Metabolic MealsReviews of mymetabolicmeals.com

Notably sub-par for delivery meal plans. Unimaginative offerings, haphazardly packaged, some meals unlabeled, unmemorable for the price, visually unappetizing. If you loved that Economy Class meal on your last international flight you'd probably bet OK with these. I give 2 stars because it was super easy to cancel my subscription.

Decent meals, and GF since we need that, but sneaky subscription tactics, beware! We tried Metabolic for a few weeks, ordering the minimum of six meals each time we ordered. The meals were okay, some kind of small portions so left me hungry. Appreciate the lower salt, but otherwise the spicing is very mild and not very interesting. Not gourmet, as advertised. I did enjoy the meatballs. My wife also appreciated the diabetic low carb meals. Mainly, got burned by the fact that we missed one week's order deadline. The site does say if you miss the deadline they will send you meals they choose. I got distracted by holiday prep and missed a deadline by one day. They made out an order for *eight meals*, including some that were extra protein so more costly. When I called was told that the order had "already been processed" so could not be cancelled. She did give us credit for the two extra meals. What they DON'T tell you until you cancel is that you can go on-demand, and that if you forget or don't choose to place an order they just skip that week and don't charge. VERY poor business model, folks! You could be transparent and give us a choice up front to choose a "must respond each week" or be penalized, or an order on-demand as you offered when I cancelled. Your way of doing it is sneaky. I urge caution if you use this service and pay attention to what they are demanding of you!

Signed up, selected and received my first batch of meals — no issues so far. Next thing I heard from them is my pre-selected meals for the following delivery cycle. Never received any communication about when and how to select them. I reached out about it, saying I would have liked to be notified, and they just said, "It's a subscription, this is how it works". No accountability for a poor user experience. The food is decent but very over-priced, especially considering the meals are small along with a $20 delivery charge if you order less than 15 meals, bringing the per-meal cost to about $16-17, and about $25 per meal if you want more than 500 calories per meal.
