Lots of items like the mushrooms and English cucumbers will arrive to them already in packaging. Also just because you see stuff w/o packaging at a grocery that doesn't mean it didn't arrive in packaging. Go take a look in grocery store dumpsters you'll see an enormous amount of packaging and it rarely gets recycled.
i have been getting imperfect foods for a few months now. first order came with a bunch of flowers for free. the 2nd box came with sausage that i didn't order and would never order and it was free but i cannot eat it. none of the other boxes came with anything i didn't order. I like the fact i can buy only what i can eat in a weeks period of time since im a household of 1 and can control how large the quantity of food is sent. Last week i purchased salmon and veggies to roast. this week i got cod and veggies for salads. you can prechoose "packages" to be put in your cart because if its in your cart you pretty much WILL get it unless something happens to the supplier. One week i planned on Fajitas with skirt steak and the skirt steak was cancelled but i got all the other items. I would not have ordered them if i had know i wouldn't have gotten the beef. That was a problem. I'm in Utah, our main distribution is in California, the boxes are sent to a warehouse here in Lehi where the Independent GIG drivers pick up their orders for the DAY and deliver them to our door. I have chosen to get text notifications when it's on the way and delivered. the personal referrals are now $20 for credit on their IF order. my orders range from $16 to $28 and i find the shipping of $4.99 very reasonable. I can also skip any weeks i want if i don't need food or would be on vacation and not home. only 1 time so far during those big snow storms was a weekly order completely cancelled and i was never charged for the food. sometimes my orders will sit at my door for up to 6 hours and they are still perfectly cold. i love those silver bags and they work great if i go to the store i can line my reusable bag for my frozen/cold foods. I hope you don't mind me sharing my experience, I'm very happy with Imperfect Foods. and i subscribed to your channel so i can see more of what you do. I like how you communicate so well.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience here! I think that it could help others choose what's best for them. You got more freebies than I did! I know you didn't eat the sausage, but sometimes it's nice to get hooked up lol. I like that you reuse the insulated liners too. That's such a good idea. Thanks for the sweet notes and see you around!
I've had two orders come in from misfit market the interior packaging is not the same no ice pack my food was rotten not ugly and miss items that I ordered. This may work for people who live in dense urban areas that have food deserts.... With that said buy from local farmer markets!
FYI the imperfect insulation and box size changes are because they switched from a fedex delivery to imperfect delivery drivers in your area. Many areas still get delivered by fedex
I like Misfits market but you have to know what to purchase. Also I would never purchase lettuce items although I do always try to get collard greens, kale, swiss chard, etc because they handle the two to three day shipment better. Items like eggplant usually come bad on one side which means half is unusable and some vegetables come to you needing to be cooked right away. The potatoes are usually stabbed on one side so partially unusable. I've not been happy with some of the fruit choices that were not ripening properly and never got sweet. Like mangoes twice that were hard as a rock and green yet black inside. The good thing is they do give you a credit towards your next order if you contact them. Personally I would not purchase anything off their menu of items past the produce because I don't think their prices are very good on them which is how they make their extra money. Also it's important to know how much your organic produce costs at your local market to make sure that you are purchasing things that you can't get cheaper when you break down the cost of the box versus buying at your own market. I try to get things that I can't get at my market since I try to only eat organic and my market is limited on organic produce. Misfits is no longer using that plastic insulation they are using a paper one now. Also I have not been getting any of those plastic containers but instead they have been sending them in egg crate type paper ones. Your box is definitely bigger than mine. I get the smaller box for one to two people so I don't get the quantity of produce that you do. If I order potatoes I will typically only get two small potatoes. The good thing about them is that unlike the other online market choices they are fully organic and have enabled me to save seeds from things like the winter squashes and fruit etc.
I wonder how much the packaging and quantity varies by region. It’s likely that our shipments were packed in different warehouses, so that could account for some differences. The worst experience I had was a peach that had already gone bad by the time it had arrived at my door, but it was a hot southern summer, and I nothing like that happened once the weather cooled down. I contacted them about it and they made it up to me. Overall, I had a really good experience with them and I agree, it’s great that Misfits is all organic!
I'm glad you found the kimchi. I've been wondering if any of these have raw fermented food since I can't find that on Walmart and Thrive Market which is where I order most of my food from.
Love all the plants in your dining room! That baby delicata is too cute🤣and the green grapefruit looks so good! Love the overview you gave. I think I've been skeptical about trying a service like this because of the packaging and shipping waste/emissions, but I also like that they target food waste. Pretty sure I'll eventually try Misfits rather than Imperfect Foods after hearing your synopsis!
Yeah, I figure that there are probably not much more emissions than if I drive to the grocery store to get the stuff. The packaging does bother me though... There use to be box (and probably ice pack) returns before covid. But things have changed. :( I do hope you try Misfits (or any of them, really) because I forgot to mention this in the video, but it's a great way to try new things and eat lots of produce since it comes automatically to your house! Positive experience for sure.
