I actually enjoy picking out the produce at our local farmer’s market and there are only particular butchers I use. Like to know where my food is coming from.
I get that, and cooking is a very personal thing. What they struggled to get the “sharks” to understand was the meal plans actually are less expensive in the long run (according to them), because you don’t have to buy a 2 ounce container of multiple seasonings when you just need a pinch, or a small amount of each for a recipe you want to try. The “sharks” just weren’t buying it. Now these services are all the rage.
