I was introduced to PlateJoy about a year ago. I needed food ideas that were simple yet tasty.
*enters PlateJoy*
This app has been a game changer for me. It accommodates my dietary restrictions while offering a variety of meals from all cultures. I get a shopping list and recipes each week and everything is user friendly.
Because of PlateJoy, I've prepared things I've never heard of and have enjoyed each bite along the way! Customer service is always helpful and friendly. I'm always so excited to taste what I've prepared and sharing the awesomeness with friends.
Do yourself a flavor and give PlateJoy a shot. You won't be disappointed 😋😋😋

Platejoy has changed my home life! My husband and I both work full time, we have one toddler, and one newborn. Life is crazy. Platejoy eases the craziness by allowing me to skip the one hour a week planning out our meals. I just have to log on, get a menu and bam, we have our meals for the week. The menu is right on par to what we want to eat and the ability to customize based on cook time is a real plus. I absolutely plan to review my membership when its time. Thank you PlateJoy!
So much spam in the comments. Platejoy, hunted by "GaryVee" - 16 glowing reviews all from fake accounts, all who have only ever upvoted PlateJoy. PH obviously allowing it, maybe due to $$$, but it's just so disappointingly obvious. Just thought you should know. This comment will likely be buried.
@itsjoeturner You're 100% wrong, Joe. Gary is a real person (one of our investors) and we emailed the link out to our customers when we launched on Product Hunt yesterday - many created accounts to comment. But I guess it's a good sign that the comments are so good you think they're fake. :)

I love PlateJoy! Makes meals manageable and cheaper. The level of personalization is unlike anything else out there.
Congrats on the launch!
What do you think is the most misguided dietary advice?
Will you please start an advice column?
Thanks,

I started a healthy weight loss journey at the beginning of 2016 for my wedding that September. I was working out, eating well, and losing weight. About ten pounds from my goal, though, I found myself super bored with the foods I was cooking and unable to lose those last few pounds. I had been a serial pinner on Pinterest but I still fell back into the same dinner routines and grocery store purchases. I stumbled across PlateJoy and signing up was one of the best decisions I could have made. It was incredibly cheap (less than two cookbooks and way more personalized!). It allowed me to select meal plans that were pescatarian (sea + vegetarian) and healthy! It portioned the food out for my fiance and myself, with nutrition guides for both of us. It allowed me to add back in carbs and fats in a healthy way that I had previously been denying myself. The best part though, was they sent the shopping lists to Instacart for my in home shopping convenience.
So with a few months left, I made four easy, healthy, exciting dinners with the click of a few buttons in my instacart app each and every week! I easily dropped the weight and felt even more nourished and excited about the foods I was eating. Months after the wedding I am still using my PlateJoy app. It might not be every week I request a new menu, but even on off weeks, I find myself pulling up old recipes I've had on PlateJoy to make. It makes me feel like a professional chef and my husband is certainly happy with the results too :) I have recommended PlateJoy to anyone who will listen, including my sister who just had her first child and is looking for specific healthy meals while still nursing. We signed her up and looked together and they even had dinner recipes for her! Amazing!
You really should try it out. You won't regret it.
Just to make a suggestion: I could really use this kind of plan, however all options are multiple choice, and therefore is not very tailored to any individual. For example, i have a problem where i cannot eat: nuts, dairy, gluten, dried fruit, and most proteins that are not ocean-based, but there is nowhere in the app for me to explain that. 😟
@nassaraf Hi Naomi! There is! You can exclude nuts, dried fruit, and any proteins you'd like by searching for those ingredients in the exclusion ingredient search bar. There are also two questions about excluding gluten and dairy so you can do the same too. Feel free to email us if you need more help with this: service@platejoy.com
@cbognet@platejoy Hi Christina. Sorry, I really can't find where I can enter that information. Maybe you can point me in the right direction? Happy to also move this offline to my name at gmail. https://www.evernote.com/l/AefEx...
@nassaraf@platejoy Hi Naomi - the questions around excluding foods and following certain diets are further up on that page - questions 2-5. Feel free to email us at service@platejoy.com if you still have trouble!

The primary flow works, until you start customising stuff. It is insanely frustrating the amount of bugs in the system and it is impossible to do anything.
