Just cancelled. I have eaten 10 meals in their vegan plan (have my last 2 still in the fridge waiting to be prepared). Out of the 10, only 2 would be worth eating again, although I'm not particularly excited about either of them. The food seems tasteless to me, relying on gloopy sauces of unknown origin for whatever flavor there might be. The recipes are more pretentious than delicious. Example: falafel made with green peas instead of chickpeas. Really? It was underwhelming and made me want to get some real falafel somewhere. The recipes assume assume the customer is experienced enough in the kitchen to figure out what to do (e.g., "in a large pot"; what's large? Why not say "2 qt or larger"?) but apparently incapable of crafting a meal plan on their own. Who exactly is their target market? People with cooking skills who are too dense to figure out what to eat tonight? And if you think you'll be inspired to reuse the recipes on your own later, think again. All the flavor is in the mystery sauces they provide; the recipes I received are pretty useless without them. Oh, and how can they constantly provide vegan meals at over 1000 calories per serving? It's got to be in the endless amount of oil they tell you to add and the gloopy mystery sauces again. Very disappointing. Expensive even at restaurant prices.
