GBI like how ofter deliveries come and… I like how ofter deliveries come and being able to edit easily depending on travel schedules, etc. I really like the options for the juices - the lunches and dinners are super handy. I think we are still figuring out how much or how little to order - we've had to throw out a couple because we ordered too much. I like the flavors of the dressings as well - it would be super cool to share recipes on your website for your subscribers in case we wanted to make any of those yummy dressings ourselves!

GBSooooo worth it!!! They offer early delivery times multiple times per week, so meals aren’t sitting in the sun all day or wilting in the fridge for a week - perfect! The meals and snacks taste AMAZING! There is a great variety of options and ingredients, which was a nice surprise. Other meal delivery services we tried tended to use the same ingredients over and over, which quickly became monotonous. Thistle is our new favorite by far!! We loved everything we tried!

GBThistle has been the perfect solution… Thistle has been the perfect solution for me. I was trying to eat the 30+ plants/week to make my microbiome happy. My grocery bills were high, I threw out a lot of food, and I was about to give up. Then came along Thistle. I spend less on Thistle than I did on groceries. The food is not only nutritious, it's delicious. I tried a couple other services -- and they literally sent me ultra-processed ingredients -- what I was trying to get away from! I'm very grateful for Thistle!

GBGood food! Not good packaging. We enjoy the food a lot! It is certainly healthier eating than we’ve had before, and it’s made vegan cuisine an easier transition for us. However, I’d like to reiterate what was said below re: packaging. While I understand these things take time, Thistle has been promising reusable or compostable packaging for years with nothing yet. We were hopeful the “big announcement” this month had to do with new packaging, but were disappointed when it was only a branding shift (what are they doing with the old “reusable” delivery bags, btw? Trash?). Our town won’t accept the packaging for recycling (only the salad jars), so this is a lot to throw away. We’ve made a commitment this year to lessen our imprint, and unless the packaging changes soon, we will be phasing out our use of this service.

GBQuality of Food and Service CUSTOMER SERVICE: The several times I’ve contacted customer support, the issues have been promptly resolved. Some of those issues have been delivery-related; others have been user error with the website. However, my concern re: customer service is that it is challenging to contact the company on a non delivery-related issue. FOOD: For the most part, I’m satisfied with the food options, particularly the wide range of low sodium options. Still feeling my way around the menu to determine where my food preferences best align. For example, while I like the way many of the dishes are seasoned, I’ve discovered that I’m not all that fond of the salads that use beans as the main protein source.
