Good breakdown and points u brought up i havent heard anyone bring up in their comparisons. thanks.

I know nothing of Fresh N Lean, but Factor is a mixed bag. Once you've tried almost all the meals you quickly learn which meals you want regularly, semi regularly, and which meals you don't want anymore. So when you get that email It's Time to Edit Your Meals, make sure that you do. Because if you don't they will send you meals you may not like.

Thanks for this excellent review: I was trying to compare those same 2 meal services and couldn't find details like portion size/weight ANYWHERE. Would love to hear an update now that you've been using Factor for a couple more weeks.

I completely agree with you. I have tried both and find factor to be more varied and satisfying. Love the review, you’re a thorough person.

Tried Fresh n lean vegan and it was awful. Terrible recipes and flavors were off. I felt there wasn’t enough food, the packaging was very difficult to open and the steam burns your hand when you are trying to open the thick plastic. Canceled service, didn’t like the food, the packaging or the price.

It’s worth considering that Fresh N Lean uses primarily organic ingredients which is not an option for factor. Also, the packaging for FNL (as annoying as it is to cut) is great because it shows when the food has gone bad (when it inflates, it is bad). Additionally, vacuum packing removes air which keeps the food fresher for longer.

A great informative and well researched review thanks brother I just ordered factor today

I haven’t had a problem with either. However I liked Fresh N Lean better. It’s all just a personal preference type deal. I also noticed they care more about customer feedback at FNL which is good for bettering their product.

What’s your experience with factor in terms of the meals they send you? I was paying for 18 meals and it was three months of me getting 6-10 meals in the huge box. They wouldn’t give me an answer on what was going on and refuse to refund me and will only give me credit. I stopped the service as they will always miss sending 18 meals

What's the meal tray container? Dimensions and oz

I currently use Fresh N Lean. What I like most is that the vacuum packing makes the food last longer. This is handy for unpredictable meal scheduling. Sometimes I eat a meal more than a week after it arrives and shrink the following order by the number of leftover meals. The extra air in the Factor trays should mean faster spoilage. That said, I didn't realize the Factor meals were larger at the same price. Also, I see that Factor added free shipping at some point between this video publication and today. I just might give them a shot!

What have been the bad you've heard about experiences?

I've only tried Factor, so I can't do comparisons, but I really like most of the meals. I've been getting the meals for about 3 months now and I've learned which type of meals I like the best. The one this guy is using as a comparison is really good, the pork tenderloin with cheesy red cabbage and garlicky green beans. Very good!

I'm now trying fresh n lean vs Factor because I feel the meals have become repetitive, they rely so much on corn, and the amount of carb is just too high.

Ive just ordered my first fresh n lean box. My husband and I do Keto and while I enjoyed the keto meals factor offers, he didnt because 90% of their keto meals are full of cream cheese. FNR has way more keto options without being full of cream cheese

I’ve used quite a few Factor meals. I found them to range from Fair to Very Good. Maybe one or two were Excellent, but I didn’t have any that I’d rate as awful.

I used factor 3 years ago and loved the food however as you mentioned more than once the food arrived semi thawed and the sauces dripped out and onto the other packages. Factor cheerfully refunded those 6 or 7 packages but it was a little disturbing.

Awesome Video. First box of Factor comes Monday 💪

Very informative. Thank you!

Can fresh n lean be cooked on the stove instead of microwave?

So thorough, thank you!

The only thing that is going to make me choose FNL over Factor is the fact that delivery day is on Saturday. Why would you deliver meals mid-week? That's annoying. I eat meals Sunday - Friday and then go out on Saturdays. FNL is perfect for that schedule!

I was hoping you were going to endorse Factor. I signed up for Factor's Keto "friendly" meals for health reasons. I initially went shopping for keto friendly foods after my doc said I was pre-diabetic, and they aren't cheap. If you can find them. $1.60 for regular spaghetti sauce turns into $5.00 not to mention the same for the keto pasta and on and on. So when you look at the per meal prices you should FACTOR that in (unintended). Not to mention the time spent staring at labels in supermarkets which is nearly void of low carb choices. It' not an easy transition trying to break years of disregarding carb counts and old shopping habits. So in that regard these meals are a blessing since you can speed your dietary changes in the time it takes to receive your first box. And so far everything has been delicious. I may be in the "honeymoon" phase so time will tell, but for now I'm satisfied. Thanks for doing this comparison and more or less confirming my choice after a long period of research.

I have tried factor a couple of times and I've not liked anything yet. But am waiting for fresh and lean to give free boxes to try.

I signed up for flex-pro meals. More than 30 different dishes you can choose from. If you order on Monday, food arrives next day. So far so good. Should give it a try.

Why didn’t you weigh the factor package

I've tried both and I love Factor!!!!!

can Factor meals be frozen?

I've tried both and Fresh N Lean's stuff definitely looks better and is in more attractive packaging. But truthfully, the food tasted okay at best without salt. And I found myself pretty hungry after meals. In contrast, almost every Factor meal I've tried tasted great out of the box and I was usually satisfied hunger-wise. I'm on week 2 of Fresh n Lean but I'm canceling and going back to Factor.

And they can legally be 20% off with the calories and nutritional information so it could be 300 calories who know

And i feel like you shouldve mentioned how massive the meals look on the website compared to imperson like damn that meal was 4 bites 💀

i use cook unity

Why would adding your own salt even be an issue?

I noticed some of fresh n lean meals are highly processed when I look at ingredients

Fresh n Lean far preferable for food safety and dietary needs for people with medical needs. The low sodium of fresh n lean and low calories are by far superior. - s/ RNC

All of the things that did not work for your diet work excellent for me with Fresh n Lean. I subscribe to their keto meals, and the no/extreme low salt, and low calorie meals are exactly what I needed to eat healthier, reduce salt intake, and lose weight. 400 calories per meal 2 x per day is perfect for me to stay under 1100 calories per day. Add a protein shake for breakfast and voila!

I have been subscribing to Factor for months. I like them. Never had a package leak. I also subscribe to CookUnity. I like them too. Actually I prefer them than Factor. I go back and forth between those 2. Would not want to try FreshNLean. I hate their packaging. So unappetizing and super small portions.

So you basically can't view the meals without ordering. 😂

I personally don’t recommend factor. They’re Macros are all over the place no matter what type of diet you choose. And your left hungry after eating. I will give it to factor on flavor but I don’t see it to be worth it.

For the weight issue, it’s because they don’t weigh an individual amount of food per meal when cooking. They made a large batch when starting the company, divided the food into containers, and got a few of them sent off for nutritional analysis (which includes weighing). I started a jerky company with a friend and we had to do the same thing because it’s under the category of CPG (consumer packaged goods). You only do the nutritional analysis once for that specific meal and then afterwards it seems they are throwing in “eyeball” amounts, which I agree is a sloppy practice for this type of company.

400 calories and onlly 20gs of protein 😭😭😭 what are we feeding children?

10:27 omg 20💀 i swear to god i thought the same thing before you mentioned it. The fda guide lines allows them to do that bs. You shouldn't be allowed to lie to consumers like that

Fresh n lean is bankrupt. Their kitchen had no management. Factor 75 was interested in using some excess factory space. Once they witnessed the facility and many of the employees. They said no. F n L left 200 employees without 3 weeks of pay. In Moosic Pa. Bad management. They have a new plant in Arizona. Merged with hello fresh. Under the umbrella of NutraCorp. Eat at your own risk

This kind of food should be available all over this country but we live in hell. America is like hell. Everything is unhealthy... dangerous... deadly...
