That meal kit subscription cost me $80 for three sad meals

Signed up for a weekly box thinking I'd save on groceries but the portions were tiny and I still had to buy extra stuff at Columbus Kroger to actually get full. Anyone else find meal kits are just a waste of cash for real budget cooking?

Oh man, I feel this so hard lol. I tried one of those kits for a couple weeks and ended up spending like $90 on a box that somehow had carrots in every single meal. The worst part was the portions - I'm a grown adult and I still had to cook extra rice or grab a sandwich after eating. And you're totally right about Kroger, I live near one too and it's way cheaper to just plan your own meals. Honestly I gave up on them and just started doing simple recipes with stuff I buy on sale.

Wait, $90 for a box with carrots in every single meal?? I would've been so mad lmao. That's wild they didn't even change up the veggies.