It's so jungly I love it too!! I think there is a bunch of pros and cons to the service haha I'm interested to try them both out when I get to the US one day
Yeah, I guess the ideal situation would be to have your own organic garden and be able to grow most of this stuff yourself. Ryan has an aunt with an epic backyard garden and when I was in Macedonia, this was very very common. It's just not possible for a lot of people. Ryan and I move around a lot and I don't know if we will ever be able to do that.
Glad it was helpful! I agree there is too much plastic, but it also depends on what kinds of items you buy. I wish they would disclose what kind of packaging things come in when you order...
I just got my first box from them and there wasn't anything in plastic except a clamshell of cherry tomatoes. I was actually surprised to see how much was wrapped in this one.
other people showed their produce from Misfit going bad in 3 DAYS. We use FARM FRESH TO YOU which is awesome but it's a little pricy for organic but i get HUGE harvests.
Loved this review! I’m currently trying to do my first order with Misfit Market. But I’m not seeing the screen you showed in the video where it gives you a specific selection. I’m just given every item and I can just choose what I want. Does that makes sense?
Yeah, they are changing things all the time and now they have a completely different ordering system where you add whatever you want up until a certain dollar amount. Hope this helps!
I just got my account set up to pick out my misfits items. I noticed they don't have alot of stuff I like and mostly stuff I don't like. So, could you recommend a good time of the month they might have a larger variety?
In my experience, the selection doesn’t change that much depending on the time of the month. Try making your selections as soon as possible before certain items sell out or go with imperfect foods, which I think has a wider selection and more flexibility when you are ordering.
I'd like to know where you are recycling any plastic that's not #2....my recycler will only take #2 plastics and not even all of them. I already take my glass to the transfer station for recycling...but I can't find anyone near me that takes most plastics. I'm in Oregon and you'd think we'd have better recycling here. Thanks for your review. I appreciate you
Yeah, it varies a lot. Luckily my recycler picks up all numbers. I hope all communities can get wider access to recycling soon! This should be the producer responsibility.
Purple fingerling potatoes? What a weird name! Those are native to Okinawa so we just call them potatoes here haha. Their native name is "beni imo" and I LOVE them sweet or savory. They actually bake them into a lot of desserts like tarts. This video was so cool since I have never had a service like this so it was cool to see how a few of them worked! I had no idea you could get non-produce from them!! What makes them misfits? Damaged or close to expiring? Either way I'm glad they're not being sent to landfill!
Lol yeah that's what they were labeled as. They were really good! Most of the produce I get from these boxes is totally normal. Some things have blemishes (like that apple) some are a little weirdly shaped (like some of those beni omo) or oddly big or small (like the little delicata or the giant sweet potato.) After spending a few years abroad myself, I was surprised when I got back how common stuff like this had become. The future is here!
@@CocoShin My best friend tells me that scarred fruit/vegetables like that apple you showed us, are actually going to be much more flavorful than all the others because the scarring is where pollinisation took place & the more scarred the more delectable will be🖤
Hey great video, but I think for the mount of money it’s paid I think I can get more bang for my buck around my local markets. Nevertheless this is a great option for people that can’t move around or they have to travel long distances to get to a market.
Good question. It is said that the delivery model actually saves emissions because there is just one truck driving around dropping boxes off instead of individual people going to the store to pick up their food. It's always best to shop local whenever possible to reduce emissions and support the local economy though.
Do you mean for things like the tomatoes and stuff? I am pretty sure that they are both simply distributing what they get. Overall, the US relies too much on plastic packaging, but its up to us to show the companies that it is not what we want!
Are you a farmer? If not then you should be as you want more sustainable products and packaging---suggest you should really do the thing that you want.
Sustainable packaging is not just for food. If we don't want to live on a trash-filled planet, we should have higher expectations for all of the companies we support to have their products package free when possible or in low impact packaging if necessary. Having my own garden sure would be nice though.
While the concept is noble, I had to end my account with both Misfits and the newly acquired Imperfect Foods. Why? Imperfect and now Misfits through their warehouse has a VERY POOR track record in packing goods safely and properly. Why use insulated bags if the packers are TOO LAZY to seal them? Makes for food safety of perishable items questionable.
If they still do it the same way as when I last used the service, you choose which day of the week you want your deliveries to come and you select your order a few days before that.
Misfit markets is than imperfect foods by $10 for the big box and for the small box it’s only 2 less items included so it’s the best deal for sure. Imperfect foods was a disaster for me when they delivered. I cancelled them real quick.
Maybe they are also adding more items in general for the big box instead of more variety. In any case, I'm glad you found something that works for you!
Thanks for the awesome detail! I adore your affect. I invite anyone to please share with me their experience (positive or negative!) on pausing/skipping deliveries. I only shop to feed myself; I could see myself getting a pile of food that is more than I can eat between deliveries, even if it is only for "1-2 people".
You are so kind, Claire! Lori Evans wrote a pretty detailed review in another comment and it sounds like she is only ordering for herself. In my experience, canceling and skipping is really easy.

