They often have fancy grass-fed beef for $6.99 (not that cheap, but was tasty when I got it once) and ground lamb or bison for $7.99-$8.99 a pound. It is not cheap for beef/chicken, but those options do seem to be really nice quality ones. If I get meat, I generally go for the seafood or lamb.

Produce wise, it is slightly cheaper than the store, and the convenience is great. (My husband doesn’t ike veggies, so he only stays in the produce aise long enough to grab onions.) For other categories, there may be slight discounts, but the brands are already nicer ones that cost a bit more than generic grocery store stuff, so it’s hard to compare.

I still get most of my meat from the store, though. I use Imperfect Foods more for the produce, snacks, and unique items hard to get from a local grocery store. I don’t need more than one box every two weeks. My favorite dish I’ve made from box items was a roast-red pepper salmon alfredo over rice. Their salmon is tasty!

Customer service has always been great for me as well if something is missing, the wrong box is sent, an item of produce has gone bad (that’s only happened for me once, but they gave me free extra avocados for weeks because of it), and so forth. I just email with pictures and they take care of it.

Other notes:

– They now take back their packaging if it can’t be recycled where you live (The silver bubble coolers and ice packs)

– With produce items the count/weight is a *minimum* – you might end up with extra! So if it says two limes you might get three, or 1b carrot you might get a pound and a half.

– I think they allow you to donate your box to a food bank, if you want

– It’s easy to skip shipments you don’t want, and to customize your order

– They track how much you’ve saved (roughly) environment wise. For example, I’ve apparenty saved 390 pounds of food from being wasted and15,600 gallons of water from being used.

The prices of Imperfect Foods aren’t great TBH. And since I usually have medium-sized orders, the cost of shipping tends to cancel out what little savings there are. Imperfect Foods mostly functions as a convenience service for me.

I’ve also gotten good customer service when I’ve had issues.

They are slowly expanding. I signed up way back when they were Imperfect Produce and only did produce – and it was about a three month wait for my area to be serviced. That was a few years ago, though – but they only serviced parts of three states. They’ve grown a lot since then.

It’s a great grocery supplement, though – I get it every other week, and it really cuts down on grocery runs. I paired it with the Smith Brothers milk sub for a while and barely needed to shop at all except for pasta/rice! Though that one I gave up on, as it was just too pricey for basic dairy stuff.

Those broken dark chocolate almond pieces are so good!!

I love their Hatch Chile corn chips! I expected them to be like tortilla chips, but they’re more like really light & airy Fritos, & the flavor packs a nice punch!
