Not only do they generate trash by requiring a lot of small bags and such for the ingredients, they also create food waste by bundling together ingredients with different expiration times. I spent some time digging around in dumpsters behind a grocery store in Vegas which carries their own meal kit offering. They throw out huge boxes of meal kits with expired meat in them which contain a bunch of food which is good for longer, like rice, herbs, potatoes, etc. It was great for me because its a lot of clean, unexpired food for free but the amount of waste it created blew my mind.
