We tried Blue Apron but stopped for two reasons:

- We have toddlers, and the menu was too "fancy". It's difficult to get a 4 year old to eat squid ink pasta.

- I felt bad about all that wasted packing material and giant ice packs.

We switched to Dream Dinners, which is a local place. My wife goes once a month, picks out a bunch of dinners for the month, and we throw them in the freezer. Each of the dinners fits in a gallon ziploc bag. They were generally easier and faster to cook (pre-chopped vegetables, pre-marinated meat, etc) and there is more choice to it and no shipping containers. Highly recommend.
