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
Youfoodz
Best for: Busy households wanting fresh, no-prep meals with a big weekly menu
A strong pick if you want fresh heat and eat meals with plenty of weekly variety and dietary ranges from calorie controlled to high protein, and you live in a metro area or a decent sized regional centre. The catch is pricing transparency: you will need to run a postcode and plan size through checkout to see what you actually pay once the introductory offer ends.
- Large rotating menu with 40 to 80 items a week plus snacks, juices and desserts
- Meals are fresh, never frozen, ready in about two minutes and keep up to 9 days in the fridge
- Coverage across all states and territories, including a long list of regional centres
- No lock-in contract: skip, pause or cancel before the weekly cut-off, and a registered NDIS provider
- Per meal prices are not published upfront: you must enter a postcode and pick a plan size to see them
- Marketing leans heavily on a 12 week introductory discount, so the ongoing rate is hard to judge
- Tasmania and the Northern Territory get limited coverage and only one to three delivery days a week
- Shipping is charged and varies by location, with higher fees possible in regional areas
