HelloFresh: Meal Kit Delivery for Android

This had the chance to being a great conduit for families in a rush and wanting to eat smart. That being said, they do not care about your food allergies. My wife consumed hot peppers that were stated to be sweet. We are still waiting for “food safety” to contact us. It’s been three weeks now. So customer service is nonexistent. Just yesterday yet with another recipe claiming to use sweet peppers actually was another hot pepper. Now we have to get a lawyer because this company doesn’t care about your food allergies. Update: Three weeks and still no return call. Still getting hot peppers listed as sweet. Time to get paid. Thanks hello fresh.

We got a free box from a friend and decided to try it. After six meals, I genuinely think this is a great service - for some people. I am not one of those people. I have nothing really negative to say and a lot of positive things, but it’s just not for me. Who’s it for: -people who know how to cook somewhat, but not super well or don’t love it -people who are too busy to meal plan -people who are used to spending $10+ per night on dinner -single people, couples, or small families -people who don’t eat a ton Who’s it not for: -people with NO kitchen knowledge or experience whatsoever. While the recipes are easy to follow, this will not teach you how to cook. -people who are fairly to very proficient in the kitchen who use recipes as more of guidelines -large families -people who are on a budget ($10 per serving! Yikes!) -people who are picky about their produce -people who feel completely capable of making their own meal plans and buying their own ingredients. That’s really the only part that was simplified for me. The simplification of prep was negated by opening all those dang little packages! Overall, I’m impressed with the simplicity of preparation, how tasty the meals are, and how every meal looks exactly like the picture when you’re done. I’m unimpressed with the lack of attention to detail in some aspects, like failing to say to drain ground beef or let the pork tenderloin rest when it comes out of the oven. The portions were slightly too small, and I don’t like the lack of customizability with the pre-portioned spices and sauces. I found the extra packaging annoying. It’s also waaaaay too expensive at $10 per serving. While all meals contained fresh produce, most did not have a full serving of vegetables. And while most of our produce was fresh, we did have a couple mushy tomatoes and flexible carrots, but it was all usable. So for someone who would rather look at a recipe and make it their way, it’s not the answer. But if you like a cut-and-dry way to eat tasty meals and you don’t eat a ton or you’re dieting, it could be a good option. Some of the meals I would read the instructions and be like “hmm, that’s a weird way to do that.” But I tried it to be open minded, and my way was usually better. But I learned a few things 🤷🏼‍♀️

they forgot my freebie and literally gave me 5 dollars for it. Thanks🙄

I can’t get passed the select plan screen, everything is blank.

Ups dropped it on doorstep. Horrible odor. Totally thawed, it was triple taped, then a plastic bag over it with label. We had to wash porch with bleach and throw decorative rug in trash from odor. Obviously meat was rotten. Thank God no one depended on this for their weekly food. Called customer service what a joke, I’m going to help you we give refund see in 7-10 days. Imagine if that was my food budget. I asked to speak with supervisor he disconnected me. Called back this person English was so difficult to understand again asked for supervisor he Nicole assured me they all were busy but I’d hear back In an hour. 48 hrs still waiting. If This is their definition of fresh run. I sent pictures to their e mail address again asking to speak to someone. Crickets. I’m still fighting to have subscription cancelled. Do yourself a favor go anywhere else.
