Factor review

Factor is not a meal kit in the strict sense: meals arrive fully prepared, fresh and never frozen, and heat in about 2 minutes. That makes it the pick for people who want the convenience of a subscription without cooking. Each week Factor offers 100+ dietitian-designed meals and add-ons, with menus for low carb, vegan and vegetarian, high protein, meals under 550 calories and a GLP-1 menu. It also offers 70+ add-ons such as breakfasts, smoothies and snacks, and free nutrition coaching sessions with a dietitian. Factor's own comparison page puts it at roughly $11 to $15 a serving, and a shipping fee applies on every delivery, so it costs more than cooking a kit. It works best for single people or couples who would otherwise order takeout.
