Quality produce, variety & good portions I didn’t plan on sticking around past my discounted boxes because the price is so much higher than other meal services I used before. However, I was very pleasantly surprised with the overall portions, quality and variety of produce. It was all a lot better than other services (and I’ve tried nearly every comparable one out there). Let’s just say you do get what you pay for. I’ve stayed for several weeks now ..they hooked me. My only criticism would be that I wish every single meal option had at least 18-20 grams of protein. I appreciate that they offer a few “high protein” labeled options each week. However, I don’t think that something with only 11 grams of protein should be considered a meal and exist on the menu at all …

Love the freshness and flavors I have been using meal kits weekly for probably five years now. Your boxes have the freshest ingredients I’ve ever had with a meal kit company. It is a new diet for me, so I am exploring new things, and you’re providing an excellent resource for that. I have, however, had a minor ingredient that was either missing or not as described in the booklet you send on a couple occasions. These are the ones that I have not received an email notification for, which those are always appreciated. Even though the kits are more expensive than others, I feel they are worth the extra money. I continue to look forward to getting your unique and fresh boxes weekly.

We had a substitute that was nasty We had a substitute that was nasty. That sucks, and we paid for it. If you're subbing meals you guys should pay for them or just don't send anything. Edit: had already reached out to purple carrot support before posting this review. Was told that they don't refund substitutions except in cases of allergy. After a lot of back and forth they made it clear there was nothing they'd do about this, and that its just a part of their distribution model. I'm a little put off by their reply suggesting I reach out to their support team since they already know that they weren't going to fix it.

Shockingly disappointed in their… Shockingly disappointed in their website sign up process and horrible chat/service request process. I was so excited to start a subscription but they've ruined it. Their horrific marketing strategy is aggressive. Despite the tasty meal options I would never use such an intolerably aggressive company. Don't be fooled by them, they are definitely selling information and using the survey questions to profile and sell. They also make it so hard to cancel your subscription and close out service request before they're processed, its a very shady company. Any company that makes it hard to get help or close an account tend not to be forthright. They respond to reviews in hours but they can't make a functional website that is ethical.

Great service but with some downsides Some recipes are kind of difficult but they've been doable. Would like it if there were alternative instructions for cases where you might not have certain equipment like blender, microwave or oven. Also, don't really know how you'd go about contacting purple carrot if there was an issue with order, delivery, ingredients, etc. Other meal services have easier ways to identify concerns without having to hunt down contacts.
