CookUnity review

CookUnity takes a different approach from the other prepared meal option, Factor. Instead of one in-house kitchen, it works as a marketplace for about 100 professional chefs, including restaurateurs and Food Network alumni, who sell their own dishes. That gives it up to 400+ meals to choose from, with filters for GLP-1, Pescatarian, Mediterranean, Vegan, Keto, Paleo, Low Calories and Low Carbs. Plans run 4, 6, 8, 12 or 16 meals a week, meals arrive chilled in recyclable containers, and you heat and plate them. CookUnity says it has delivered over 90 million meals to more than 1 million customers. Meals start at $12.59 each, the highest entry price here, so it fits singles and couples replacing restaurant takeout more than families feeding four on a budget.
