- Опубліковано 18 лип 2021
- Testing out Hello Fresh dinners for 4 days + unboxing and taste test. I'm cooking each meal and giving my honest review. Is it worth it? Is it kid-friendly? Is it easy? Does it taste good? How hard is it to build a box? Were the ingredients fresh? Would I buy it again? Plus, how I fed my family of 6 with a 4 serving box.

After planning, shopping and cooking almost every meal for my family for 35 years (we don’t eat out), the luxury of having someone else plan the meal and deliver the ingredients that are portion controlled is heaven!
Yeah, it's much more exciting to cook hello fresh. Lol
I know right !!
You can’t plan a meal?????
@@Nina5144 As I said, I’m enjoying not having to do that all the time anymore.
So i assume they send you at max one meal a day, not for each meal of the day? So maybe just dinner, and you have to buy from the store, and cook still?
Right off the bat, THANK YOU for jumping right in without a 10 minute monologue. Really appreciated!
Lol, glad you found it helpful.
Thank you for giving a normal ass review for a normal family. My family is active and with all the sports and after school stuffs I don’t really have time to meal plan and prep. Honestly I don’t know how my mom did it! But your review sealed the deal we got our first box a few days ago and it is super helpful for our family. Thanks again 🙏
You're so welcome! Glad the review helped! How do you guys like the food?
This is my current struggle. Our family is so active we find ourselves eating out or eating really late. I’m convinced to try this out. I think it would save me a lot of money as well.
How difficult is it to shop and plan meals. Really. Use your local shops - use them or lose them.
@@Nina5144
It’s nice to have everything portioned out and you can kinda shut off your mind. If you had this luxury, why would you purposefully make your life harder by not using it?
@@Nina5144 how big is your family Sid? What do you do for work? What time to you get home? These are all factored in for others
im autistic and one thing i absolutely LOVE about hellofresh is the detailed instructions. as an autistic person i need detailed instructions for everything, even putting towels up, and this service really helps with that. i dont think i could do it without my phone timer though
Lol thats a great perspective. Thanks for mentioning that. Your story might help someone else. 💕💕
“It’s so good” … while kids arguing 😂😂 love that you’re un faced by it. Everything looks awesome btw! Just received my first box, can’t wait to start cooking !
I hope you love it!!
Hello Fresh has stopped me from repeating my usual range of dinners week in week out. I order it for three meals a week and it adds some variety into our diet.
It's definitely good for adding variety and trying new flavors/cultural cuisines. I've never had a meal I didn't like from them.
I was thinking of doing this for this exact reason.
Lol@ you enjoying your meal while the kids were in a full blown argument. Everything looks delish.
Girl, that is my life. 😂😂
I have ordered HF on and off for a couple years. I absolutely love it. I’ve never had a meal I didn’t enjoy. Produce is fresh. Instructions and cook times are great. Generous portions. Zero food waste. And I don’t have to go grocery shopping anymore. Zero food wasted.
Just found this in my suggested, cracked UP when you were enjoying your food while the kids fight. SO realistic! Love it! Subscribed.
Lol, thank you so much for joining us! Glad you enjoyed the video.
Lmao that made me subscribe to her aswell😂😂
Me too. She's funny!
I’ve been using HelloFresh the past few months and I love it. I don’t have kids, I just cook for myself so I use the 2 serving plan. I eat one serving for dinner and save the other for lunch the next day. Works really well and it has helped me not be so tempted to order Doordash every other day, which can get expensive :) So far there hasn’t been a single meal I haven’t liked! And many of the meals I’ve made from them are meals I wouldn’t necessarily have made on my own, not because I am picky (I’m not a picky eater) but because I wouldn’t have thought of it on my own.
I agree. When you look at it in terms of how much it would cost to buy the ingredients to make the same meals at home, it isn't terribly expensive.
I’ve had hello fresh for about three weeks and I absolutely LOVE IT! I realized how much money I saved every week from not going out and I also try foods I never even thought I would enjoy. Plus it’s fun being in the kitchen again! Highly recommend ❤️
I agree. If my kids were grown I would probably order it much more.
Did you really save money though. If i want to eat at least twice a day, usually 3, its going to cover all of that? It says $129 a week for 6 meals a week, which is $516 a month for supposedly 2 people, to have one meal a day. Seems crazy
How are you saving money? Do you mean for just dinner? I looked online, and for 6 meals a week, obviously not covering one day, for 2 people is $516 a month. That still doesn’t account for breakfast, lunch, and all the basic ingredients it doesn’t come with(oil,salt, seasonings,etc;) i am generally curious how you save money?
