You're right about not having to think about dinner being the real win. My brain just gives up after 5pm. I would probably just eat cereal for every meal if someone didn't plan it for me. The meal kit box showing up is like a friendly intervention. It stops me from staring into the fridge and then ordering a pizza out of pure frustration.
How many times have I stood there with the fridge door open just hoping dinner would magically appear? The meal kit thing works because it makes the first step, the deciding part, go away. I started keeping a couple super easy pantry meals on hand for the nights I just can't even look at a recipe card. Stuff like canned soup and grilled cheese, zero brain power needed. It stops that panic order before it happens.
