Hey @cbognet - sounds cool. Do you partner with any other nutritional companies as well to provide more intricate/unique superfoods & supplements; or is everything based from what can be purchased at WholeFoods? Best of luck!

@dannyfiorentini Hey Danny! Whole Foods has over 20,000 different items these days, so creating nutritious menus from their ingredients provides a lot of good variety. And food is definitely the best source of micronutrients. Our nutrition coaches will also make supplementation recommendations based on your dietary preference (e.g., B complex for vegetarians and vegans). Thanks for the well wishes!
Danny Fiorentini
@cbognet Right ok - reason for the question was to see if you guys are going to partner with external companies as well as WholeFoods down the line if it makes sense, to provide additional specialty ranges.

I like the idea .... what is your strategy to scale this product as different region will have different eating habits / dishes ?
Christina Bognet
@_vineetshukla We have a good number of international users already but we're always adding new recipes to accommodate more users with different tastes.

Really like the idea. Only thing that stood out for me was the fact that pricing is not mentioned until you provided an email already and go through the survey portion. Once you get to the pricing, it's very fair.
Christina Bognet
@zaccoffman Thanks, Zac! Would love to have you try the product.

Sounds great from the comments. Downloaded the app in Australia to have a look, and it has a signup for current customers only. It doesn't have the option to create an account or see what it has to offer beforehand, so it's a delete for me.
Christina Bognet
@heidi_helen Hey Heidi - yes, you need to create an account via platejoy.com on web and then you can sign in via the app. Sorry the confusion - it's an iOS rule with a service like ours.

I just tried out the planner - extremely well designed with some great looking recipies, but in all honesty, I think "kid-friendly" is a pretty massive stretch for most of the meals. At least with the options I picked - I didn't get one back I know my children would eat :) Still, a really cool looking service, and would definitely be something that I would just try out if it were planning only for me and my wife.
Christina Bognet
@jesse_wallace Thanks for this feedback, Jesse! We promise the recipes are kid tested and approved so you might be surprised :) But if there are things you know your kids won't eat, you can exclude any ingredient(s) at all from your personalization quiz (e.g., chia seeds) and you won't see meals that contain them.

I love it. I'm not a creative cook, but my meals are not boring now! Thanks Platejoy! And I don't have to worry about whether they are healthy.

Now a more important question: WHEN ARE YOU COMING TO STOCKHOLM?!
Christina Bognet
@tomasmazetti Hey Tomas! We have customers in Stockholm!! The Instacart integration won't work there, but everything else will :)
Tomas Mazetti
@cbognet awesome, you will be huge here, like everywhere else. /Love from the entire Wheelys team!

At Happy Belly Health, we love Plate Joy! In fact, we find it so vital to healthy meal planning that we gift subscriptions to our clients. Our clients get inspired to create a variety of awesome meals with an abundance of recipes suggested by Plate Joy. Additionally, they don't even have to come up with grocery lists because Plate Joy does it all. So, if you have dietary restrictions galore, this is the system to use. It'll make healthy eating VERY EASY!
