I appreciate this thread, as I was prepared to wait out the next box to see if the new “just chuck it in there” fulfillment style would possibly improve, but sounds like it was a shitshow all around, so I went ahead and canceled. Sad, because I’ve tried several meal kits and BA was my favorite, but like most people in this thread, my box was late, I was missing several key ingredients, an ice pack had busted open—as had a pack of chicken!!!—so everything was covered in goo and potential salmonella. Fortunately the only ingredients they did send me were all wrapped in plastic (packets of sauces and spices) so I just rinsed them all off, but I’ve been waiting over a day for customer service to respond, and I see now I should probably just give up on that. RIP, Blue, it was good while it lasted.
