Cheap meals with low quality ingredients sitting in a warm box being driven around all day in some random persons car didn't appeal to people?

  Sprig's ingredients are actually quite high quality and delicious.

    Which is probably why their volume is 6x Spoonrocket's.

      can you show us something to back this statement? I'm really curious

        From the article: "Sprig had looked into acquiring SpoonRocket, but decided against it and is now doing 6X the meal volume SpoonRocket did in SF."
        • ttam 11y ago
          Right, in SF, which is different from 6x overall volume. SpoonRocket also served the East Bay, which Sprig doesn't. Sprig also serves Palo Alto and Chicago, which SpoonRocket doesn't.

      Edit: Meant to reply to a child comment, sorry!

  No, that's not it. As mentioned in the article, Sprig is still making sales. How long it can survive at current unit economics is a different story.

    Let's chat again about it when oil reaches $100 again

      Hopefully electric cars (or bikes) will be cheap enough by then :)
