Looked into gobble which this article is about... $13.95 for each meal minimal 4 meal order??? I see limited revenue growth long term for them at those prices. The person that can afford that can also order take out any time they wish; or run into whole foods and buy a ready to cook meal for 30% cheaper.
- pavel_lishin 10y agoI've used one of these types of services - I think they're for people who want to cook, but have more money than time. They don't want to spend time shopping, or planning meals - but they still want to use their kitchen and the fancy knives and cookware they bought. It's sort of like a lego kit for your kitchen. You buy a box that comes with instructions and you assemble your Ahoy Matey Pirate Ship™. Compare to just buying a bucket of random lego blocks, or buying a pre-built ship-in-a-bottle. There's definitely a target audience there, I just dunno how big it is, and it's probably limited to large cities.
- pj_mukh 10y agoYea you have that right. And if they can convince a large percentage of these people to use them, they will (hopefully) slowly start heading down-market where I'll be waiting for them ;).
