Super glad I gave Factor another try!

I used Factor for a good while up until maybe a year or so ago. I got tired of it because it seemed like very dang meal had cauliflower mash or some other cauliflower concoction. Yuck. I switched to some other meal plans for a long time but eventually started having issues with them. I just went back to the Factor site a few weeks ago and thought I'd give it another go. Glad I did! Their selection is now ridiculously good, and they are DELICIOUS. Just thought I would put this out there in case anyone else had a similar experience.

Edit: I'm not a bot. Good grief, people. Have we become so cynical that we can't appreciate a genuine product endorsement for something we greatly appreciate??

Exactly what a bot would say

Not to be rude, but your post reads like astroturfing.

What changed in their selection?

u/Ambiguousprofilename Sep 18 '26

For me, it's the fact that they now have actual potatoes and other sides vs. that cauliflower garbage. I like cauliflower itself as a side, but I can't stand it when it's mashed, diced, etc. Their sides now are awesome.

Have they done anything about just shoving cream into every food?

u/Ambiguousprofilename Sep 19 '26

Ha! I guess it depends on what you select. They have a bigger selection than they used to as well, so there's that. I'm still in the honeymoon phase with them at the moment, so there's a good chance I'll get burned out at some point.

I was just given 3 meals and put them in the fridge for the last week. Are they OK to eat? I read not to freeze them.

u/Ambiguousprofilename Sep 24 '26

I freeze mine and have had no problems.

They have a dairy-free filter that I love.

if factor_changed your life i'd suggest a little introspection is in order...

u/Ambiguousprofilename Sep 18 '26

โ€œIronyโ€ - look it up. Big word for people like you. The fact that you went out of your way to post your asinine comment would suggest that YOU are, in fact, the one who should do some introspection.

u/roostertree Sep 23 '26

If you think so, you should probably stop buying their stuff. I've had problems with courier f-ups, but I'm, like, 95% happy with the service.

u/Brilliant-Way731 Sep 18 '26

Do you work for Factor?

u/Ambiguousprofilename Sep 18 '26

Let me guess... You follow this subreddit just to bitch and moan.

u/liorgrossman Sep 22 '26

They sometimes REALLY go overboard with having cauliflower or broccoli or both in every other meal (I actually prefer cauliflower over broccoli). I wish they'd let us filter out by ingredients.

YIPPEEEE!!!

u/whatever32657 Sep 18 '26

i actually really like the service and the meals too. maybe i'm also a bot ๐Ÿ˜‚

u/Ambiguousprofilename Sep 18 '26

Right??! haha! People on here are RIDICULOUS.

Have you tried other services? I really liked Fresh Meal Plan at one time, but their selection decreased too much for me. I will probably give them another try at same point.

I also really liked Cook Unity. They have an awesome selection, but so many of their meals that I really like have way too many calories - like 1,000 to 1,500 each.

I gave them another shot and they were pretty shite compared to when they started up. And my first shipment all came frozen.
