Meal Delivery Companies with Chris Baccus – Ep 60
In this episode of the Dads Toolbox we had the chance to bring back Chris Baccus of Sustainable Dad to spend some time with us talking about meal delivery services and his experiences using a number of them!
Chris Baccus spent about a month reviewing a number of the main meal delivery services for his own website. He looked at six meal delivery services including Blue Apron, Plated, Sun Basket, Gobble, Green Chef and The Purple Carrot. You can read more about his experiences over at Sustainable Dad.
Chris Baccus mentioned that he found that most of these programs would cost about $60 for a week of meals. Many of the meals were a bit “adventurous” when it comes to family meals, but for Chris Baccus and his wife these meals were a great fit. You pick from 5 or 6 options, they show up about in a few days.
In making the meals he found that most took about 30-45 minutes though he did say that Blue Apron meals did on average take over an hour to make the meals.
With all of these services you typically will get 2 meals free when you first sign up.
Chris Baccus said the meal portions for the most part were filling. Sun Basket was one that provided a lot of food with each meal that you ordered. Gobble was one that he found that the portions were quite small.
Chris mentioned that if you are a big meat eater, you will find that the meat provided in these will be small.
If you are not a large chef, Chris Baccus mentioned that the companies give you all of the ingredients and instructions that you need to be able to make the meals. He did say that you should not get discouraged if you do not get food that looks exactly like the picture. He said that you do need to have some familiarity with cooking to be able to make these meals, but he said that these will allow you to expand your ability to cook different types of food.
Does this sound good to you, here are some deals for you to try them out for yourself:
* Get 3 Meals Free from Sun Basket! Fresh organic ingredients and easy recipes delivered, with Paleo, Gluten-free and Vegetarian options.
Have you ever used these meal delivery services? If so , what were your thoughts?
