Re:Blue Apron falls 9% on fourth day as a public company by skinnymuch on Thursday July 06, 2017 @12:48AM (#14708202)
Always these comments :p. Obviously we both know the poster was just making a point that you could possibly do Blue Apron only for home meals.

I don't care for food. I know most people do. Most people care about variety and possibly some sort of cooking sometimes. I do cook chicken in bulk, but that's a pretty quick process. Otherwise I'm perfectly satisfied having the same 2 meals whenever I am at home for those meal times. One of them includes Soylent, the other includes 1-2 glasses of milk.

I can still go out and enjoy social lunch or dinner with business acquaintances or friends.

If you don't care about food, why are you responding?

The only value adds Blue Apron gives are pre-portioning, recipes, and delivery.

That might not be worth 594 million (at last count).

Simply because you don't care about food doesn't mean nobody else does - in fact, you said that most people do care about food.

Exactly what value does your comment add to the conversation?

I responded to someone saying Blue Apron for home meals seems dystopian. How is my comment not relevant or adding on to the conversation? Blue Apron for your home meals does not seem dystopian to me. I'm replying to that notion.

That answers both of your quite condescending questions.

Guess you never wanted to let us know how your comment added any value to the conversation, huh? Or why you responded?
