Reviews

  • 5★ Convenient and tastes great, fairly priced. My favorites are the philly steak bowl, egg and bacon frittatas, and chipolte chicken. They even have just meat options so if you wanted a taco night but didnt feel like cooking, they already got you covered ^.^ — Eric McDaniel
  • 5★ Wow. That’s about the best way to describe it. There hasn’t been an item I’ve ordered that I didn’t absolutely love. I love the convenience of ordering online and picking up locally. I love the minimalist idea of having less ingredients and no garbage and the macros being listed on the packaging. I — Molly Jones
  • 5★ Almost done with my first week trying fed and can honestly say its made the best compared to factor and cook unity. My goal is to keep better track of my calorie intake and fed has made it simple when busy at work. The meals have been really good so far! — Danielle Outlaw
