  1. CW: Meal Kit Review - food mentions

    Inspired by our daughter giving us her unwanted Grubby meal kits, I ordered a couple of Gousto meal kits for ourselves.

    They've just been delivered.

    The delivery by DPD was bang on schedule, the box was undamaged. The contents were in great condition with the cold pack still frozen solid. The ingredients seem to be good quality.

    I chose two meals - a chicken risotto, and a meatball meal with mash & onion gravy.
    The recipes look straightforward, if not exactly child's play.

    These weren't cheap at £7 per person before the Introductory discount - but I think it's a price we might be willing to pay for the variety of meals we'll get and for meals that I can prepare (as opposed to my wife who's increasingly finding meal prep a major thing with her disabilities).

    We'll see how they turn out.

  2. CW: Food description

    I've cooked another one of our daughter's surplus vegetarian meal kits from Grubby.
    Today it was a Katsu fried 'chicken' dish with chips. There was also chopped & marinated chilli & radish.
    I found it a bit too hot for my delicate taste buds, but Sacha seems to have given it a big thumbs up.

    It was perhaps the most complicated of the three I've cooked so far - but it was far from difficult.

  3. Had my first CookUnity meal. I followed the oven instructions.

    I feel like cooking in the oven didn’t enhance it any more than reheating in the microwave. It just cost more electricity.

    I plan to have a week where I double up on meals so I can compare directly. But until then, I’m going to nuke them.

  8. Related to the CookUnity saga…they deliver their mealkits in a really nice insulated bag. Like something not designed to be disposed of nor recycled. It says on the side to return it.

    But…how? No instructions included. Never saw a mention of this on the website nor the app.

    So I researched. Apparently the whole return thing isn't even available in my area?

    I'm going to leave it out next week and see what happens.

  13. They finally sent someone to where it was delivered and picked it up and delivered it to me.

    What a pain in the ass.

    We’ll see how it goes next week.

  18. CookUnity is requiring me to do leg work for an apparent misdelivery. They sent me a picture of a porch I don't recognize.

    So I'm supposed to, what, go creeping around people's houses?

    It's definitely not the porch where my packages typically go when misdelivered (across the street neighbor). Yeah, that's happened a few times, despite clear number markings.

    This first impression is getting worse and worse, lol.

  23. They will contact their logistics to correct the delivery, apparently. They delivered it to the wrong place. No idea where. If they can't fix it they will refund me and give me back the discount used.

    As of now I'm now looking for a plan B for dinner.

  33. Decided to try CookUnity. Initial experience is not good. It’s marked delivered. Got a text that it was delivered. It’s nowhere to be found. There’s no evidence on my cameras that it arrived.

    This is the first order.

    I actually planned my meals for the week around this.

    We’ll see if I get refunded. I’ll give them one more chance after that.

  38. Tonight's dinner is the Sunbasket meal kit: Korean kimchi stew with tofu, shiitake mushrooms, and steamed rice.

    It tastes good but I feel like it's missing something. Some flavor, some spice, some kick.
