After 10 years of marriage your wife had to be the one to bring up that you should probably be helping with basis household chores??
> I can't tell you how much time we save in planning meals and trips to the store.
Is it because you haven't really saved the time? Also People VASTLY overestimate the value of their time in my experience. And they also VASTLY overestimate how much time it takes to plan and shop.
> My wife doesn't have nag me about what I what I want for the week's dinner.
Well if your opening line didn't cement my opinion for me this one did. As the person who plans meals in my household let me let you in on a little secret. She ASKS you what you want because she wants to make you happy and/or wants you to like what she makes. You've placed her in a no-win situation, if she asks you what you want she is nagging but if she doesn't and you don't like the food she also feels bad. The fact that you call it "nagging" is just crazy, wow, the nerve of your wife wasting all of your valuable time trying to make you happy. What a bitch. (/s if that was PAINFULLY obvious)
> The quality of the food and the time saved is well worth the price.
False
> I know there are some disadvantages about Blue Apron such as waste, carbon food print etc...
How nice of you to throw in a one line disclaimer, I'm sorry but that's not enough and undersells the horrible underbelly of this industry.
> Out of 100 meals I would say that we only had maybe one that was mediocre.
I don't believe this for 1 second.
> I suspect Blue Apron will survive as it will probably be taken over or bought out. It's kinda the leader of the pack and the market will eventually consolidate.
Oh, can't wait for them to consolidate and raise their prices up to realistic levels. If you think their prices are high now I can't wait to see what you think about their prices when they've killed off or merged with all their competition. Investors aren't going to subsidize it for forever.
> It also helps that I might have helped I bought about $1000 discounted gift cards at Costco.
What does this even mean??
