Is Daily Harvest worth it? 19:45
Please watch my update on the unfolding Daily Harvest alleged food poisoning situation: ua-cam.com/video/CpzPf6WCtQw/v-deo.html
I guess it's kind of randomly asking but do anyone know a good website to stream newly released series online ?
@Xavier Kylo Flixportal
@Theodore Ezequiel Thanks, I went there and it seems like a nice service :D Appreciate it!
@Xavier Kylo No problem :D
What I did is I went through the website, wrote down the ingredients to the ones I like and made it myself. U can adjust what's in it and the amount, also it's not going to burn a hole through my wallet.
That’s smart! I keep saying I’m going to do that and then never get around to it 😂
My thought too, but I wonder if they add additional seasonings that aren’t listed? Someone should make a UA-cam channel duping these recipes
@@andreagayle7510 Great idea!
@@andreagayle7510 that's true but u can make it ur own
@@andreagayle7510 Wouldn't adding unlisted ingredients be illegal? You can never know what someone is allergic to, so i thought food safety regulations required *everything* be listed...
This is the best Daily Harvest video on UA-cam (and I've watched them all)
Wow, thank you!!
Thank you for the honest review. I had been curious, but not enough to put out the big bucks for dehydrated food. If I still worked in the hospital where I never had time or anything good to eat then this would be ideal. Good review! I think I will stick to my organic veggies for now.
Robyn Saavedra you’re welcome, thanks for watching! Just to mention, it’s not dehydrated, it’s frozen, if that makes a difference. I think it makes the food seem more fresh overall. And yeah, like I said, so weird how it felt so worth it for some items (smoothies & soups) but not for others! 🤷🏻♀️
I’m with you!! 👍🏼🫶🏼 I was curious as well because the commercials make it look like they’re delivering fresh fruits and vegetables and fresh meals but this is all dried out and I’m wondering if there sugar in those shakes thAt are prepped!! But great review!
The mint chocolate smoothie looked so good! Thank you for your honest review
It was honestly amazing!! I can't wait to get it again! 💚
I mean kelp does come from the ocean and is a type of seaweed, the kelp you had in the past was most likely processed and American friendly, that's why the seaweed flavor had been drained out. As for the lo mein, they're basing that dish off of Asian American takeout food, not authentic Asian cuisine. Tbh I wouldn't get offended on behalf of us Asians if it tastes bad cuz we don't even care for Asian American food ourselves lol..(even though it might have ironically tasted more authentic due to the kelp). But yeah, honestly that's moreso to appeal to fellow Americans.
I totally hear what you're saying. My expectations were definitely based on the more modern (Westernized?) utilization of "kelp noodles". The "offended" part is referring to people complaining about vegans calling a meat-analogue burger a "bacon cheeseburger" and things like that (the "stop trying to pretend it's something it's not" attitude). "Offended" was somewhat of a strong word and a bit tongue-in-cheek. Asian cuisine (particularly Thai) is my absolute favorite, that's why it was so unsettling for DH to have botched this "pad thai" so badly 😂 Thanks for your comment!
I just ordered my first box. I definitely think there is a place for some of these in my week...especially the smoothies. Thank you for the thorough and honest review. I think it's at least worth a try.
Excited for you!! You'll quickly find what works and what doesn't. Enjoy!
Thank you so so much for the honest review of the different dishes. I will be ordering daily harvest just to help reset my health. My eating habits have gone to heck. A few of the items you didn’t like are currently in my cart! I’ll have to switch them up. Others I may add an ingredient or two to make it more palatable. I’m honestly most excited for the mint cacao smoothie 😻
I'm so happy you found this video helpful, and I'm excited for you to try Daily Harvest, specifically the mint & cacao smoothie. I still get it and it's still my favorite!
Thanks for your input. It felt honest and authentic. I agree with you on the "plans". It is scammy. I know for other things when I have forgotten to skip i hey charged then I'm angry and I usually will cancel my subscription altogether. I just want to order when I want to order. Having did that I will probably try it (24 items , monthly) since I'm trying to eat better and lose weight but take your advice and skip a month or 2 in between. Thank you. I really appreciate your review. Extremely helpful!
I am SO glad my review was helpful to you!! I get so frustrated with the "plans"; I feel like I'm constantly trying to remember what I signed up for so I can remember to cancel it! I think it's good you're trying DH and seeing what you think; the smoothies and soups have seriously saved me on a number of occasions. They make it SUPER easy to skip a shipment on their app too.
