Purple Carrot review

Purple Carrot is the plant-based choice on this list: its whole menu is 100% plants, and it says it has been delivering for 10+ years. One weekly delivery can mix meal kits, fully prepared meals, frozen meals, grab-and-go breakfasts and protein add-ons such as plant-based chunk steak. Each week includes options with 30+ grams of protein, 10+ grams of fiber and under 600 calories, and recipe cards show protein and fiber, for example 54g of protein in a seitan hamburger dish. There are 4-serving family bakes for larger households. Sign-up is free with no commitment, you can skip a week or cancel anytime, and Purple Carrot promises to make it right if an order arrives late or not as expected. The site shows a rating of 4.6/5 from 50,000+ reviews. For this list's angle the gap is price: Purple Carrot does not publish per-serving prices on a public page, so we could not verify a starting price. Vegan households will still find the most complete plant-based menu here.
