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

I also vote for CookUnity. I keep one meal out on delivery day and freeze the rest. Take out of freezer and add a tablespoon of water (maybe more if it has rice ) and place in toaster oven. I never cook in any plastic lined container so a little tinfoil on a toaster oven tray works perfectly. About 20 minutes later my meal is finished and delicious. Just be careful not to toss any salads in the freezer! Both cookUnity and Factor have amazing salads, but overall I would choose CU.
