This is a great idea for singles, couples, family with picky eaters and people that work long hours and don't have time to cook. Also for example like in my house I don't cook on Sundays but my 2 sons aren't in the mood to cook either. BTW what are you feeding your boy he grew up so quick.

In Poland we don't have frozen foods' delivery as such that I know of, but we do have a big market for frozen veggies, mainly due to our climate. I have my fave brand that I grew up with, and I'm pretty loyal, manly due to their quality. And you can buy everything frozen - from bags of single veggies, fruit to whole pasta dishes, soups, meals with meat, pierogi and dumplings. It's convenient, and in winter I often make batches of meat and just use different frozen veggies every day. However, I have recently used Allegro - kind of a Polish Amazon - to buy some Polish artisan pickles (a bit like tsukemono, no vinegar) with delivery to my local parcel locker. It came in a box with an ice-pack and all the glass jars were intact. So, I guess it's an option now, too.

Here in Germany we have multiple delivery services for frozen goods including meals, but they're delivering on a (bi-?)weekly schedule not on-demand the next day.They've existed for a long time and I remember my grandma (and for a little while also my parents) receiving deliveries. I'd say the product quality is quite good for some ingredients (like vegetables and fruits) and bakery products as well as ice cream but the frozen meals are not only underwhelming but rather expensive, too. It certainly is convenient not having to haul frozen stuff from the supermarket home but other than that I don't have any use for such services.

@slavetobloodcomic 2 жыл бұрын

Most frozen/ ready meals in the UK come from supermarkets, most of which have online shopping for home delivery, so it would be hard to compete with them. What has increased here is subscription services for specialist food boxes, such as farm foods, locally grown fruit and veg, meats, or particular cuisines (for instance, one of our local Michelin star restaurants does a food box sub for Indian dishes).