@straight brutality its cheaper than eating out is all. also loads of people just use the discounts and then dip
You make cooking looking so easy, but you’re a great teacher. Thank you for sharing. Keep the videos coming. ❤️👍🏽🙏🏽
Thank you for coming back to watch another one!
I just gave Hello Fresh a try and it’s the end of my first week.
1. I have a super picky mother that eats like a 5 year old. So I have been able to choose meals that she likes and she devours.
2. There is a huge variety. I’m Cuban and recently I’m just tired of cooking the same stuff and really wanted to expand my meals. 10/10. Because the day I miss my black beans and traditional style I can make them on Sundays. Also Cuban dinners take quite long sometimes.
3. So FREAKING QUICK. I take a couple of mins to go ove the instructions that are literally dummy proved. Within 20-30 mins my dinner is ready. Funny I made these burgers yesterday and they were 🔥
4. I don’t have to think. It motivates me to cook other things. I don’t have to spend a lifetime walking through the isles to find all the ingredients I would need for stuff I’m not used to making. Open, chop it all up, cook it.
5. So cheap and it helps the portion control. Many times I over buy stuff I end up throwing away and it’s incredible how the meals are filling and they have cracked the portions to the T. So I spend triple the amount of money at the market. Also I have a business and many times I couldn’t make it to the groceries store and I would find myself doing so much Uber. What I paid in just two Ubers literally pays for a whole weeks worth.
This is amazing. Love it
I agree with everything you said. Convenience costs money, and it's worth the price tag to save yourself time and the money you would have spent on food that went to waste. And if you're trying to cook a meal you don't normally cook, the ingredients add up QUICKLY at the grocery store. 100% agree with your assessment. ❤
We have been using HF for almost 2 months now and we LOVE it!!!
The meals are delicious and filling and not tiny, tiny, portions.
My husband and I love to make it a nightly routine to cook our dinners together and he has gotten great at cooking!
So far we are pleasantly pleased!
I love it too! It's definitely my favorite of the meal kits I've tried.
Exactly what I needed to know about HF and you totally cracked me up enjoying your food despite your kids being, well, kids! 😄 Thanks for posting!
Thank you so much! Glad you found the info you were looking for.
Loved how you got right into the info!🙌🏻
Thank you for posting an actually useful, thoughtful review! I just want you to know you're my gd hero right now.
Lol, you're welcome!
We have tried, probably, 60 different Hello Fresh meals. We rate them 0 to 5 stars. None have been below 4 stars. There are no leftovers and you can duplicate your favorites using the recipe cards. You do have to provide some items like butter, oil and salt and pepper.
I agree, most of their meals are flawless. And you're right, you need to have salt, pepper, oil and butter already because they don't provide it.
I believe people should be able to try new things without eating the same thing all the time it shows you different types of food that's out there that's help you for you and also good at the same time it's okay to switch up every once in awhile you know don't be afraid to try something new
Great review Danielle, this is exactly how we feel about the Hello Fresh in our home. The only complaint i can honestly give is the instructions are a bit "chaotic" but the outcome is ALWAYS delicious and worth the effort. One thing you didn't mention is if you do stick with the program they really make it worthwhile with all of the discounts, rewards and referral coupons you earn every week, especially with the cost of groceries being so high, and there is virtually no waste food-wise because you are given exactly what you need to make perfectly proportioned meals, some of which are even a bit more on the generous side. This is definitely worth trying out. After a few months of testing the difference between ordering both 2 and 4 serving meals, 3 and 5 times a week, we have settled into the routine of ordering the 3 meals a week for 2 people which is plenty for our family (2 adults and one child) We found 4 portions to be too much for us, unless of course you are interested in having leftovers for lunch the next day.
Thank you! The food waste isn't a big issue for us which is why I probably didn't mention it. As a stay at home mom I prefer to have leftovers so that, for me, is a downside.
I love Hello Fresh. I’ve been using it for 2 years. Takes the hassle of trying to figure out what I’m going to eat away. Taste like restaurant food without the restaurant bill. Great video !
I agree. The quality of the recipes coupled with perfectly measured ingredients takes out the guesswork and makes it much easier to achieve restaurant quality meals.
