Yeah honestly it sounds pretty gross. But I’m sure there are a lot of people out there that want to eat very un healthy food. I mean, look how many McDonald’s there are in the world. Personally I would never start a company whose sole mission is to feed people things that are definitely bad for them, and I’m surprised that this is the product they chose to launch with when there are SO many easy and cheap ways to get unhealthy food already. Uber eats will deliver me McDonald’s for free in under 20 mins, plus Taco Bell, jack in the box etc etc. It seems like a huge opportunity to bring that kind of convenience and cost effectiveness to healthy food. Almost everything healthy near me is 2-5x more expensive. But if someone could figure out how to make delicious healthy food at scale and deliver it to me, wow. I would be so stoked. So I hope these founders will consider thinking about more than a bottom line as they scale up. The world doesn’t need more Mac n cheese.
