A Different Way To Get Our Meals

I live alone and usually do my own meal preparation, but the last few weeks I have been experimenting with what seems to be a burgeoning business of ordering meals on line. One is GRUBHUB that mainly delivers to your front door from eateries in your zip code area. They show you the menu offerings, prices, etc. Last week I had a Japanese Sea Food Bento Box which included sushi & sashimi for $21 US delivered within one hour from the time I ordered. It was just a little more than if I walked into the Japanese restaurant, but it was just as good and how convenient. Today I received via FED EX a boxed in dry ice variety of six meals that I purchased on line three days ago at a introductory price of $ 49US for the six meals. The meals are all frozen and must be thawed. Lamb Stew, Beef Stroganoff, Egg Plant Lasagna were three of the meals. The company is Silver Cuisine.
Check them out online. The pictures of their meals is mouth watering but we'll see how they taste. Last month I had several meals from a company called Freshly which was pretty good and averaged about eight dollars per meal. I think I will buy a few shares of stock in a couple of these companies. BTW The quality of what I have had so far is so much better than the old Frozen Food meals we get from the super market.
 

I think something like this is great, especially for a senior or shut in. Maybe hard to do daily, but would give you the opportunity to have a nice meal, even if you cannot go out to get it.
Lon...thought of you recently, as I think, finally, my area is getting Uber.
 
There are several of these "ready-to-eat" caterers in our area. I use one where I get 7 meals
(just the main course) for approx. $65.00. These meals last me about 5 or 6 weeks, just
something to have when I don't feel like cooking. Mind you, I could be on the meal plan here
at the residence which costs about $425.00 per month for a full 4 course meal, either lunch
or supper.
 

Lon, thanks for the information please keep it coming!!!

I was wondering if you have tried having frozen foods delivered from Jet.com or any of the other online services. I've been looking at the offerings and am amazed that you can get ice cream, frozen meals, etc... delivered for only slightly more than the local grocery store.

I checked out Jet.com and found their prices way to high compared to the same items from Amazon's PRIME PANTRY.
