For me, that's barely cheaper than eating out, if at all. The portions are always big enough for two people - unhealthily so.

  For us, sit-down meals for two at a restaurant were usually at least $50 including tip. I'm comparing Blue Apron specifically to a sit-down meal because for us the point of dining out was to relax and spend time together - something that cooking at least three meals a week together gets us to do. It also gets us to try ingredients we wouldn't normally consider. That's just why it works for us, specifically! Definitely not for everybody. I don't work for them and the only stock I own is chicken stock. :)

  They always keep right around 700 calories, which is pretty healthy for a dinner.

    That's not the point. It means they are delivering the same amount of food (2 X half a portion), for pretty much the same price, minus the enjoyment of eating out. And apparently, they take about as much to make as a regular meal from the store. EDIT: I think we are talking at cross purposes - I meant restaurant meals are usually plenty for two people.

      Ah yes, I thought you were referring to the home meals as having two servings.
