Meal kits delivery services like Blue Apron and HelloFresh have seen tremendous growth, with the U.S. market expected to hit $19.92 billion by 2027 according to Emergen Research. However, users on subreddits like r/Entrepreneur often discuss limitations with current options:

“I tried Blue Apron for a while but got so bored of the limited menu options. I wanted more flexibility to choose recipes and customize based on my family’s tastes.”
