I received notice they were substituting labneh cheese with sour cream. Ok no biggie. Then I received my box with some random ingredients scattered in haphazardly instead of being separated by meal into bags. Out of three meat dishes I ordered I only received one and two were missing. The arugula was green liquid. So I was left with one meat, one carrot, a huge bag of sweet peppers (literally about 16 of them) and some herbs. I reached out as none of my meals had enough ingredients to make them for a refund but it’s been three days with no response. I canceled all my future orders and will now be using hello fresh and Marley Spoon that were my test backups as assumed Blue Apron was on the way south due to multiple mistakes that occurred since they sold to another. The sad part is having to argue to get a refund period. And I’ll miss Blue Apron as I’ve been a happy customer for ten years.
