    Friends, a reminder that Green Chef is great option for ppl with disabilities that can struggle with usual shopping and cooking. I am autistic with adhd and multiple mental illnesses, and doing a regular grocery shop is a big struggle. Cooking can be really hard with executive dysfunction to the point where I often just do not eat anything, and food waste is also a massive issue with how forgetful I am, which makes cooking with fresh produce a struggle. Having recipie cards and pre portioned ingredients is incredibly helpful and I will def be looking in to Green Chef! I really struggle with giving my body regular good nutrition. Plastic waste is never ideal but for disabled ppl, trying to avoid plastic can be detrimental.
    Thank u for the video Maddy!!

      @radoslayoufo 2 года назад +6

      I think the idea is not something special because you can check some asda, tesco, co-op or whatever recipes and make an order from the specific store. But the amount of plastic of this green chef box was the first thing I'd noticed and I am totally agree with you.

    • @mmmmmmolly
      @mmmmmmolly 2 года назад +3

      I was thinking the same thing but to be honest most of the packaged stuff from the box is packaged the same way in the stores where i live. They could use biodegradable materials though, that's true.

      If it helps someone transition to being vegan, the benefits of eating vegan and low food waste will far outweigh the plastics. And helpful for people with disabilities etc. There are a number of reasons someone would benefit from having a meal box.

I personally wouldn’t use the services of the food delivery companies because of all the single use packaging that is used. But if the benefit is an increase in people cooking wholesome and healthy meals then it’s a good compromise. Hard time swallowing that.

    This is fantastic to help with food waste, helping people transition to vegan. Help people who have been struggling with getting balanced meals. Help people looking for inspiration for new meals for their arsenal. Help people with executive dysfunction disorders. Help people with disabilities eat fresh. Help people who can't get to the supermarkets at the moment. Help people with anxiety and depression by having their meals set for the week, and not having to make a decision of what to eat for dinner. Helps people who just like meal boxes and want fully vegan options.
    Maybe just chill on the poo-pooing because it's got plastic and think outside of your own life 🙃

    That mushroom pasta does look good! I tend to do a lot of weekend meal prep for lunches during the week because I eat lunch at work. And I have to be intentional and flexible because some days, I’m in my office at lunch time with access to a microwave and some days I’m eating outdoors or in my work truck. For outdoor days I generally go with a salad, sandwich, or a sort of “mezze” platter if you will of different things and dips. I also always make sure to pack a snack so that I can stave off getting hangry. Nuts are usually my go-to. Right now my favorite is pistachios. But I also recently found some roasted fava bean snacks I like. The sriracha flavor is my favorite.

    • @MadeleineOlivia
      @MadeleineOlivia  2 года назад +18

      I understand your point of view. Thank you for being kind and constructive with your feedback ❤️ I really appreciate it! I am open minded when it comes to plastic usage that for some this is a stepping stone to going vegetarian, vegan or cooking from scratch. Which in my view outweighs the single use packaging. Hopefully some of my audience will find value in a vegan food box like this to help them learn to cook with plants and have the time to do so in a step by step way. I am privileged in knowing how to cook from my mum, but there are many who haven’t had that upbringing or chance to learn. I am so careful about my sponsorships and felt this one aligned perfectly with my goal to help people to learn how to cook vegan meals in a simple way ❤️

    • @christineellul5748
      @christineellul5748 2 года назад +5

      Thank you for your reply 😊. I understand your point of view as well. Veganism itself is highly beneficial for our planet and I do agree, sometimes it outweighs plastic use.
      I'm sure by time this company can find ways and means to reduce single use plastic packaging. The idea is very cool indeed.

    • @PelyMyDream
      @PelyMyDream 2 года назад +8

      My first idea was the same as you : so much plastic waste !!
      But then I remembered, all (and all and all…) the ingredients I bought in order to try new recipies, and that I didn’t like after all. Ending up at the bottom of the food pantry, until the shame of buying something expensive that I don’t use was reasonable enough for me to accept to throw it away (no one in my family and friends wanting it).
      With this kind of box, you can try new food and see if you like it or not before buying it in large quantity. Of course, in my opinion, it is not a box to use every day of every month all year round ! But discovering new recipies and adding them one at a time to your diet seems a very good idea !

    Every time I tune in for your cooking (or shopping) videos I get so hungry for such special food! I cannot get foods like this in Central America . It is just not how people grow, sell or eat here - and of course there are no Green Chef grocers who deliver either 🤣 We have a small vegan community in my town (5 people I think) and some of us have successfully grown a few vegetables. Generally it does not work here and stores won't carry what people won't buy. The one time one Asian owned store agreed to order for us we bought as much as we could eat but it wasn't enough to repay the merchant. Conversion here will not be easy. Meanwhile I'll try to imagine what the lovely meals you make taste like. You are very blessed.

      @georgiap5159 2 года назад

      @@mollyb8136 thats absolutely not what I was trying to say and even said that these boxes can be really great for some people... My point was that these kits do use a lot of unnecessary soft plastic packaging - which is harder to get recycled as most councils will not collect it (systemic issue not individual) so you have to actively seek out a soft plastic recycling point. This is a pressure that should be taken off the consumer and companies and councils need to do better.
      These kits also have a very high price mark up, adding a barrier for working class people to access.
      Definitely not shaming individuals for using meal kits because they can be really useful, but as well as the issues above, this company has a bad reputation for the quality of its produce (sending food that hasn't been stored properly) and doesn't take responsibility for its own environmental impact. Again this is an issue with the company and a systemic problem, not an individual one.
