What did you guys think?? Surprised?? Would you ever try a service like Blue Apron? Should I do more comparisons like this with services like Hello Fresh or Plated??
James B. says
The Melea Show Thanks for this video. I like that you broke it all down and did the math for us. (I hate math). Definitely would like to see similar videos.
Sandra P says
The Melea Show I would love to see a comparison with the other guys also. I think this is a great idea. I woild love to try but its pricing considering a weeks worth of our groceries is 80.00. Great gift idea.
Robin M says
yes please do the others that you mentioned. my husband and i run out of ideas when thinking about a meal plan so this would really be cool. great video thank you!!!
Tammy Schiff says
Yes please!! I really wasn't impressed with Blue Apron.
Alicia West says
Thank you so much for doing this! I'd love to see Hello Fresh as well.
Jennifer's Life says
The Melea Show we have tried blue apron before and have also tried 2 other services like this. The food was not bad. a lot of the stuff I would not have tried if it wasn't for these services. I do like that they send you all the meals but we are on a budget each month and getting at least 3-4 Meals from them would cut our budget out more than half for each week and that doesn't include breakfast or lunch. We only do these when we get money off.
Angie Stewart says
I'd love to see other food service comparisons as well.
Kayla Calcote says
The Melea Show yes! Hello Fresh please!
Kelsey Hill says
I'd love to see a Hello Fresh comparison!
Nicole Radke says
My mother-in-law just sent us a free trial of blue apron. We get ours next Wednesday. I'm excited to try it! Thanks for doing the cost ratio comparison. I was wondering how it stacked up to buying your own groceries.
StoreeOfMyLife says
Love this! I've been wondering if it is worth it! I'm so glad you shared this!ð
Amanda Blanchard says
Looks really good! I think it'd be nice for an at home date night with the hubby! I'm curious how the chicken lo mein was like $40! What was so expensive – the chicken?
The Melea Show says
YES! It was the chicken… I had to get the same grade chicken they sent in their boxes. So no hormones, no antibiotics….
Tom Siodlak says
Great video! My boyfriend gets his food from Hello Fresh. In the past I had entire meals delivered but got tired of what they prepared. As a vegan, I think my only option is Purple Carrot but they don't deliver to my area in Ft. Lauderdale.
Ashley C. says
Tom Siodlak – Purple Carrot was the only one I saw that was truly vegan and that stinks that they don't deliver to your area! I did see some vegan options on Terra's Kitchen when I tried that one but they didn't have a ton of options. I'll paste the link below in case you want to try it out. If anything, you can get on there without signing up and scope out their menu to get recipe cards for some fun vegan meals sometime!

Stacey Abraham says
I have wanted to try one of these meal services! Thanks for the review!
Kimbra Cooke says
Loved this! Thx!
bottledupchai says
hello fresh would be great to see! I've gotten it for weeks now and have always wondered.
Kimberly M says
Wow the amount of extra trash from the smaller quantities.
Evelyn says
Thank you for this video I have been wondering if it service was worth a try.
Amber Johantges says
I was surprised! I have never tried a meal subscription service but I think it would be a fun idea for date night and especially nice since it is only my husband and I. Sometimes it is hard to cook for only two people. Lots of leftovers! Lol.
Myka Stauffer says
Such a fascinating video I loved this!
Courtney Durrant says
I really liked this video! I've tried Blue Apron before, and I loved everything about it except for the price!
Kathryn Lawrence says
please do more comparisons!
Jana Pribyl says
interesting video. I was surprised by the pricing. I would not use it regularly but maybe once or twice
Amanda Owens says
I was very surprised. How customizable are these? we tend to eat ketogenic because of dietary restrictions.
Ashley C. says
Amanda Owens – I haven't tried Blue Apron myself but Terra's Kitchen has Paleo options which I chose to try to keep my meals keto. I've also been able to find some on Home Chef but they want to add in carby sides like potatoes, pasta and rice. It's possible but it does limit you with these until they get more of a variety of meal options.
Yoli River says
Please check out The Deal Guy, he's great and he tested out two delivery service and cooking time. I like your practical outlook and saving. I've used some of you tips snd it worked out great.
damiter says
is this a sponsored video. this seems more propaganda then a video. I'm kind of disappointed.
The Melea Show says
Nope! Not a sponsored video at all.I really wanted to see if it was cheaper or not. If it is a sponsored video, I will always tell you guys on the video. 🙂
Nicia Crosson says
I enjoyed Blue Apron… but not their protein recipes. I loved the side dishes!
Kristy Inglish says
Thank you! I've heard of blue apron and wondered about the value.
Meredith Grey says
So glad you did this! I just saw an advertisement a couple of days ago claiming that a study that was done proved Blue Apron was cheaper than the grocery store. It was sponsored by Blue Apron of course, so I ignored it. Now I know for sure! Thanks!
The Melea Show says
Yeah, this video was NOT sponsored by Blue Apron. So I'm glad it helped!
Nicia Crosson says
Please do Plated!
Tammy Schiff says
I am just finishing a two week trial of Blue Apron. I have to say that I
was not impressed with the menu. I didn't feel like they were very
family friendly. If you had choices for each week I think it would be much easier to pick your families meals.
I did like the convenience of the delivery.
Kara Shurtliff says
Awesome! I loved this video. I was never going to do this because I just assumed it was so much more expensive, but this was actually really helpful and I'm excited to try it!
Millie Hanlon says
Hello Fresh let's you select your meals and when you put it on hold they send you another coupon
LisaD GingerSnaps says
Everyone I've ever known that has tried Blue Apron LOVES it!
Cari Smith says
I have tried Hello Fresh, I would like a comparison for that one too!
Annia Palacios says
Please do more comparisons!!
Sunshine A. says
I've watched a lot of comparisons and people tend to like hello fresh for more fresher ingridients and bigger portions (hello leftovers) so i would like to see what your comparison is like
Ashley Martinez says
Do you have a way to pick what you get? We don't eat some things so that would be something to consider too.
Desiree Vallejo says
Yes I was so surprised ð¯
Brittany Atamanczyk says
I have tried both blue apron and Hello fresh. blue apron was more unique pricer dishes and hello fresh was simple recipes that would cost me a fraction of the price at the grocery store. that bothered me with hello fresh. at least with blue apron I felt I was paying higher price for higher end meals.
Ania S. says
Outrageous prices! Sorry, but I'm feeding family of 3 and 2 dogs on about $90 per week, buying mostly organic when it's on sale. And I live in TX where our grocery prices are quite good. I look at sale circulars for 3-4 different stores each week, they are all close to each other so I'm not wasting time or gas shopping in various stores.
jenettef says
yes! Love the comparisons!
raquel mendez says
and you saved gas!!!
The Melea Show says
TRUE!
