Thanks for putting that front and center.

My biggest issue with these services is that for a regular home-cooked meal, that is quite a premium for something where the portion size is quite often way too small or the ingredient quality isn't justified by the price.

I know I'm looking for something that may not be able to exist because of the razor-thin margins, but if someone came out with a service at the <$10 price point with decent ingredients and portions, and healthy (read: low sodium, low sugar, low processed-crap) options, I'd likely switch a significant percentage of my weekly meals to them.

As it stands now, it is just hard to justify at that price. But perhaps I'm not the target market.