Hey Danielle. I've been checking out hello fresh and your video was extremely helpful! I'm gona give them a shot thanks to you. I can tell you are a good mama
. Your kids are very lucky :)
Thank you so much! Abd I don't think you'll be disappointed with help fresh as long as you choose your own meals.
Wow you make it look so easy, I loved the video and just placed my first order!!
I'm sure you'll love it! The meals are so flavorful.
Thanks for your cooking!
Thank you for this review ! I will definitely be trying it ! 💕
I'm sure you'll enjoy it. The meals are so good!
What a great video! Straight to the point and thoroughly informative!
So happy you enjoyed it!
Wow this is the best review I've seen! 👏 Thankyou so much, blessings!
Thank you! Blessings to you as well.
Great video, thank you for sharing your experience!
You're welcome!
This was such a good review video!!!!😯 I loved how easy you made it look, although, yes, I noticed it's a lot of tasks in there!!! 😊. I loved your presentation of every meal! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you so much!! And yes, you will be working hard for that 30 minutes. Lol
Great video and very good review! Made me feel good about signing up for Hello Fresh earlier today. All the meals looked better than what I normally eat. 😁 So, I’m really looking forward to it. The hardest part for me is the meal planning, shopping, etc. HF takes care of that. The cooking part doesn’t look too bad. Thanks for putting the time in to make this nice video!
I think you'll really enjoy it. It's such a great tool for learning some new recipes and techniques.
Meal kit delivery are life saving in a food desert.
I've been trying several boxed meals before and it's been interesting knowing how to cook new food items , fresh vegetables and spices and learning techniques, incredibly low cost and having great ingredients quality so far ! People who think it's expensive come to our place and see how expensive food is getting in rural Canada ... 79$ per week ( HelloFresh) is nothing when we usually spend 450$ per week. It's life saving, convenient, amusing & you can keep the recipes to make them later 😄🙌🏼 Very excited to start another journey 🍔
Great points!
Hey I’m curious, how many people do you normally shop/cook for? That $450 grocery bill is quite steep.
Thank you for this video! I notice a lot of people who are sponsored by HF they all only say REALLY positive things. No downsides. So I really appreciate this non biased review!
You're welcome! I love hello fresh but having kids will give you some downsides for sure! Lol
This is prolly the best content on yt for people looking for reviews on these sub boxes. Great job showcasing every detail so well
Thank you. I appreciate that.
I’m so glad I found you. I’ve been thinking about trying HELLOFRESH for the weekends since I work so much during the week. Thank you for this amazing review.
You're welcome! I'm glad it was helpful.
😂😂😂😂 "The kids said 'nah fam'" Respectfully! I love it! Subscribed! 🤗
Lmaoooo 😂😂 they're annoyingly picky, which is crazy because they didn't used to be that way.
@@DanielleLaShawn ok! they change at the drop of a dime!😂
That's why I'm just like oh well, eat or don't. Lol
@@DanielleLaShawn I don't think kids are really that picky. I hear that a lot but I think it's just that they don't have really developed palates yet. My kids are adults but I never made them eat something they didn't like and now I have one healthy eater, one semi healthy eater and one that doesn't know what a vegetable or fruit is. Once my daughter left a strawberry in her bowl. I said why don't you just eat that. She said because I'm full. All 3 of mine are like that. They won't eat a bite over when they are full and all 3 are slender. I would have never left that as I was taught to eat everything on my plate or else. As a result, I struggled with obesity. I'm no longer obese but forcing food on me sure didn't help.
Thanks for your review. Just wanted to let you know that your kids sound very normal to me and most likely will increase their variety of foods as they get older.
Thank you for the information and presentation. Good job.
Girl!!! I was just about to ask you a question but you ANSWERED IT! Jesus why is it so hard for other channels to just spill it. Thank you so much. BTW, my question was about the prep. I’m trying to declutter my life so I don’t have a lot of kitchen items anymore. Thank you again.
Lol, I tried to tell y'all everything I could think of. I know it's not cheap and people want to be able to make an informed decision. For prep, you can get away with a cutting board, knife, and maybe a couple of bowls. You can do the baking in an air fryer. That's what I've been doing lately.
I was sorry to see this video end. What a great job!
Aww, thank you!
I like the variety they have. I like quick and easy meals
You can keep the insulation part of the box and use it as house insulation for your windows and stuff it'd be like 10° cooler
Thank you so much for your suggestions 💜
You're welcome!
