My youngest heads off to college in a few months. I’ve thought about the Factor meals, since it will just be two of us.

Didn’t sound that bad, I went on website and put 2 meals a day, 5 days a week. It was 100 bucks.

Any experiences?

Tell her to watch her book bag closely at a campus dining hall. Book thieves target those places regularly. Stolen books are a big business at colleges.

I buy them. Great for on the go and it really puts in perspective how much a person really should eat.

No experience here, but I’d have to imagine them being relatively bland, that can be fixed.
Price is high but would allow y’all to eat different meals if you don’t agree on what you want. Also no prep and very little cooking time, and clean up.
I could see utilizing them, but not as everyday, twice a day nutrition.
Buy a weeks worth and stretch it two weeks…maybe.

Not bland at all. Sure, some taste better than others but majority of them are pretty good. They are about the equivalent to grabbing a meal out, yes more expensive compared to cooking it at home but about on par when you stop at a fast food joint, better food and less calories.

They don't have preservatives so most will only keep a week or so at best.

Cooked fresh, never frozen. Cheaper then a double double with fries from What-a-burger

All kinds of options, Paleo, Protein plus, etc

One of the better Indian butter chickens Ive had, also love the Jalapeño-Lime-Cheddar Chicken

Thanks for the offer. I think I get 15 percent off.

If I can get out with lunch and dinner for me and wife for 100 bucks a week. That’s a win.

A buddy was telling me about a local company called Icon. May give both a try.

They both offer similar discounts.

Cooking for 2 is so EZ, been just the wife and I since 2016 when youngest moved out.
On Saturday or Sunday grill up something like ribs, pork shoulder, big stew etc. Add a salad or vegetable and eat on it for 2-3 days. Find something else and do it again. You'd be surprised at how little it takes food wise to survive on. Might even drop a few pounds by accident if needed.

Good luck,

If it is just two of yall at home now will you have time to cook? I go back in forth between the HEB options and meal prepping, the HEB meals are $6-8 each and have 450-650 calories each. They taste good and are super easy to prepare. When I meal prep I average $2.50-3.50 per meal. I have looked at the local companies that provide premade meals. I have tried some, they are good but I cannot justify $11-13 per meal. i am not that busy at home. If you have an HEB close by check out their meal prep options.

Unfortunately, I didn’t marry her for her cooking skills. It would be the same 2 meals until I die.

After reading about the sodium content of some Factor meals I don’t think I would want to exist on them.

I am with Roll Tide on this one. Is there anything else I am missing out on? What are the other parts to a wife’s job?

Salt is a naturally occurring crystalline substance found on Earth. Sodium is a mineral, and is one of the chemical elements found in salt. Not the same thing. Sodium added to processed foods is a major contributor to high blood pressure in our society.

My wife got in the kitchen and learned how to cook by trail and error. I showed her how I like my steak cooked, and my food and she watched alot of video on Youtube and by trail and error.
