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 agree I'm curious if any of the meal prepping services hold accountability for all their waste production from all the packaging especially the plastic. Every company needs to be accountable in all their services, it would be great to find out if any have a partnership with Terracycle or HowToRecycle to effectively manage and spread awareness💚🌎♻️

My #1 reason for trying Hello Fresh / Every Plate was to engage my 6/7 year old with cooking. It takes the fuss out of planning, most of the measuiring, etc and we can get down to basics like knife skills, using tools, safety, and most importantly, spending time together. I'll check out Every PLate and see if there's a price difference from Hello Fresh, but I'm guessing they're the same. I do find that ordering 4 meals 1 week, and then skipping the next saves me about $2.50/serving. I just have to freeze those meats immediately, and plan on eating them the following week.

We've tried all three and prefer Blue Apron. Mainly because it is interesting food and we learned more about cooking good food. We save the recipe cards for future doing it on our own. If we had kids to feed then we might like EveryPlate but it was too simple...all stuff I could make in my sleep and a lot less expensive buying local. Sunbasket is just too exotic for us even and the instructions are very difficult for us old folks with tired eyes.

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.

I just started getting 3 hello fresh dinners each week and most we liked, a couple we would not eat again. The biggest draw is that my teens want to do the cooking and it gets us to sit down and eat together. Something we used to do pre pandemic. Plus I don’t have to meal plan and shop. I will try other kits in the future.

You have to look at not just the portion size, and that some give you only 125g or less in meat and fish. and that many bulk out the meal with cheap items like potatoes, rice or pasta. when you are spending may be up to $5 or £6 for each meal. You need to look at how much cooking does it take, putting on an expensive oven for a small amount of something makes the meal even more expensive to do. You also have to look at each meal and what it has in it there may be items you do not like and you are paying for that. But the Main thing is the total cost of just not being Lazy and going to the supermarket and buying the items yourself cheaper. All you need to do is follow any recipe in any book or offline . this is only 1 meal a day I bet you are still going to that supermarket for the rest of the meals you have so you are saving no time. and if you buy proper amounts of items you will be using over time there will also be less waste in packaging.

I love meal kits but I tried Sunbasket once and both meals were equally disgusting. Would not try again. Also, if you want a really good cheaper meal kit I'd go with dinnerly. They have a much bigger variety then Every Plate and better recipes in my opinion for about the same price

Just an opinion here, but I didn't like Sunbasket. Broccolini is not better than broccoli, arugula is not better than lettuce, kale is not better than spinach, black beans are not better than pinto beans, and so forth. Some folks may have diet preferences though. Their seafood is very good, of course expensive for the portions.

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 KZitem.
@GratiaCountryman
3 жыл бұрын
It’s actually good because you don’t end up with wasted ingredients. And, KZitem recipes often fail. You have to know in advance which KZitemrs 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.