My dad recently had a stroke and I can’t cook for the life of me (I relied on my dad to cook), and I decided to get a box of HelloFresh. Because of the stroke, my dad has a pretty easy diet and my brother usually enjoys anything, so getting their opinion if I should continue the box is difficult because they basically said “if you want ¯\_(ツ)_/¯” lol! I like it because I can learn how to cook for myself and family and it feels fun! I usually never cooked because I was scared of messing up, but it makes it super simple and makes me feel confident in wanting to cook more! Especially since I didn’t know where to start with cooking. Your review sealed the deal with me as a second opinion and I appreciate your video! Thank you so much!! ❤️💕
You're so welcome! I'm sorry to hear about your dad and hope he recovers well. As far as cooking goes, it sounds like you are improving! 💕
This is a dope honest review 👌🏿👊🏿
Thanks
Thank you for your honest review and coupon code. Your food looked good.
You're welcome!
Thanks for making such an awesome video. But I especially like the ending when you mentioned there's the Lazy way of ready-to-oven your food or microwave. I can't possibly be too involved in the kitchen all the time ---- I'm a busy person. But I'll try both ways.
Lol, yeah, I need to try those "no cook" meals.
Hey! Tks for your vid! I am so excited to receive my first purchased waaa! Great video
I'm sure you'll love it! Hello fresh is my favorite.
This helps me decide. Thank you!
No problem!
Thank you. Love the family milling about in your videos, gives it a "real" feeling. My wife signed us up for this, and, since I get home from work first, I'm the cook. Multi-task and a lot going on eh? Wish me luck. I'm off to watch more of your videos.
Lol, thanks for your comment. Hope you and your wife loved the meals!
Thank you I appreciate you explaining so many things that I had a question about.
You're welcome!
i love your energy!
Thank you!
Your video has officially sold me on Hello Fresh! Now I jus have to decide which plan I want. Thanks!
Hey!! Unless you're letting them pick your meals it doesn't really matter which plan you pick. You get to choose from all of the available options to decide what goes in your box.
Everything you made looked delicious. I like that the company simplifies my life.
Great review and production! Just placed my first order😎
I hope you love it!
Thanks for your review!
You're welcome!
Love the honest review, I totally agree with the multitasking to me it was so stressful, my kitchen is tiny and I have fewer things like baking sheets, so I had no room for all these steps, lots of dishes but food is great. Good options
I agree. If you have limited counter space you're likely going to struggle unless you are uber organized.
That last burger looked so good! We enjoy HelloFresh once every month or two. It has added a few new recipes and cooking ideas to our regular rotation :-) Things I wouldn’t have thought to attempt making on my own.
I agree. So many new flavors and recipes that I wouldn't even have thought to try normally.
Making a burger is not complicated with any change in Meat type.. but spending the cost that Hello fresh charge when you are making them up yourself any way.
Most of these meals ended up in an oven which uses a high amount of energy and so cost to use.
All you really like is the different sauce the item comes with.
Love hello fresh sooooo happy with the service and coupons. Your video was good. I don't think it is a lot of work. I was with blue apron as well and they are awesome as well. Thanks!
I think it depends on the level of effort you're used to putting into meals, especially people who aren't used to or great at cooking. It's not complicated but there are just multiple things happening at the same time - a lot of multitasking. Someone mentioned doing the prep work in advance and I think that would make a big difference in being able to cook it without feeling overwhelmed; because if you can cook without interruptions that's one thing but if there are kids running around and a lot going on in your house it makes it harder to give your full attention to the simultaneous tasks associated with cooking the meals.
Great video, just what I was looking for. I didn’t need anyone talking the whole time I wanted to see some meals. Thank you
You're welcome!
Thank you for showing exactly what came in each bag. You helped me make up my mind.
You're welcome!
It’s like a rule of nature. Kids have to fight when mommas eat. Kudus to you for being calm. Thanks for the review. You are a great reviewer!!
Thank you!
My thoughts exactly! With your ending speech❤
Lol
Enjoyed your review!
Thank you!
I really love my Hello Fresh but I have YET to see those recipes come through my rotation. I can't wait to try those!
Really?! I'm sure they have a bunch of recipes in their catalog.
It’s just me and my husband and I have been so curious about this subscription. This video just convinced me to do it :)
Glad I could help! 😊
Loved and enjoyed your review! The kids made me crack up #KeepinItReal
Lol, thanks!
