Chef-Curated Meal Services

'Real Life Food' Provides Fresh Prepped Foods for Busy Lifestyles

'Real Life Food' is a cleverly named meal subscription service that offers busy consumers with prepped food curated by chefs to be gourmet and sophisticated, while simultaneously eliminating the cooking time and clean-up. The meals are made fresh with real ingredients and pre-prepped so that all consumers have to do is warm the dish up. The use of wholesome ingredients, quality cooking and convenient packaging styles allow eaters to enjoy healthy meals without the need to set aside time to cook. This is ideal for a variety of consumers, from single dwellers to families.

The 'Real Life Food' products offer two different prep styles with one called 'Heat' and the other 'Eat.' The 'Heat' line allows consumers a bit more of a hands-on experience with the foods nearly fully cooked in bags that consumers simply safely boil to heat. The 'Eat' version is packaged to eat directly from the wrapping for on-the-go use.
