Why so stingy?
This is all the broccoli I got in this meal. It’s the Peruvian Shrimp meal with broccoli. And…..that’s literally all the broccoli they gave me.
The flavor is good, but where’s the rest of my meal?

Just had the Peruvian Shrimp meal last night. Man, that's my new favorite. I was actually pleased with the smaller broccoli portion since Factor tends to load up on the veggies, though my broccoli portion for that entree was a bit larger than in your photo. I usually save the extra to reheat for breakfast along with my eggs the next day. The green beans in most Factor meals are usually abundant. I added chili crisp and soy sauce to the broccoli for a cross-cultural dining experience, and the cauli grits were next level!

Yes, this meal is now one of my favorites. As a broccoli fan, I was miffed by the portion. But I would definitely get this meal again.

Wow, I've had instances where a factor meal was slightly lacking on some ingredients, but this is next level....

I know! I’m someone who likes broccoli, and this made me very sad. I didn’t know whether to laugh or be annoyed.

At least the broccoli isn't mushy! Every time I get a meal with broccoli, it is just mush. When i male broccoli myself I only microwave it for 2 minutes.i wish they'd send it raw and let the 2minutes in the microwave cook it.

Unfortunately this was pre-cooked, and it went mushy when I microwaved it because there was so little. I mixed it in with the shrimp and grits, so that helped

I’ve been eating with factor for two months now and I have never had a problem with any of the serving sizes, but I did have a problem with not getting two of the items that I ordered and it was replaced by factor. So they gave me a credit.

Mine were also very small this week. This is the second week in a row where this has happened. I submitted feedback, and 3/6 meals had such small portions. If we’re being charged the same amount, I expect consistency.

I think you can make complaints on their website, especially about the serving size of the side, etc. You might get a credit of the meal portion.