I appreciate this Sis🥰
No problem 😊
I just got me 2nd box delivered and I must say I love it! I am actually cooking(ofcourse following steps).
I really enjoy it and the food is soo good!!
I agree. The food is good and although I don't always enjoy the cooking process, I'm never disappointed with the finished meals.
@@DanielleLaShawn You summed it up perfectly😊
I love your review! Normally I get bored watching them but this was so real and relatable 🤣 kids arguing and you just get on with it, love it.
We're in the UK and have just started Hello Fresh. We love it, not having to meal plan and shop for ingredients takes al lot of hassle away from me.
I do have picky eaters in the house so sometimes tailor their version of the meal such as not putting condiments and seasonings on their portion of food. If they're still not keen I have a stash of convenience meals in just in case. My pickiest eater actually ate an Indonesian curry the other day ☺️ I did have to omit the courgettes but I'm happy he even tried it....he cleared the plate!
I do have trouble multi tasking, I get flustered lol. I have roped in my other half as my sous chef. He preps all the veggies before I start to cook which he actually enjoys especially as the meals turn out so well so he can say he helped☺️
If he's busy working I prep the food myself before I start to cook but that's just my preference.
Thanks for a great review 💕
That's exactly what I do. If they don't wanna eat it, that's fine. More for me, and they can have some oatmeal and fruit or something. Lol
I'm retired and really appreciate you showing all the steps. ALL the steps. LOL. Great video.
Lol, glad it helped!
Your presentation skills are a bonus 😍
CHEF MODE!💯
Lol, I tried.
Great review and feedback!!
Thanks!
You have a good energy ma’am!
Lol, thank you!
Thank you for the review! One recommendation to reduce calories, is to reduce your oils. Since you're using a copper nonstick pan it wouldn't be necessary to re-oil the pain, or put oil on the garlic, etc. One table spoon of any oil is between 110-160 calories. Before your done cooking there is already 300 calories added to the meal just with oil and/or butter. - Of course do what you want, but just wanted to share with whoever reads this. It's a learning curve, but worth it. 💗✌️
Yes, I actually don't tend to use oil at every step they recommend adding it. A lot of times I'll use a nonstick spray instead. Great advice, thanks!
Ou girl you got me excited, can you upload more if you try any new ones
Absolutely! I have another Every Plate video coming.
Excellent video production quality!
Thank you! Much appreciated!
my husband and i are thinking of doing this as our kids are older and we always end up spending too much at the grocery. i don't mind having a day to meal prep in between church on sunday's but i work full time while i build a business and have 3 adult kids in my house and dogs lol this was real helpful! loved your take on all of it and loved seeing how it would come. thank you! will show this to my husband when he comes home
So glad you enjoyed it! And here's a tip: these days I order my hello fresh meals and then just buy extra meat, fish, potatoes, and rice so that I can stretch each meal and use their spice blends and recipes. Doing this, I easily get an extra 2-3 servings per meal. Example: if we're having pork tacos I'll add ground pork, tortillas, and maybe an extra lime and tomato to my grocery list so that I can cook the meal as the recipe states, but end up with a lot more food. I just add extra seasoning.
@@DanielleLaShawn that's freakn brilliant lol and will save tons on our grocery! thank you!
Great video and review! I was trying to see if this would be good for my mom but she may not be able to do all of those steps lol I may try for me!
Oh idk if anyone else mentioned it but a good tip for the garlic is to use the thick end of the knife while laying flat, and press down on the garlic clove to mash it a tad 😉
Thanks for the tip. I do that sometimes. Not sure why I didn't do it in this video. Lol
And yes, idk if it's good for folks who don't want to cook cook. Lol
Good job. My family and I are trying HelloFresh again after last having it 3 years ago, can't wait for my daughter to venture out with us this time 😅🔥
Lol, what might help is letting her help you select the meals. If she can choose some things she'd want to try (and maybe even help cook them) she'll be more likely to explore.
This was an incredibly helpful video review for considering to subscribe to the HF service. Thank you! I especially appreciated your honest commentary & insight at the end about how much multitasking & involvement to expect. I'm not good at multitasking but I'm wondering, since I'm a stay at home mom/wife, if some of the steps can be done earlier in the day and set aside till it's time?
I'm also wondering if since 2 out of 3 of our family are light portion eaters, if the 2 portion meals could be enough? They only offer 2 or 4 portions, not 3.
