The thing is that model can be solved with a simple rescipe app that tells you what to buy and how to make it. A lot of grocery stores even have pickup.

- Klathmon 9y agoI'm not saying it's impossible to do any other way, but for me it was perfect. I could download some recipes online, then go buy the stuff. But then I end up with a whole jar of hoisin sauce that I'll never use again because I didn't really like it, or 2x the ground chicken that I don't know what to do with now. With the "recipe in a box" style things, they give you what you need, AND how to make it. I used it like a trial. Of the food I got over the like 6 total times I got it, I liked about 10 of the recipes (they give you 3 meals with each box), and we continue to make about 4 of them on a regular basis. The "regular" ones we now go to the grocery store for, because now we know how much to get, what we can use it for, how long it will store, and where to get it. I'm sad it sounds like this might not be a sustainable business model, as it was a really nice thing for us, and we do want to do it again at some point. I guess the closest "traditional" thing to it would be like going to a cooking class. But this was cheaper, at home, and had much more variety.
