What the price is based on
Chefgood
10 meal plan (5 dinners + 5 lunches) on an ongoing weekly subscription. Individual meals are priced $11.20 to $13.90, most sitting around $11.75, with a 2% discount applied at the 10 meal size. The advertised $10.98 per meal applies only to the cheapest meals.
Gourmet Dinner Service
No retail per-meal price table is published; meals are priced individually across meals for one, mains for two and family sizes, with a $75 minimum food order plus delivery. The only figure given is 'prices start at $4 per meal' for Support at Home customers paying a 30% co-payment, which is not representative of a standard retail order.
Youfoodz
No price table was published: plan pricing only appears after entering a postcode and choosing a box size. The only figure shown is a promotional "from $9.29/meal" headline, which reflects the largest plan size and discounted rates rather than a typical ongoing 10 meal order.

Highlights
Green cells mark the lowest published price, the highest customer rating, the largest menu, the highest minimum protein, our highest score, and a Yes where the services differ. A row is only highlighted when every service compared has a value for it. Prices in different units and ratings from different review platforms are not highlighted.
Customer rating
Out of 5, with the review count and the platform the rating is from. It is a customer rating, not our score.
Our score
Out of 100: customer rating (35 points, weighted by review volume), disclosure of macros, calories and a real price (20), price against services of the same type (15), menu size (10), ordering flexibility (10) and delivery reach (10). Where a provider publishes nothing for a criterion, it is dropped and the rest are rescaled.
