MACROS
Best for: Macro tracking with fresh, portion-controlled meals
Suits people tracking numbers who want fresh, calorie-controlled or high-protein meals with the macros clearly printed on every dish. Best value comes from curated 7 or 10 meal packs and orders over $150 to avoid the delivery fee.
- Full macro breakdown and per 100g nutrition panel shown on every meal, plus calorie and protein tiles on menu tiles
- Two portion sizes: 300g calorie-controlled meals from $11.70 and 350g meals from $12.20
- Meals arrive fresh, never frozen, with no added preservatives or colouring
- No lock-in: skip, pause or cancel anytime, with 5% off recurring orders
- Delivery is largely metro only across about 1,900 postcodes, so regional addresses often miss out
- $15 flat delivery fee unless you spend over $150, which pushes small orders up
- Menu is around 50 dishes, smaller than some larger competitors
- Curated packs are cheaper per meal than picking your own, so choosing freely costs more
Muscle Diets
Best for: Goal-based fitness meal packs without subscription lock-in
Suits east coast gym-goers who want portion-controlled meals matched to a weight loss, maintenance or muscle gain target without committing to a subscription. The lack of published pricing and macro detail makes it harder to compare against rivals before you start an order.
- 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
- Meals made fresh weekly with no added preservatives, and a 110% refund promise
- 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
- No stated allergen, gluten free or lactose free guarantee due to shared kitchen
