I actually did the Factor thing ones and it was so much plastic film and not enough food. Not trying to bash it, etc., but the way these "services" that are "dietician approved" purport to provide all that you need is really suspect and doesn't take into account that people need different things and different quantities at different times. The one perk was that I learned I like blanched green beans and now believe that is the only way to cook them lol.

I hear you on the need to stay local. I inhabit two worlds, Phoenix and the small Maine island where I grew up, and it’s imminently more difficult finding a community vibe in the big city. The general store on the island is basically the social network where we swap recipes and gardening tips over a slice of pie and coffee. I’m trying hard to capture that each time I return to Arizona but it remains elusive.
