    Hi! I like what you ordered, I will try on how to cook that.

    Hi Lauryn! Once again you ordered the EXACT meals that got canceled on my order that I really wanted to see to know what they would have been. They were the Dijon Balsamic Chicken and the White Cheddar Chicken. I saw that Factor described the Dijon balsamic as having a "glaze" rather than a sauce. This seems to be something new that they just started. I saw it on another one, I think it was the Korean one. I hope they have it again but lately every new meal has been a "one of". I also wondered about the potatoes in Swiss cheese too and how it would have looked! So I got to see thanks to you. It seems everyone else reviewing Factor picks the "Sundried Tomato Chicken" to review or another very common one and so you see those over and over and I am saying to myself "Oh no, not again!" and they review none of the new interesting dishes like you do! I'll miss your reviews! I also wondered how that slice of white cheddar would translate onto the White Cheddar Chicken dish. It looked good. I want to try it. They just started using the pieces of chicken. It used to have the whole breast. And the Ragu one just started to come with just veggies on the side. They have had it a long time but with zucchini noodles (keto "zoodles"), but not the cauli kind that does have wheat in it. It's strange they eliminated the spaghetti part so you just eat the sauce alone. So anyway, thanks for your really fun reviews!

      Oh no! I am being so curious, why have your orders been getting canceled? I really hope they fix it for you with some credits or resending the meals!

      @@laurynfromtheLAB One thing that has just started happening is that if you choose a popular dish, like the Mahi and a couple of others and then you back in to edit your choices later, even if you don't change the Mahi, when you click to save the change they tell you that the Mahi is out of stock, even though you already had it in your box. So you lose the Mahi and so you can't make any changes to your choices unless you are prepared to lose something. Just now I lost the Turkey Reuben when I went in to change a different dish and it is saying it is sold out when I tried to save my change. That was the first time I saw a sold out on anything but the Mahi. BTW the Mahi is very dry, I thought. But you're done with Factor anyway, at least for now. So I emailed about losing my Mahi the first time and the rep replied by saying that he canceled my whole order for me, thinking that was what I wanted. But that wasn't what I wanted. I just wanted the Mahi put back. But of course I got credited.

      I’ve never heard of that, I’m assuming it’s another meal plan service?

    You like almost every meal but your title says cancel why is that??? Do you have to download the app just to get the food??? You should try and explain to people on how the whole ordering process works that would help a lot

      Because it’s pricey! Lol and I moved on to hello fresh and green chef just to try and review those. I’ve yet to edit my hello fresh videos
      You don’t need to download the app to get the food but it makes it easier to cancel, skip, or choose meals for the week.
      Maybe I’ll do that video, but my intention at the moment was just trying the foods because there are many others that do the ordering process video

      F_ FAJITAS STEAK is a solid 5 for me. Nice portion of a lean quality steak, totally suprised that it passed the microwavable test, just take it out of the refrigerator and let it rest for 10 minutes then 2:15 in the microwave. Not even Tuff at all just tender and Yummy.

    I won't be leaving any more comments but I just want to ask you why you never reply. You say you want to do this full time but you don't bother replying to comments at all.

      Hi Shari! Sorry I’m just now seeing this, but… lately RUclips hasn’t been notifying me of comments on my videos! I really do enjoy reading your comments :D
      On top of this, I did start a new venture as well 😁😁 I’m now doing personal training which I’m still learning how to find the work life balance with RUclips, being an engineer, and training people!

      Also the only other person that comments every video is my husband so I just let him know my appreciation in person! I hope that helps clear it up, but trust me, being an introvert, your comments are super appreciated 💕

      @@laurynfromtheLAB An engineer! Learning more and more about you and your many skills and talents! That's great. I went back and watched your Week 1 & 2 again and see that another person said the same thing as I did, that your reviews of Factor are so much better because it is a real review and you do (or did) so many different ones. You don't just say, "I like it," or "I don't like it." When I went back to the first two weeks, now I want to try the Mushroom Burger again. But I'm taking a break from Factor for a while. But for keto, it's really good. Because it has the high fat aspect not just the low carb. I think it's the only really correct one based on the original keto. I just read that there appear to be no long term downsides of the keto diet. It is found that it lowers triglycerides and raises the good cholesterol LDL. It also raises the bad cholesterol HDL but I guess net-net it is a good thing. So I suspect I'll come back. I did lose weight and was amazed that I did on that rich food. But I seem to be plateauing right now. Anyway, thanks for the reply! I'll watch the other meal box you are doing when you do those.

      I think I got that wrong. LDL is the bad cholesterol and HDL is the good one.