Any thoughts on that would be appreciated🤗
Definitely going to subscribe to your channel. Thanks again!
You could definitely do the prep work in advance and then just throw everything in the oven when it's time to eat.
The portion sizes are pretty good but idk how many people are in your family all together. If there are more than 3 I'd probably go with the 4 serving meal. I was able to stretch it because 2 of my kids shared one and my toddler just ate off my plate along with some fruit on the side. It might be kind of hard to stretch the 2 serving meals beyond 3 people, but if it's you and 2 kids you'll be perfectly fine with 2 servings.
@@DanielleLaShawn
Thank you SO much! Very helpful answers! I feel like I can choose the right portion plan now & inspired to try out thier service. So glad I found your channel too. Great content, point of view, & advice!
❤🤗
Excellent review!
Thank you!
Excellent content and commentary!New subscriber.
Thank you!
Very informative. Thank you.
You're welcome!
Great Review!
Thanks!
this was a great review and showing your cooking was wonderful. I have been thinking about doing Hello Fresh for my husband and myself for the nights our mostly grown kids aren't home. So 3 nights a week they won't be eating at home. This can't be more than buying groceries at the store or eating out. I have subscribed so I can do some more reviewing before I jump in
I recommend it. I still buy hello fresh to this day. I have 4 of their meals in the fridge right now. Lol
Awesome review- Thank you-
Glad you liked it!
You make great videos. ..and you're a great cook.
Thank you!
I use and like Hello Fresh. I agreed with everything you said. You nailed it!
Thank you!
Your kids arguing reminded me of my siblings and I when I lived at home 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
Great video, I love it!
Thank you!
Your food presentation is on fire.
Thanks!
You’re so pretty! Thanks for this review.
Thank you so much!
Looked pretty good to me. Thank you
I think the only thing I really have an issue with (after using them for 8-9 mo) is that once you choose a menu preference, you can't change it in the app. At least that I can find. There isn't a ton of variety (there is an ok amount), after you've been using them regularly. But if you go on their site (not in the app), you can change your menu preference. Then you get some different options. Their vegetarian/vegan meals are VERY limited, which is a little surprising. I'd recommend them for anyone looking to learn how to cook with different things that you normally wouldn't purchase on your own at the grocery store (if you're like me and find yourself making the same meals over and over). But long term, I found myself skipping some weeks because the meals were so similar.
Also, completely agree with her - they show a prep time on each card, but it normally takes me a lot longer to wash and cut things up, just as a normal, non-professional.
Loved this review. She brought up some excellent points.
Yeah, I agree that the meals can be a little limited over time. I think in the beginning it looks like a lot of variety because there are around 20 meals to choose from, but their catalog is probably not large enough to consistently provide a wide variety of meal options over a long period of time. BUT I will say that they have more variety than some other meal kit services. I'm looking at green chef now and you only get about half the options to choose from for the week.
I love that I don't have to think through recipes and gather ingredients often more Times than not it's cheaper than groceries
There's alot of people who say it's expensive which it is but not when you consider how much you spend on groceries and or going out to eat things in general are expensive right now
I agree. As much as groceries cost, it might be cheaper.
Great video. Helpful.
Thank you
Got my first box a few days ago and I made the first dinner of the night and it was really great! I hate shopping and I am a really picky eater so I like this idea because I can just cook it and leave out what I don’t like.
Yes, it's so easil customizable since you are cooking it yourself.
I have been Hello Fresh on and off for a few years. I live alone so three meals stretches to 6 days for me because its for two. I actually have trouble eating all that and its the minimum amount I can buy here in Australia. I really like it though and I can’t say its hard to cook, it is pretty simple for even a beginner and nearly always is something I have no problem enjoying. I admit the burgers and wraps are my favourite too. I think the price is really good when there is no waste at all! I think if I had to shop for those recipes it would cost me a lot more but getting just enough in the box is perfect.
I agree. If you were buying the ingredients to make each recipe you'd be paying A LOT more.
Great video and music selection
Thanks!
This food look so good omg
😋
Great review, just to start. Any type of checklist for good things to do for a review would be all crossed off.
What I think is great in particular is your thinking and analysis of the whole service and such, specifically the conclusion/summary portion. It's very clear that you are paying attention and have thought about these things, as you're basically just freely saying what comes to your mind.
Edit: Also, you seem very likable 👍
Lol, thank you. I like to think k of myself as likeable and a generally honest person. ☺️
