I like the idea of a premeasured meal with a recipe because I can't cook shit, but after reading about the various services you can run into everything from the wrong order to bad ingredients to meals that just don't fill you up or taste like crap.
Since I've been living on my own I can shop well and average 3.50-4.00 per meal if I'm careful. But most of it isn't fresh and I buy at places like M&M foods and the frozen aisle at Superstore
I made a crockpot roast with spuds, carrots, onions, mushrooms, garlic, celery and that was a pretty big deal for me
