I Have Deactivated My Green Chef Account.

Update to my Green Chef experience-I have decided to deactivate my Green Chef account because of the number of delivery errors. 1. In my very first Green Chef order, the rice for my Black Bean Rice Bowls was not included. 2. In a subsequent order, the cheese for one of my meals was moldy inside the bag. 3. Two weeks ago, I received the non-meat ingredients for a meal I didn't order and the meat and recipe card for a meal I did order. So, I was able to buy the meat for the recipe I didn't order and make it and I cooked up the pork chops for the meal that I did order, but that was a big mix-up and kind of a hassle. 4. Thanksgiving week, I did not receive the one side dish I did order and I received FOUR sides I did not order. I ended up giving the food away to our fire department because I had already planned and shopped for my Thanksgiving menu and I did not need FOUR extra sides. I was disappointed to not get the one side I did want. Green Chef credited me $15 for the side I didn't get and $15 for the inconvenience, but this was just the straw that broke the camel's back. The meals were always so delicious, but there is no way for them to fix any delivery mistakes and they kept making them and they were getting worse and I was only a customer for three months. There are too many other options for me to stick with Green Chef. --- Green Chef has truly changed my life. I have been the only cook in my family for over 25 years, and that responsibility can really suck the joy out of cooking. Green Chef offers 24 unique and delicious meals to choose from every week. They seem to have hundreds of meals in their inventory. I have been ordering from Green Chef for over two months and most of the meals have been outstanding. Some are just good, but I know they will not all be home runs. They are sneaking so much nutrition into our dinners. We are eating more greens, whole grains, nuts and other vegetables than we ever have before. The meals feature a variety of cultural influences: Mexican, North African, Italian, Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, Asian, etc., etc. I have truly started to enjoy cooking again because the agony of thinking what to make and then going shopping for it has been removed. Also, we have almost zero food waste from our Green Chef purchases. I don't have hundreds of bottles of spice rubs, sauces, condiments, dried fruits, grains, nuts in my pantry and fridge. But we are eating so many different ingredients. It's been outstanding. We have had a few hiccups with missing ingredients, spoiled ingredients, and just the wrong ingredients. Green Chef always gives me a sufficient credit to my account, and so far, I have been able to make the same amount of meals despite the errors. I can't believe not everyone is a customer of Green Chef.