I do the 7 a week but I order it once a month since I still have other options as college student
Omg thank you for this review and talking about the weekly and monthly subscription.
You’re welcome, so glad this was helpful for you!
Thanks for posting this, massively helpful. There's so many subscription food services I would be lost without videos like these. Even better that it's also very descriptive and well-prepared. Thx again!
I'm so glad you found this helpful! I'll have a new Daily Harvest video coming in a few days 😊
Omg the brussel sprouts pad Thai is my favorite so far! I loved it! This is my first week and I'm only on day 3. Thanks for the detailed review!
Wow, everyone's taste is so different; it wasn't for me but I'm glad you like it!! You're welcome for the review, I hope you continue to enjoy DH!
I’m trying my first order. I ordered all of bowls and smoothies. Some are definitely a miss but some I really like. Once I figure out which ones I like, it’d be better. Thanks for this honest review!
So glad you are enjoying it for the most part 😊And yes, your box will get better and better over time as you figure out what you like and don't like!
I do Daily Harvest due to a recent health condition that requires more of a vegan diet. And to be honest, I had similar reactions to the food I didn't like---not the same items, but similar reactions. About the only really safe foods for me, aside from the flat breads, were the smoothies because they are more fruit based and its hard to make a mistake with that. And due to your review, I will be trying the lattes too.
So glad I wasn’t alone! And totally agree, the smoothies (and some of the soups) have really saved me in a few time crunches. The chocolate latte is sooo good, tastes like the most luxurious, indulgent hot chocolate ever!
I want to try this or splendid spoon because I have to switch to a vegan diet too. Its just so hard lol Id rather pay for one of these subscriptions than try to cook it all myself just yet
Loved this review 👏🏾👏🏾
Thank you so much!
wow great review, i just copied their recipies and added beans and chickpeas in them for meal prep
Thank you! Really smart idea!!
Amazing review, thank you! Rare in a sea of videos to find one like yours.
Thank you for the kind words! So glad it was helpful 😊
love the honesty!!!
I’m so glad! 😊
If they had more substantial serving sizes and were not so pricey I would be very tempted to sign up, but the high price point for so little food isn't worth it. They're more like side dishes and snacks than full meals, which kind of defeats the purpose of convenience.
I think they have definitely had feedback about the portion sizes and I know about a year ago they increased the size of the soups and I believe the bowls? Personally I feel that the smoothies and soups are very fairly portioned; the bowls however I don't find to be filling enough.
Nope! I’m not privileged enough to afford those meals. I just like to hear the opinions of those who can afford it.
They are definitely expensive and it is a privilege. I don’t even do DH consistently bc it’s too expensive. Hopefully one day healthy eating can be accessible for everyone.
I just want some bomb ass smoothies, but their uber expensive and that’s so not worth it for me, I’ll just buy Walmart frozen fruit and yogurt dood
Can definitely make something similar on your own!
Loved the honesty and your reviewed! Just ordered my first box using your code :) Thanks!
I'm so glad you found this helpful, and I hope you enjoy your box!! 🤗
I forsure wish I could order only a handful of things, like the mint smoothie or lattes instead of having to do the weekly/monthly. It's quite expensive when having to order so much for the monthly. I only need the box of 9, but not weekly.
Yes exactly! These millennial subscription companies make it so hard to do that but I think they would make more money if they allowed you to order “a la carte” like that. I think what you could do is sign up for weekly, get your 9 items, and then just keep skipping the upcoming shipments until you are ready to order again? I *think* that would work!
@@TotallyForkable exactly! I think I will be ordering the 9 items to try and if I like them, I'll reorder the 9 like once a month
We are on the same energy wave,lol, right before you said Serendipity I thought of the drink from the movie straight away! So funny. Thankyou for this review. I'm sure with meal prep we can all achieve this menu. I love organizing, it's the Libra in me 🙂, so this would be a cinch to put together which is healthy and great. I've just always had an issue with portions. So this delivery meal plan has a reason for being in different ways for everyone I guess. The idea it gives those who haven't it all figured out, nutrition wise, it helps. Thankyou again. 💜
LOL I'm glad I'm not the only one! Reminds me, I still have one pod left, I think it's time to make another frozen hot chocolate 😊 Yes I complete agree all of this could be prepped; it just comes down to the whole time vs. money thing. I am not good at carving out time to meal prep but it could totally be done with this stuff, especially since they list all the ingredients on their site!