I initially quit them to improve my meditation practice. Onions and garlic can give you some sensations in your body after you eat them, and it's better to try to focus on subtler sensations.

It's hard to avoid them in prepared foods though, so I still have them from time to time.
@@Coincidence_Theorist yeah, I would eat it more intentionally if I thought I needed it for medicinal purposes. My understanding is the medicinal value is greater when you’re only eating it when you need to.
will you ask what do we think I'll tell you what I think. I think that you spend too much effort on Renewables and recyclables and you're not paying attention to the actual item because you're diverting your mind on can we use this again is this number four or number three recycle I mean it's it's it's crazy after a while especially when you consider how the big factories are dumping shit all over the place this little tiny bit of extra packaging that we have should be nothing to be concerned about
Thanks for sharing! I totally feel that. At the end of the day, it’s all about meeting our basic needs (food) in a way that is sustainable and works for us. Larger corporations definitely bear the brunt of the responsibility for plastic pollution, which is why I also make a lot of content about activism. There are a lot of considerations to make for a sustainable lifestyle and also lots of actions people can take. Considering the sustainability of one’s food packaging is just one of them. ♥️
I know. :( I think that a lot of is it coming from their suppliers, not them directly, but in general there should definitely be better plastic-free packaging for all food.
Thank you. I haven't heard of hungry harvest. I'll look into it. I appreciate your review. I do think misfit gives you more produce!
Yeah! Different areas have different companies that serve them. Hope it works out for you!
Perfect video for someone just learning about it. Thanks

That’s true. There is a lot of waste in the food industry. Shopping local if possible can help a lot.
You're so awesome, you ROCK! ❤🤘 Thanks for all your help & kindness!
I was completely satisfied with my first misfits Market box.
Glad to hear it! Did you get any particularly “misfity” items?

How much did it cost?

Ok all the packaging is recyclable but how much fuel is being used to get the product to you?
Good question. It is said that the delivery model actually saves emissions because there is just one truck driving around dropping boxes off instead of individual people going to the store to pick up their food. It's always best to shop local whenever possible to reduce emissions and support the local economy though.
Try donating the ice packs to a local Food bank?
I wonder why they cant just use mesh for packing the produce?
