First I'm not narrow-minded and second if they want to spend their hard
earned dollars on this type of thing, more power to them. They can
knock themselves out for all I care. But I will stand behind my
position that this is a stupid service meant to take money from stupid
people. They can get the *exact* same thing in other ways that have
been posted without having to take the extra time and money. Their
choice not mine. Now if I were to choose an easy way out, I would hire
someone to cook the meals in my kitchen with the ingredients I choose
with the recipes I chose. When I had homecare, that is what they did.
I'll bet you it was still cheaper than what these folks are dishing out
for using the service's kitchen. Heck you can even get a cook to come
in cheaper per serving than what this service is charging.
