looking for time savers!)[/quote]
