“We have enjoyed the range of MFB meals for many months now. Over the last two months however we haven't had the freshest ingredients: 2 lots of the fish have been really strong-smelling when we opened the packet (ie definitely not fresh) and we have had sprouting potatoes twice, mouldy onions three times, a mouldy apple, and twice had tomatoes that went mouldy in the pantry before we were going to use them. Aside from that we have appreciated the gluten-free options, and the range of food options.”

“Needs to have a bigger range of variety of meals as every week the meals are quite similar. Would be good if you could select what menus you want each week as some we really enjoy then others are not to our liking.”

Hi Vicki, Thank you for taking the time to share with us your feedback and experience - we really love hearing how we can improve from our Foodies! I'm sorry to hear that the meal variety isn't meeting your expectations - it'd be great for you to communicate with our Development Kitchen staff by rating your recipes/giving recipe feedback from your account section so our team can ensure they're hearing your thoughts per recipe (this feedback really does influence future recipes they create). We love your meal-picking suggestion - thank you! We'd love to be able to offer Foodies greater variety in meals in future. At the moment, to reduce waste and avoid more packaging we share ingredients across recipes. We'd love to work towards greater flexibility and also maintain minimal waste/sustainability so we will absolutely keep working hard to be able to offer this to you in the short term! Thanks again for sharing these comments with us! We really appreciate you taking the time to write your thoughts, so we can continue to improve and learn from our Foodies. Cheers, Casey Cocoa

“Generally good, like the convenience. However find the meals quite similar. Ie varying spice on meat, a carb of some type ie roast veges or grain then basic vege, lots of spinach. My last order the two carrots were old and the spinach also. Very poor, considering most of the fresh veges have been good.”

“The convenience and variety are really good , despite the pricey factor you can’t beat it. I just get disappointed with the meat which is usually not the best cuts and therefore pretty hard to cook well.”

“I really love My Food Bag! The meals are incredibly delicious. Unfortunately their food quality has dropped a bit recently. Have started to get a couple of ingredients which are starting to rot, and delivery drivers can cause a few headaches. Would be 5 stars if these two things were fixed up”

“Hi Food bag team, Firstly thanks for providing an avenue for customer feedback! We have really enjoyed the food bag experience, we have journed with you for a year now: Loved the bbq bag Loved the winter meal However in recent time switching to the heat two cook two we have found there to be too many rice related recipes and have actually switched out to other options - vege based and pasta based.... We have also had dramas with our delivery- not dropping at the front door, instead a side road gate entrance that is not connected to the entrance of the house or driveway and one occasion losing our food bag delivery....last week the box was delivered wet (yes we did have heavy rain in chch over the weekend) but our front door wasn’t wet...? And the box fell apart when picked up? With the pasta sauce smashing on the front door step.... the behest were also in a bad state.... which we simply had to throw out.... so.... We love the idea and concept, and want to continue to support a fantastic idea, but from a small business owners experience.... it’s all in the delivery! Thanks and best wishes hopefully with a good foodbag experience this week to come. Cheers Sutton family”

Hi Davina, Thank YOU for taking the time to do so! We really appreciate feedback so we can continue to improve and provide a service relevant to our Foodies. We really do take this seriously, so thank you for writing your thoughts down for us! It's really great to hear your thoughts with regards to the Heat 2 Cook 2 carbohydrates. We can certainly review our usage and make sure we offer that variety that you suggest. The Fresh Start options are carb-lite so you may like to mix it up every other week, but I know this doesn't always suit our Foodies, so we can certainly look into the variety of our meals in the Heat 2 Cook 2! I'll be sure to pass your feedback on to our development Kitchen for improvements. I'm really sorry to hear about the disappointing delivery experience! I can see you've raised this with our Customer Love team who have escalated the issue, so I hope that issues have been resolved! This doesn't meet our expectations and we're not happy to hear it has been less that fantastic. We will be looking into this further to avoid anything like this in future. Thanks again for taking the time to talk with us - it's really valuable for us to hear your thoughts to be able to improve. Cheers, Casey Cocoa

“I’ve loved/ I’m loving not having to think about what to eat or shop for, having had a difficult year, and knowing the family will be well fed, However we are finding the variety is not quite there- shame we’ve had to lose the fish with going to heat and eat option. Also wondering how the heat meals will go through the summer. Will probably need to reconsider our options for the summer. With the cook meals, the flavour is not always there for us. The service has served s need, but may not meet our needs ongoing.”

