I was really looking forward to trying out this meal service. My family has used various meal delivery options over the years, and I enjoy seeing how each one operates differently. The meals appeared appealing in the advertisements and on the website, leading me to believe this could be a great choice. Unfortunately, my initial experience never progressed to tasting the food due to the sign-up and billing procedures. To view actual pricing and determine my weekly expenses, I needed to create an account and provide my credit card information before getting a clear view of the meal costs. I set up what I thought was a temporary configuration (two meals, twice a week) just to check the total and compare it with another service we were using. After seeing the final price, I concluded it wasn't suitable for us and promptly canceled. The timing is crucial: I received the “Welcome” email and the “Cancellation” email just one minute apart. I never revisited the account or placed any orders beyond the brief setup for pricing. Despite this, a complete box of meals arrived at my door, and my card was charged. I had assumed that canceling within a minute of signing up would prevent any order from being processed, especially since I was merely in the “pricing check” phase. Clearly, that was not the situation. I recognize that this may be permitted in the fine print, but the combination of: • requiring a credit card before revealing meaningful pricing, and • treating that step as consent to ship and charge, even upon immediate cancellation, seems unnecessarily unclear and somewhat misleading. It's easy to understand why there are several negative reviews highlighting similar issues. To be fair, the food did look appealing upon arrival; the packaging and presentation matched other premium services we've used. My low rating stems not from the quality of the food but from how the sign-up, pricing transparency, and initial charge were managed. In summary: if you choose to try this meal service, proceed with caution. Be aware that entering your card details and configuring meals could lock in your first order—even if you decide against it right away.
