the good the bad and the grubby
good - wide range of plant based options, including breakfast - i love the breakfast option - probably not the best bang for my buck overall as porridge is relatively cheap - and there possibly could be more breakfast options than 1 per week - however i absolutely love the one option and it's perfect for me for work because i only work 2 early shifts per set - sturdy cards thats are well designed and, for want of a better word, pretty - the partnership with BOSH is really smart and it works - coconut yog instead of canned coconut milk is a swap i've been making for ages and tastes great. reduces sat fat but tastes even more creamy - fairly sturdy paper bags - extremely good quality, really fresh food - i LOVE love love LOVE LOVE LOVE how the spice mixes are literally just small pots of dry spice mixes vs other recipe box companies who send weird, oily paste pouches for curries. the dry mixes let you manage oil control - i rate the playlists - overall the best meal box option for vegans improvements - box was leaking upon arrival - this company trying to reduce waste but two large separate ice bags were sent for 2 x 100g pots of coconut yoghurt (these are also potentially the leak culprit) - box seems unecesarily large? i can see how you're trying to stand out from hello fresh and green chef style boxes but this was just so wide and difficult for me to take from the delivery person ( i'm a 5 foot 3 female and didn't you know all vegans are sickly and malnourished!!!! /s) - i chose the option to leave the box outside if no one answered the door however the delivery driver kept ringing 3 times the doorbell and woke me up?? grumpy face - delivery driver then had to take a photo of me trying to hold this MASSIVELY wide box in my pyjamas, fresh out of bed - just an idea maybe there could be some kind of handover scheme where we send back ice packs to be reused in other deliveries ?? the plastic seems like such a waste and i can only reuse so many ice packs i haven't even tried the food yet, but from the menu cards, photos, and previous reviews, i'm pretty sure everything will be great. i wanted to put my first impressions out there I usually don't leave reviews but I want to be critical of this box because it has so much potential. I am so keen for more vegan options to be on the market, especially with this level of quality and clear eye for design. please please please make some small changes. i so want to see this company thrive
