You make food (a competitive, capital intensive, low margin endeavor - all with rotting inventory) then you deliver it (a man hour intensive, operational & insurance nightmare). AND after you do all this, the person looks at their meal and shrugs their shoulders wondering if it was worth the $10. I am not saying Munchery was bad it was just swimming upstream.
- FullyFunctional 8y agoYMMV, but my family relies heavily on Munchery and it's one of those "Silicon Valley" inventions that has made our life better. Generally the food is good and healthy and avoids a lot of waste (time and material). It's all about logistics and I hope they come through the difficult time.

- x0x0 8y agoMunchery cost a lot more than $10. Even 24 months ago when we started buying from them, it was a $10-ish monthly subscription and two meals turned into about $30 delivered. Now it's closer to $40. We've ordered (I just checked!) 170 times. Pretty much twice a week since mid 2016. They deliver pretty good, pretty healthy food that is worlds better than anything frozen that is ready to eat with 5-ish minutes of effort. It's awesome for two working adults.
