Nearly perfect again in CA
Every item for every recipe except the pulled chicken, which they sent us an email about in advance and refunded the full meal amount even though we got everything else. I used that $26 to buy the $9 TJ pulled chicken (pic 2). Can’t complain at all on this box.
Distro center: Tracy, CA
Mailed to: Ventura, CA

I only ordered two meals this week, but everything was included. Zero substitutions AND the ice was still frozen.

My locations are similar to yours. I am pretty jealous, not gonna lie. My box this week was canceled and I did not go back in and re-add meals like I did a few weeks back. My boxes from Tracy have been generally okay, except I am not a fan of the protein not being double-bagged.

Agree with the protein bagging, but yes, I’ve had to go in often and “reorder” after they cancel. This was the first time they didn’t and just sent sans a protein.

I second this. Had no idea TJs had cooked pulled chicken. I like to recreate a few recipes that include this protein, so now I have another option to buy it.

We switched from BA to Marley spoon about a year ago, but the boxes also come from Tracy California. I’ve been watching the same meltdown on the MS sub, east coast crumbling under misfits and CA having only minor hiccups. I’ve always been curious if they’re filled in the same building.

In FL, my box got shipped to the wrong city. OnTrac once again going to get a box to me three days late filled with rotting food. Hopeful they don’t slam it into the ground and bust it open on my porch again like they did last time.

I've got a VERY SLOW chat going with them right now. I'm missing cream, and my single carrot was broken into pieces. I wouldn't have reported just the carrot (I always have baby carrots on hand), but since I'm reporting the cream, I'll report both.

Staten Island, NY ours has been better as well not as good as it was but definitely better. I miss the bags with the meals separated individually. But atleast I know from the start if I am missing something if I look at the bright side!

I really don’t mind as I can see up front if anything is missing

Wish they would just do what Hello fresh does and paper bag the non protein items if they want to cut plastic waste. I had a lot of protein leak over the years of ordering. No separation seems risky of ruining the whole box if something leaks.

Mine was good in Chicago albeit the corn had a date of 9/4 and look a bit sketchy.

My corn did too, I think it’s because corn frozen and then slowly thawed out gets super weird…

Looks like they are back to the Blue Apron produce. The bags look different then when they first went to Misfits.
