I’ve read about several of these companies previously through you, so I have an ongoing list of ones that I think will be perfect for family. What impresses me the most is how great these companies are. Like in the sense that it is real, fresh, good food. I once thought of delivery services as frozen, or having to make a meal myself, or processed. Those were the first things that came to mind, and it used to be completely true. But so many companies have reinvented what delivery services and gifts like this look like, and I love that! Which I think is not only a game changer, but so great for consumers to know they are buying quality foods and staying safe at the same time.
