Does anybody use Mom’s Meals (R) ?

Anybody use MOM’S MEALS (R)

Either for themselves or for someone or several, perhaps, for which you are caring ?  

What do you think of the meals?  What about service?  I would also be interested to know if your use them as a single person, small group or perhaps even an institution.

 

Thanks to anybody who would like to reply with some incite.

My 34 yr old daughter receives these. 

Lots of hydrogenated soy oil on vegies - salty & greasy - disgusting !

Some of meals are OK  as supplements.  

Not the best, not the worst.

Last year at this time I was caring for a friend with cancer. I was at his house three times a week for over 18 months. One of the times was to take the mom’s meals delivery in and replace the older ones in his refrigerator. He only ate some of them. I tried them and wasn't overly impressed but at least it was food, I didn't like throwing so much of it away, so I brought them to our local food bank. After a few months the food bank asked me to stop bringing them because no one was picking them up which was a surprise to me.   We   have “Meals on Wheels” here in our town so I would investigate something like that before I would use moms meals, although in a pinch I think they would do  The service was good, they packed for shipping using cold packs, again a lot of waste.

Yes, this was “in a pinch”. however, I decided not to use them and opted for Hello Fresh instead.

My mom has received Mom's Meals since 2022. She finds that they are okay as long and she's able to use them as a complement to fresh made meals. Mom's Meals are all frozen. They do have different menus for specific dietary needs and they have been very helpful when my mom has called to ask questions or change something. I hope this helps.

 I have used them before for my brother. When I asked him how was the food, he said that it was good, better than he thought, and he is picky when it comes to food. 

I placed the order online and they sent a confirmation email. The food arrived well packaged with ice packs/dry ice. I hope this helps.

Thanks, @KarenP721140 

Good to know -

Were his meals just the regular kind or a special dietary needs meal ?

TIA

You're welcome!

His meals are special dietary meals.
