Their customer service is amazing too. Only a few times did I get anything that wasn't super fresh, and they'd always credit whatever I didn't like to the next shipment. And if you don't want something in the box, you can substitute something else. <a href="http://www.washingtonsgreengrocer.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.washingtonsgreengrocer.com/</a> Boheme on "Have you ever tried a food service?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-tried-a-food-service#post-1637362 Thu, 15 May 2014 16:03:42 +0000 Boheme 1637362@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Also - I have a Fresh 20 thread that has a lot of details Boheme on "Have you ever tried a food service?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-tried-a-food-service#post-1637359 Thu, 15 May 2014 16:03:11 +0000 Boheme 1637359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ This is my second week of the Fresh 20. I absolutely love it. swurlygurl on "Have you ever tried a food service?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-tried-a-food-service#post-1637339 Thu, 15 May 2014 15:59:50 +0000 swurlygurl 1637339@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Oh, I had a CSA last year - it was woooonderful! It replaced 80% of my weekly shopping and made me try new veggies and other foods. It was enough for dinners and most breakfasts (since I do veggie smoothies for breakfast and it was before L was eating much), so I only had to go out to buy lunch for DH and misc snack foods. I'm only not doing it this year because it was through my work, and I'm at a different company now :( ETA: The convenience of having most of my grocery shopping come to me every Thursday afternoon at work was the best part of it - I only went to the grocery store like once a month!!!

You might google your town and CSAs? It was similar to a CSA, except that we didn't have to buy a full share.

But then again I'm useless in the kitchen. How did you find the delivery place? Google?

I like how non-committal it was. I ate a LOT better because I didn't have to think about buying produce and I tried a lot of things I might not have tried otherwise. meredithNYC on "Have you ever tried a food service?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-tried-a-food-service#post-1637300 Thu, 15 May 2014 15:52:28 +0000 meredithNYC 1637300@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @BakerBee: Yep - here it is! <a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blue-apron-or-plated-meal-delivery#post-1570392" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blue-apron-or-plated-meal-delivery#post-1570392</a> swurlygurl on "Have you ever tried a food service?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-tried-a-food-service#post-1637296 Thu, 15 May 2014 15:51:05 +0000 swurlygurl 1637296@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I just signed up for Fresh 20. It's a meal planning subscription with a weekly shopping list and prep-ahead list. This is just my first week, but it's looking pretty helpful so far!

I think Blue Striped Bee has a great thread on Plated!

Could be a service that sent you weekly recipes and shopping lists; or delivered food to your door on a specific day every week/month; or a combination of recipes -and- food delivered every week/month. Did you like it? How much was it? Did it help or hinder your eating habits? Inform me! :)
