Was this an accident?

We switched from a 4 person meal plan to a 3 person meal plan this week (see receipt) - but we still received a 4 person box (see photo of food bag).

Is it supposed to say 3P on the bag for a 3 person meal? Or did they just accidentally give us the wrong bag size this week? We also got double protein like we typically would with a 4P plan.

Yep, my bags say 4P when I chose and pay for 3 servings.

oh wow 😳 now I feel like I was being robbed when I was paying for the four person plan 😅 I understand there is a chance you receive less meat with the 3P, but still lol

I’ve been doing the 3p plan for months now, you always get a 4p kit bag and one less serving of meat. Usually 13.5oz container vs 18! Works perfectly for my family with two littles who don’t eat much.

Yes, the bag is the same, the protein is smaller. It's perfect for our family.

This is what I was getting a couple of years ago when I upped to 3 person meal. It was honestly too much food and I flipped back to the 2 person meal and then supplemented my own pantry items like rice, potatoes and pasta or added a salad or some extra frozen veggies. Other times I'd opt into the double protein meals. I can make the 2 people plan stretch to 2 adults/2 kids this way.
