Strengths and trade-offs

Dietlicious

Structured calorie-controlled weight loss plans with every meal supplied

  • Full day meal plans at set calorie levels (800, 800 keto, 1200, 1500) with breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks packed by day
  • No contracts or subscription: order only when you want, with a $75 minimum
  • Up to three meal swaps per plan, plus a Build Your Own Plan tool for full control over macros
  • Delivery limited to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra and connected regional areas, not all of Australia
  • Plans are delivered as a single upfront box, so a 7 day plan is a $269 or more outlay at checkout
  • Delivery is charged on top of the food price and varies by postcode

Gourmet Dinner Service

Aged care and NDIS funded frozen meals with no subscription

  • No subscription or lock-in contract: order only when you want
  • Snap frozen with no preservatives or additives, so meals keep for up to 4 months in the freezer
  • Over 100 dishes spanning single serves, mains for two, family sizes, sides and desserts
  • No published per-meal price list, so you need to browse the menu or enter a postcode to work out costs
  • $75 minimum food order plus a delivery fee on top
  • Delivery limited to NSW, VIC, QLD, ACT and SA, with no WA, TAS or NT coverage

My Muscle Chef

High protein, macro tracked meals for training and body composition goals

  • Large menu of 155 listed items including 70 plus meals, snacks, drinks and bundles
  • Calories, protein, carbs and fat are shown on every meal tile, plus filters for calories, carbs and protein type
  • No subscription required: meals can be bought individually and cart contents changed each order
  • Standard meal prices of $10.95 to $12.95 sit at the higher end for ready meals
  • Premium PRO range costs more again at $12.95 per meal
  • Delivery is suburb by suburb rather than truly nationwide, so remote addresses need a postcode check

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
