Strengths and trade-offs

Chefgood

Calorie-controlled weight loss with chef-style meals under 400 calories

Full macros and kilojoule counts shown on every meal tile, with most mains under 400 calories
Bulk pricing steps down as you order more, from around $11.20 per meal at 5 meals to $10.36 at 14
No lock-in subscription: pause or cancel before the Wednesday cut-off
Menu is around 40 to 60 items, smaller than some larger competitors
Free shipping only kicks in on recurring orders of $125 or more
Not available in WA or NT, so coverage is east coast plus SA and TAS

Chefgood review Visit site

Muscle Diets

Goal-based fitness meal packs without subscription lock-in

No lock-in: subscription is optional and the site states subscriber pricing never changes
Goal-based packs with clear calorie bands, from 320 to 400 Cal weight loss meals up to 420 to 550 Cal muscle gain meals
Menu of 50+ meals refreshed seasonally, including plant-based, high protein and low carb options
No pricing published outside the ordering tool, so you cannot compare cost without building a plan
Delivery limited to NSW, VIC, QLD and ACT, with no service to SA, WA, NT or Tasmania
Protein and full macro figures are not shown on the public pages, only calorie ranges

Muscle Diets review Visit site

THR1VE

Macro tracked low carb and high protein eating

Clear published price ladder: $12.95 per meal at 10, down to $9.95 at 25
Full macros and a per serve nutrition panel, ingredients and allergens on every meal
Chilled not frozen, ready in about 2 minutes, with a target of at least 7 days fridge life
Not national: no delivery to TAS or NT, and site pages conflict on whether SA is served
$89 minimum food order per delivery, so small top-up boxes are not possible
Single delivery window starting Saturday after a Friday pack, which suits weekend restocking only

How to read this comparison

Prices: The ongoing price at a typical order size: per meal for ready-made meals, per serving for meal kits. First-order offers and delivery fees are not included. Prices checked 24 August 2026. Confirm at checkout.
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.
