Well, they’re amazing time-savers, first and foremost. You don’t have to deal with going to the grocery store nearly as often since they deliver everything you need to make dinner.

These services are ultra-convenient for people with busy work schedules (and busy lives, for that matter). You place your orders online for however many meals you’d like per week, and some outlets even offer options for breakfast and lunch. Then, all you have to do is wait for it to show up at your doorstep and you have everything you need to make a home-cooked meal.

It’s also a great way to practice portion control. There are only as many servings in the box as you buy, so it’s a good tool to utilize if you struggle with overeating. There are also tons of options for healthy boxes that can help you say “no” to ordering pizza.
