Thistle is an excellent experience… Thistle is an excellent experience overall. We like or love most of the meals, the food is usually delicious, and I feel like it is healthier for us. It is so convenient to have the meals delivered right to our home, and the cost per meal is less than we would spend on takeout.

Convenient and Usually Delicious We do four to six Thistle meals a week, and it's convenient and healthy. Meals are a bit pricey, but most taste great and provide a nice change from our usual bland meals. One suggestion is to email on Wednesday about making any delivery changes. Sometimes I forget and I get too many meals delivered Monday morning. Other than those minor annoyances, it's been great.

Good 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.

Thistle has made life so much easier… Thistle has made life so much easier and I've lost about 15 lbs. I've been using Thistle for over 3 months now for our dinners and occasionally for lunches and both my husband and I enjoy the meals and the healthy ingredients. It's been worth every penny for us. My only issue is the plastic packaging. So I'm looking forward to when they're able to figure out a more sustainable option.

Ordered it 3 times the only order that… Ordered it 3 times the only order that showed up was the first one. No delivery two times, waste of time and angst. Customer service replied 2 days later and offered a refund and assured that the future order would be delivered no delivery again. Who runs a business like this absolute rubbish. Order at your own peril.
