The main issue that I had is that often times the food would be spoiled by the time it got to my house during the summer. I'd love to have a meal kit that just handles the most annoying parts of the meal, things like the spices. I can easily pick up the fresh ingredients at the local grocery store or have them delivered over a shorter distance in vehicles that are intended to transport food rather than ranomd other stuff.

@arakwar Yep, I've become a real fan of the frozen food aisle. If you learn how to work with frozen fruits and vegetables, you can create some pretty healthy meals that are also easy and still tasty.

@tjmarx TBH, the main thing that makes me not want to cook is the hassle of deciding what to make and deciding if I have the right ingredients. I think things like eatthismuch are probably a better solution to the problem. Also, a service that just handled the annoyance of spices and some the nonperishable ingredients would probably do a lot better. Get those ingredients now and then you can get the fresh ingredients closer to when you want to use them from a local grocery store. Most of them have pickup or delivery these days anyways.
