GBGreat 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.

GBWe 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.

GBOkay there is nothing more to say than… Okay there is nothing more to say than purple carrot is fricken amazing. My mom and I have spent years making fancy recipes that take hours out of all sorts of vegan cookbooks and barely any compare to how amazing and tasty these meals are. If you have the time and the money, purchase purple carrot immediately because otherwise you are seriously missing out... seriously.

GBLove 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.

GBAvocado I think the biggest issue is with avocados. I know it can be difficult to get them ripe or close to ripeness when shipping but always appear to be unripe and hard when delivered and would take too long to ripen as the other veggies would go bad. Reexamine the avocado recipes and perhaps use guacamole for some recipes instead.
