I tried the Shrimp Scampi kit and it was incredibly easy to cook something that was tasty and interesting at home.

The best part was that the shrimp was pre-cooked so I could get it all the way there in just a few minutes. The fact that I control the butter/oil/salt is a big plus over takeout.

Thanks Jay! I agree — ingredient transparency and control is one of the big reasons people use Gobble.

freshness + control + speed = our recipe.

I'd give it a try if they had more options that were high protein and low-carb (e.g., if I could customize the salmon dish to increase the number of brussel sprouts and eliminate the quinoa).
Smart idea. I like the idea of cooking "in theory" but dislike the shopping and prep. This seems like the right balance to me.
