This was my biggest problem. ~700 kcals/meal is not enough for two guys, especially ones that usually skip either breakfast or lunch.
Plus, it's only three meals a week, so I had to either order out or go to the store anyways, so there wasn't really much point in using the service at all.
- dbg31415 10y agoA friend and I were joking about how small the Blue Apron meals were... so we played a little game where we compared the size of the Blue Apron meal to the amount of free samples we could stuff into a to-go box at Whole Foods without getting caught. The samples won.
- karlshea 10y agoThey were pretty ridiculous. After one meal I was looking around in the refrigerator within an hour, and after another I could have literally eaten another whole portion as soon as I finished. We cancelled after the first week. Now I'm using The Fresh 20, which makes portions for "4", but we usually eat most of it and have some leftovers for a small lunch. I have to actually buy the ingredients but since I needed to go to the store either way it's been working out fine.