Hi Priscilla, Thanks for taking the time to review us and provide us with some valuable feedback. It's great to hear that our service has been able to help you out in your life with regards to convenience and removing one more thing to think about on a weekly basis! I'll be sure to pass your requests for fish in the Heat 2 Cook 2 option to our Development Kitchen for consideration. It's nice to mix up proteins and I know that it may be coming up in future! Your request has been heard! :) You're welcome to swap out to try different bags on occasion to mix up the variety and meal types, I hope this is something that would meet your family's needs in future and would allow you to enjoy different types of produce throughout different seasons. Thanks again for taking the time to let us know your thoughts and for being a fabulous Foodie! Cheers, Casey Cocoa

“Having been a customer of My Food Bag for many years, it does simplify my life no end. But I have noticed the portion sizes are getting smaller. We are a family of 5 with three girls aged 13, 11 and 9yrs and we are not huge eaters. Would be good to see more generous portions.”

Hi Karen, Firstly, thanks so much for taking the time to give us some feedback - we appreciate hearing your comments and suggestions to be able to improve our service. Secondly, thank you for being such a loyal My Food Bag Foodie! It's fantastic to hear you've been using our service for a long time. I'm really sorry to hear that the portion size of our meals hasn't been enough for your family. The Family Bag is designed for 2 adults and 2-3 kids, but don't really define what 'kids' are - so we can certainly be clearer, whilst it is subjective! Our team suggests 'kids' are really up to 10 years of age, but we definitely could specify this and be clearer to avoid a similar instance occurring. Please accept my apologies that we haven't clearly communicated this. May I suggest reviewing the Classic Bag options or the Bargain Box Regular 5 options to better fill your family's tummies? This has been really valuable feedback we can make improvements on, so thank you for taking the time to complete this review for us! Thanks again for being a wonderful Foodie! Cheers, Casey Cocoa

Hi Aimee, Thanks for letting is know your thought on the Family Bag! We really appreciate feedback from our Foodies so we can continue to make improvements. We started pre-preparing some of the ingredients to help reduce meal prep time in our Family and Express Bags, but we can always look to include more quick dishes like wraps and pitas. I'll pass your ideas onto our Development Kitchen team for future consideration in the Family Bag recipes. Thanks again for being a fab Foodie, we love hearing from you. Cheers, Casey Cocoa

“My Food Bag is good most of the time. The great things are that it saves me going to different places to get good quality ingredients and keeps weekly meals interesting. It also means teenagers in the family don't have an excuse not to make dinner once or twice a week! We get the lite 20 which suits all the family as the boys can have an extra potato or a roll to fill them up - I find it versatile and suits everyone. Sometimes though the meals can be a little lacking in flavour and lately some of the vegetables have not been very fresh. The protein is generally good, but the beef can be tough and sometimes there isn't much fish - and would like salmon more! Often the garlic and ginger can be a bit rotten, and I have had rotten or slightly mouldy items too, eg like herbs, cauliflower, mung beans.”

Hi Shelly, Thanks so much for taking the time to give us some feedback - we really appreciate it! Great to hear you've been enjoying your Fresh Start Lite 20! It's a fantastic option that I'm happy to hear your family has been getting involved with. I'm really sorry to hear that the quality of the produce you've had with some of your vegetables, we'll go back to our suppliers make sure that it meets both yours and our expectations in future. We're recently been reducing our plastic use and have found that for some items, not having plastic wrapping can effect the life-span of the products so we're continuing to work to keep items fresh and reduce our plastic options. Salmon is delicious! I hear you - it's always nice to have some salmon in your weekly cooking! I'll pass this request onto our Development Kitchen for you. They'll be able to review how to incorporate into a under 450 calorie meal in the Fresh Start plans.
