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.

GBLove purple carrot! -the website is really easy to navigate. -love the delivery process and packaging, makes it super convenient to sort out the meals -the meal variety itself is really good and I love that the recipes incorporate more uncommon vegetables -I will say the pasta recipes are a bit weak, I don’t usually pick those unless it looks really interesting

GBSo far so good. Purple Carrot has been pretty good so far. The meals have been great (sometimes could use a squeeze or lemon or lime). They've been easy to make and very flavorful! The customer service has been ok, just a little different from other meal delivery services. We had an issue with a missing ingredient and instead of a credit for the meal, it was just for the missing ingredient. Luckily we had something close enough to sub with, otherwise we would have needed to find time to go shopping.

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.

GBThis experience has been great This experience has been great. A minor note; please provide more soy-free and allergens-free meals. When I received an arugula that was yellow and going bad, you immediately refunded me no questions asked. Also, you didn't pressure me into buying my meals every single week or every single month either.
