Technically Whole Foods does not themselves do delivery (it's Instacart), while Amazon actually does (Fresh)... Amazon's also working on grocery pickup, which seems perfect for meal kits.
- urethrafranklin 9y agoOkay, looks like that is true today, but Whole Foods was doing home delivery before Instacart even existed, at least in NYC. Amazon Fresh outsources their actual delivery, as well, so no points for that one.

In my neighborhood there's an Amazon delivery truck that drops off Amazon bags by people who have Amazon uniforms on... Perhaps they're 1099, but for all intents and purposes it is Amazon doing the delivery.
