Marley Spoon
Best for: Families and couples who enjoy cooking but want the planning and shopping done for them
Suits households that want to cook from scratch without planning or shopping, with enough weekly variety and dietary filters to keep everyone happy. Less suitable if you want heat-and-eat convenience or live outside a capital city catchment.
- Very large weekly choice, with 200-plus recipes plus ready meals and Market grocery extras
- Plans scale from 1 to 6 people and 2 to 6 meals a week, so it suits singles and big families
- Preference filters for high protein (40g+), calorie conscious (under 599 cal), carb conscious, vegetarian and GLP-1 support
- Flexible subscription: skip, pause or cancel with 7 days notice
- You still have to cook: most recipes take 20 to 45 minutes
- Shipping is $11.99 on top of the box price, which stings on smaller orders
- Delivery is limited to metro and surrounding areas of the major cities, with no NT coverage
- Premium recipes cost extra per serving on top of the standard rate
My Foodie Box
Best for: Households wanting an Australian owned meal kit with dietary filters and eco packaging
A local alternative to the big meal kits for households that want to cook, with grass fed and free range sourcing and strong dietary filtering. Worth checking the price at your chosen box size, since the small box rate is well above the advertised starting price.
- Weekly menu of roughly 27 to 40 recipes with filters for low carb, low calorie, gluten free, dairy free, vegan and vegetarian
- Choice of 2, 3 or 4 serve portions and 3 to 5 recipes a week, so it scales from couples to families
- Recyclable and compostable packaging, plus the old box is collected when the new one is delivered
- No lock-in contract: skip, pause or cancel before the Monday cut-off
- Flat $9.95 delivery fee on every box adds to the cost of smaller orders
- Per serve price of $15.33 on a small 2 serve, 3 recipe box is steep next to the $6.25 headline rate
- No kilojoule or macro figures published alongside the menu, only dietary tags
- Delivery is limited to selected eastern states and WA rather than nationwide
