Maybe the company should rebrand as “YellowFresh,” or maybe “HelloFlush?”

    I stopped ordering HelloFresh because it was ultimately more affordable to buy my groceries.

    You stopped ordering HelloFresh because you discovered it may have been touched by hands soaked in piss.

    We are not the same.

        Yeah I looked into them for my elderly parents but all you’re essentially getting is a frozen microwave dinner. I can buy those from the store myself for half the price.

            That is literally the point, you chose a recipe they send you the exact ingredients you need, you cook it. Tbh not even a bad idea, less wasteful, easy meal planning, less trips to the grocery store. If it were cheaper i would be using it.

              It would be a great idea to just be inside a grocery store… like a section of just pre portioned meal kits… priced by cost of the actual ingredients found in the store…

                Someone forgot to swap their account’s address when they moved, so I got a Hello Fresh box for free when I moved in.

                The food inside is mid and the recipes are super basic. Soooooo much plastic waste too. Everything is wrapped individually and excessively.

                The food was fine though (I ate it after the rightful owner didn’t show up for a week)

              I see some value for people who don’t know how to cook. You pick a recipe that sounds good, they send you all you need, (With no extra, so no worrying about what to do with the left over that will properly end up going to waste) and a guide on how to cook it.

              I considered trying one of these services to find new recipes. Never ended up doing it, seem like a good choice seeing this.

    My daughter got a UTI from no bathroom breaks in a chain store that is gas and groceries and charging stations. In a class action, the lawyers got all the money and she got a check for less than $20.00 which is $5 less than her doctor co-payment for the UTI.

    Sounds very fresh and appetizing. I definitely want urine-soaked workers handling my premium food products. /s

    Piss Fresh! Soon to be followed by:

    Number two! Number two! Number two!

    But who will be the first worker to take things up a notch! This show of heart breakingly disturbing Capitalism must go on!

    Then we’ll upgrade the advertising from Piss Fresh to Hello Shit!
