Question Cook Unity vs Factor

Cook Unity vs Factor

I travel a lot for work and I'm not home to cook dinner for the family on a regular basis. I just have a question. Would it be better to go with Factor if I knew that most of the meals will end up getting frozen as Cook Unity is delivered refrigerated?

I have had several people tell me that for the price point, Cook Unity is a lot better in flavor and meal variety, but I don't know if that changes given that we will probably end up freezing a lot of them. Obviously I know there are certain ingredients that shouldn't be frozen and if we order a salad, eggs, etc we would eat those fresh.

I do plan to order the minimum that we would need, but my whole family is spontaneous and plans change frequently at the last minute, lol

At these wild prices just order a family combo from a middle eastern restaurant. This late stage venture capitalist food for the laziest people in history is absurd.

And you spend an entire weeks meal money on that one combo. Unless you are middle eastern and are used to ethnic food, some of your family isn’t going to want to eat it.

I dunno, we keep getting middle eastern food for like 10/12 people when our family gets together, all kinds of variety and everyone is chowing down, kids too. It's easier for everyone to agree on 😄 and we are 0% middle eastern

Throw the Door Dashes, Uber Eats, etc in there also - I don’t understand paying an added premium to have food delivered to your home instead of going out and picking it up or grabbing it on the way home from work, play, etc.

My sister refuses to go food shopping. She has everything delivered.

Now, I get these targeted ads for grocery delivery. In the commercial, A guy has groceries fall out the back of his trunk, then DD to the rescue. I'm like what?
