Portion size definitely seems small to what I normally cook but I think I like it. Seems like the "right" amount of food one should be eating. Does seem like it'll be pricey.You said no to Gforce over raw prepackaged dinner?
Like I said I enjoyed the first night. Second night and I'm missing an ingredient. Guess I should have checked when it all came in. Could have picked one up but too late by the time it's discovered plus not driving to store for one shallot. That said, I feel like a shallot is a pretty flavor packed ingredient. I subbed some garlic just for some flavor.
Go to show my dad the size of the chicken breast for tomorrow's dinner and when I pull he packet out of the fridge it squirts chicken juice all over the floor. There's a hole in the package that somewhat seals itself when the chicken gets sucked into it. Who knows how long it's been like that. I thought it felt wet when I opened the box but thought it was condensation. Now I'm wondering how many things I touched after unpacking it and how much contamination occurred.
Sent two emails to the company expressing my disappointment in my first time out with them. We'll see what happens. Either way, don't see me doing it every week but could definitely see, "hey the menu looks good this week, let's have an easy week".
I got this first box for practically free thanks to Justin but had I paid and if I continue to pay and get missing ingredients or unusable protein portions, I'd definitely be pretty pissed.
Other news, ordered unrelated package from Amazon. Took longer than two days which seems to be norm with Amazon now but get notified this morning package delivered and on front porch. Get home And no package. Kinda annoyed and kinda freaking out cause it was a fairly expensive order. Over $200. It was lazership and they are certainly not the most reliable.
