I suspected blue apron would fail.
i did try it - and i had two major annoyances:
1. Wasteful Packaging - seemed like a waste of materials / cooler / all the plastic containers. (imagine 10,000s of these shipped everywhere and ending up in dumpsters)
2. I still have to cook! Im paying these guys more than i have to for basic ingredients and i STILL HAVE TO WASTE TIME and COOK! Where is the convenience?
Most of the people in our circles tried it for fun and recipes, 1-2-3 months then bam most quit.
This business model is a total failure. Local grocery stores did start carrying meal kits. But what i REALLY MISS is the guacamole kit from TJ! I wonder why TJ REALLY stopped carrying it...
That said thanks VCs for "free" food!
