Metabolic Meals

Generally, the food is very good, but there is a lack of variety. It is basically turkey, chicken and beef, but absolutely no fish, except Shrimp, which ain't fish. There is also not enough variety and most of the meals repeat, often. Also, most of the meals are a meat and then either a starch or a vegetable, but rarely both. I want to each a starch and vegetable with every meal so I end up having to cook which defeats the purpose. Plus, it's hard to pay $13.00 for a piece of meat and potatoes or worse yet a piece of meat and carrots!

I love that the meals are portion controlled, organic and gluten free. I couldn't give it 5 stars though because salt free is no longer offered. Also, low carb dishes are limited.

The packaging is good for keeping things cold. With 2 ice packs, even when the order is delayed, it all comes in cold. Unfortunately, I have had multiple meals arrive with the package broken open. At that time I have had to throw away the meal (obviously and it is expensive) and wash the rest of meals. I absolutely LOVE the selection! I have a nut allergy and am able to enjoy many options. The meals are GOOD! I have them every day for lunch and have never gotten bored with them because the selection is varied weekly and a large choice.

I like the meals, they are super tasty and really quick to prepare. The website is easy to navigate. The times that I had to contact customer service, they were really helpful. The shipping through UPS is a little bit slow. The company ships my orders on time, and they say that the shipment should reach me by Friday. When I track the shipment through UPS‘s website, it says it won’t reach me till Monday.

Food is good and a great way to eat healthy without having to plan, shop and cook. It works for me and I love how easy it is. I do miss the previous version of the website though. It was much more user-friendly in seeing when you had deliveries planned and which weeks you need to skip. I find the new website more cumbersome to figure out when my deliveries are scheduled and which weeks I have set to skip. Other than that, I love it. I’ve also found a local animal shelter who uses the insulated boxes these ship in to make winter houses for feral cats. Love that!
