I like your write up on Daily Harvest. I tried Imperfect Foods and was delighted. Im on fixed income and can't afford them often but they sell all from organic chocolate covered broken pieces (one of my faves), to 3 in 1 shampoo/body wash! Those organic not so perfect/slightly blemished veggies have been just fine. You can shop it more like a market,
I don't subscribe to any. I've been tempted but I luv going to the farmers' market on weekends and to a well executed grocery store other times. Wondering if there's one to absolutely try, which one?
I too am canceling my Daily Harvest membership after 3 years. The quality of their items has gone down considerably while the prices go up. I realize we are all suffering from rising costs and fuel prices, but I would rather pay more and get better quality than have quality compromised AND have prices go up. I have complained numerous times about the quality of vegetables or the lack of QC in their company. It's really sad as this was a delivery service I really enjoyed.
Wow honestly this article comes at a weird time for me. Long-time Daily Harvest subscriber here and I am cancelling. They just switched shippers from UPS, who was very reliable, to Axlehire which is basically Uber for delivery drivers and I DID NOT RECEIVE MY FIRST BOX THROUGH THEM. That's not even why I'm cancelling though, I researched Axlehire and they are as exploitative as it gets of their workers which leads to missing/stolen packages and basically slave labor. I don't want any part of a company like Daily Harvest that's willing to contribute to this below minimum wage, gig economy bullcrap.
I Tried Daily Harvest: Maybe You Should, Too

Hi Laine / BP: Though they’re still limited to the DC metro area, I give a two thumbs up to Vegetable + Butcher.
