I meanā€¦ sure. Never heard of them before though. Sounds a bit futuristic if Iā€™m honest, like the Jetsons might have used toothpaste tablets.

Oh this reminds me I subscribe to the Verso book club. Ridiculous amount of books each month for Ā£5 (though think itā€™s gone up to Ā£10 now)

(Also donā€™t read them)

I know some people think these are great, but I canā€™t understand the attraction at all. Being able to adapt your cooking to what you have available is a great thing.

Absolutely perfect for time poor single parents. Cooking is a privelege to many poor people. Apart from the gross amount of waste packaging in these and the fact veggie or vegan options are so bad these serve a brilliant purpose. Or they would if they were affordable enough for those people to buy.

Um, yeah. Building up and destroying your argument in the same post - but I see what you mean.

Heartā€™s in the right place in that case then, but surely very little time is saved in prep and thereā€™s nothing you couldnā€™t get in a supermarket delivery?

Wait fuck what?

Well taking poverty out of the equation the time poor still benefit from it, plus disabled people and people with neurodiversities who might feel overwhelmed by the prep that goes into meals etc. Being a poor, neurodiverse single parent, I was gifted a few of these boxes and yes, a lot of time and stress was saved. Iā€™d never cooked a meal for me and my daughter before the boxes apart from beans on toast, fish finger sandwiches - I often work 6 days a week and I canā€™t pop out to the shops for food shopping when sheā€™s in bed, I forget things a lot too because of the ND stuff. Supermarket deliveries require meal planning that Iā€™m not able to do and thatā€™s the whole appeal of the boxes - itā€™s not the cooking itself, though yes, theyā€™re all under 30 mins, but the fact they think of the meals, balance the nutrition, weigh things out, tell you the order. I donā€™t agree with the cost but I think theyā€™re invaluable to a lot of people who canā€™t cook fresh food otherwise so thereā€™s a great benefit to them for people who need additional support.

After running through these polls, seeing how many subs Iā€™ve got (and how many Iā€™m considering) I think I finally understand why Iā€™ve never got any fucking money.

100% behind that then. As you say, the packaging waste is a real shame, and they are really overpriced, but itā€™s good they exist for the small part of their audience that it makes a real life-changing difference to.
