Anyone tried these recipe box companies? HelloFresh, Gousto, etc.

To me it looks like a bit of a rip off.

That's because you pay a premium to have ingredients delivered for one meal!

Are people so busy and rich they can afford to have these? It takes minutes to find recipes and you can shop online and have your groceries delivered.

Is it the inconvenience of having to chop things up that is driving people to buy from these companies?

Today I made a quick chicken soup and rustled up spaghetti Bolognese with ingredients I had in my cupboard and fridge freezer.

I think they still have to chop things up. They sell them on the premise of making something from scratch you wouldn't normally make.

Oh, so they only do the shopping for you. I suppose it saves you having to buy a lot of one thing, that you aren't going to use up.

You get a step by step recipe card too.

I had Blue Apron while I was in the US, it was really good, always fresh ingredients and pretty reasonable price. It was a good way to vary up the diet