@@TotallyForkable lol. True exactly!! I have 5 children and my pops who I care for and they ALL have different likes and loves pf foods, not for what I fed them in the womb nor what I've been pushing them to eat now. It's the media and everything else that contributes to their eating ,lets just say, differently. Lol. I try to do this weekly and waking up real early one day out of the week is a must if I want to accomplish this task. They are late birds and I am not. So doing it late one night for myself isn't practical, I'd become tired and not finish. So this does require setting a schedule and time do it,lol , which is a task in itself. Lol
Our Crescent of Gems yes exactly! You have way more on your hands than I do; I am seriously impressed! It sounds like you take great care of everyone 😊
@@TotallyForkablelol, all we can do is try! They are hard headed and run the moment I tell them to try something new, lol! Over all not too bad. Wait till I get rid of their "treasure chest" of snacks! (Other than seaweed it's mostly junk) lol. Then they'll have labeled me worst mom of the year! 😁😄💜
Her haircut is so cute. Thanks for the honest review!
Thank you so much! 💇🏻♀️
I think the bowls are compostable, not recyclable. In our city we have municipal composting, but I think some cities don't have that yet.
They definitely look/feel more like compostable bowls than recyclable. Every city should have a citywide composting system but sadly most don't yet 😢 I pay for a service now which is great; I think DH (like most companies) should be a lot more specific about how to dispose of their containers!
Great review!
Thank you!!
I just ordered for the first time and it got here today. Lol let's see how this goes. I love your video btw
Excited for you!! Hope you love it. Thanks for the kind words.
Great video!
Thank you!
This was a great review
So glad you liked it! 😊
I’m a meat eater but I really want to cut back a bit why I’m checking out DH. I had one smoothie and a sweet potato hash both were so delicious. Unfortunately very carb heavy my permenant diet has to be low carb. Under 150g a day. But because the carbs are so complex and lots of fiber it might still be a good option. I also can’t eat that much in one sitting so the the portions work and I eat them over several hours Definatley can’t wait to try my next dish . However I appreciate tips and tricks to make the food better. That helps.
If you haven't heard about the apparent food poisoning scandal they had earlier this year, I recommend checking out this video I made on it: ua-cam.com/video/CpzPf6WCtQw/v-deo.html. Totally your call if you feel comfortable using them still but just wanted you to be aware!
Haven’t tried this but my family loves misfits! I bet this is great too.
So glad you guys love Misfits!
I'm with you. I'm not the biggest fan of seaweed either
Just Carissa I know it’s healthy, I just...can’t do it 🤢
I eat it plain and it grosses my husband out so bad.
They sell a harvest bowl that they claim is poke but it’s made with beets😭😭
😂 Yeah it's all vegan. That sounds kinda interesting tho lol
I love your channel name!
Thank you!! 😝
You are dope! I love this review 🤣
Thank you! So glad you like it!
I like the desert items, smoothies, and lattes, their food doesn’t have a lot of flavor, the flat breads were completely nasty. The Turmeric lattes are really tasty. You’re right it’s healthy doesn’t mean delicious, the bowls suck. I love your review and I totally agree their combinations are way off. I can cook much better..
Thanks so much! I agree with much of what you said. Totally worth it for the smoothies. Haven't tried the turmeric latte but we LOVE the choc one I tried in the video. We are in the process of trying a bunch of the new flatbreads & mylks for a new vid and not loving the flatbreads but still have a few more flavors to try.
6:00 You were right the first time. "Anise" originally entered the English language as [a.ˈniːz] from French, and the most common pronunciation in American English is [ə.ˈnis], the way you said it in the video.
It is true, though, that a significant minority of Americans say [ˈæ̃.nɪs], which to me sounds like [ˈe͡i.nɪs] (anus) 😆
p.s. anise is objectively the worst spice ✴️🙅♂️
Hahah wow!! Can’t believe I had it right! LOL also so glad you agree on how awful it tastes (although it it beautiful to look at!)
But if the containers are compostable you don’t need to recycle them.
True but I think not everyone composts or has access to a good composting system.
the DH menu is too limited. I got tired real fast eating the same things over and over.
I always try to order their new items to keep it interesting!
🤣🤣🤣❤️❤️❤️ you're beautiful and hilarious thanks so much for the reviews!!!!!!
Thank YOU so much!! I'm glad you enjoyed it! 🤗
You're so pretty...you look like a very young Babe Neuwrith...she is gorgeous BTW!!
Wow, I've never heard that before. She is beautiful then and now. Thank you!
Just say NO TO DAILY HARVEST ....... IMO😬
It's convenient for sure but definitely possible (and cheaper) to do all this on your own.
Not good at all
