wanted to post up my experience with these. single dude and lazy cook - i don't mind stuff shipped to my door to eat and nom and get on with my life.
first off, freshly - https://www.freshly.com
i haven't had these guys for months; when i was using them, they were alright. i had a few favorites and would order them frequently - although that would get a bit tiresome as well. iirc i wasn't impressed by the steak and only tried it once. the menu has slow turnover. i eventually stopped as i tried factor75 and the meals were all seeming a bit too unexciting to me. i won't describe the food as bland, but it wasn't necessarily something i looked forward to nomming on. perhaps a difference between them and factor75 might be them trying to make generically nutritionally healthy meals while factor75 may try to skew more to a particular diet? like i think factor75 will much more happily incorporate higher fat meals. i have not actually looked back since trying f75.

i think you get $40 off your first order, not sure what i get. but these guys are pretty solid. the menu has a lot of change - at first i found this annoying as i couldn't just pick favorites; in reality i think it has been good to try new things, plus there are usually similar meals. for example, every week there is a salmon meal. i have actually been really impressed with how well microwaving one of these fellas comes out too. the salmon meal is different every week though - from memory they can be 320 to 800 calories depending on the toppings and sides. i think there's 5 or 6 different ways they prep it, and just cycle through them as weeks go on. you can choose from anything they have, or limit your meals to a certain diet style as well. currently those categories are: keto, paleo, high protein, low calorie, low carb, dairy free, spicy, or all. additionally meals note whether they are gluten free. some dishes from my order history:
none of these services are cheap, although you can make them more inexpensive by bulk buying some packages. as you buy more meals, the per meal price gets cheaper.
for the worst case trial offer, if you do package 1 that would be $60-$40 credit = 20 / 4 = $5 / meal. you can't beat that just to try it out really!
i'm just ordering for me and eat lunch elsewhere and usually don't do a breakfast or their breakfasts (although i occasionally order some.) i'm on the 6 meal plan. additionally you can prepay for a package and get additional credits as a result. the package i have prepaid for is $900 for $1200 in credits. my actual cost of the 6 meal pack is $78.73. 900 / ((1200 / 78.73) * 6) = $9.84/meal is what i'm paying, ready to eat to my door. definitely recommend trying out if you've been looking at any of these services.
