It’s an interesting trade off, though-food vs material waste. In my experience, Blue Apron is pretty good about sending you filling meals with pretty much nothing left over (and what is left over is finished very quickly). That said, just because there is reduced food waste on the user end doesn’t mean there isn’t…

$60 per week for 5 dinners per week or all meals? I probably spend like $60-100 per week, but that’s for all meals.

Where do I get this seamless-crap-in-a-tray? Is it similar to Bachelor Chow?

That’s not even one piece of bacon. It is cut off at the bottom to fit the package. I demand to know where the rest of the bacon went.

What seamless crap in a tray? It’s great that BA works for you and you love it, but I can eat pretty well on less than $60 a week for groceries.

It is amazing how much can be overlooked by a spouse because of what is below the waste.

I was happy the day I found out I could buy 5 dozen eggs for $3.50-$6.50 at Sam’s club / Costco.

How the fuck did this one egg come to be.

Though I am that weird guy who would find that one egg carton kind of cute and re purpose it into a planter for a small cactus or maybe for setting up a paint station, or something…

That’s just wrong. Who eats ONE piece of bacon? I have to exercise restraint to not cook a whole pack at a time (granted, much of it goes in the fridge to use for sandwiches and such, but... one piece!?!?!?)

My friend’s husband has been ordering Blue Apron since he doesn’t like how she cooks. She’s super frugal as well, and has yet to see how much it costs.

hush little farm egg, don’t say a word

We tried Blue Apron and it took me 90 minutes to make our first meal. That was it- I’m not spending take out prices for meals that take 90 minutes to make yourself.

If you can’t shop and cook for yourself (and can afford them) then I guess these meal services are handy. But I feel like these are End of Days.

I would say that it saves one the trouble of shopping but there are delivery services for that.

If you sing to it, it hatches into an entire farm

That only sounds like a deal if you’ve never cooked for yourself before.

Maybe they were going for an all natural sous-vide?

Sorry, I kinda draw the line of caring at seafood.
