HF is now charging me 2$ for a small head of broccoli if I want to swap out the carrots.
I hate carrots and green beans (always have, even as a kid). So, quite a lot of the meal sides are unappealing to me. It’s nice to have the option of swapping out the offending side for a side I love but 2$ for the swap is a raw deal. I’m also not seeing as many meals with broccoli as a side, as I used to a couple of months ago.

broccoli at walmart (my area) is $1. go get a head while doing your other grocery shopping and donate the carrots!

😳🤯 WHAT?!? This is a new low Hello Fresh. I haven’t ordered a box since August because everything was just trending downward. I felt the ingredient lists were thinning out, more and more meals had an upcharge, meals that used to contain a protein were suddenly vegetarian with an add-on option for protein at an extra cost, meal options got even more repetitive and boring, meat and produce quality decreased, you name it! As I skimmed the menu each week before ultimately skipping, I grew to just hate them. Charging for broccoli if you don’t want carrots is insanity. Broccoli, green beans, carrots, leafy green salads and the like are all the same. That’s like having to pay to upgrade to pearl couscous over jasmine ice. Hello Fresh is straight garbage and it’s a bummer because they used to have some awesome meals.
In my experience they always send both vegetables, so you’re actually paying for the extra second vegetable. I wish they were more clear about this stuff.
All I can say is, how do you not like carrots? Lol
