@sebastianwerz@chai_mishra I appreciate you offering a pescatarian option; but it seems quite a major oversight to try and launch this is in Silicon Valley without offering a pesca-pescatarian option. - What's your timeline for adding that look like?

@_jacksmith@sebastianwerz Can't believe we missed that! Rest assured, we're launching a full-scale fish-finding mission, focussed solely on edible varieties of fish that in turn live entirely off of fish. More details to come.
@_jacksmith@sebastianwerz@chai_mishra great point! Also one more quick question, sorry if somebody already asked and I did not catch that, do you plan to include recipes sometimes in the near future ?
I was actually thinking about how can I make my life easier by not going at the grocery story every Sunday ( unless its something specific or for fun of it, which seems a bit silly ) and this might be the answer + amazon now for other house supplies.
I looked at the options such as blue apron or hello fresh, but it does not look like a lot of food for the $ you are paying. This looks perfect but it would be pretty neat if we had recipes.
@novica93@_jacksmith@sebastianwerz We actually do add some recipe suggestions for dishes you can create with the ingredients. The best part about the box, though, is that it's flexible. So while you can make some pretty elaborate recipes with the ingredients, you can just as well throw a couple of them together and get a nice meal in 5 - 10 minutes!
@gadgick@jakeapeters I can make that happen! Could you guys send me a line at chai@movebutter.com
That way I have your emails- will reach out the minute we come to the UK!
Hey I like where you are going with this. I have a few feedback points:
1. I'm not getting the singled most or top 3 value props from the landing page. The values props that I can imagine are:
a. Not having to buy groceries
b. Inexpensiveness
c. Quality of food
d. Uniqueness of the food (non-gmo, organic, fair trade etc)
d. Weight loss etc
Perhaps tweak it so on the top of the landing page, right under "An Entire Week of groceries" or "the founders box" say something like: "Get an entire week of (insert adjective here) organic food delivered weekly. Our food is prepared my expert chefs..." Just my guess.
2. When I click on "The Shop" it prompts me to login. I don't think I should have to log in to view the shop. You should do a lazy log in, so users will have to create an account when they go to purchase.
3. "What makes great food so great?" - I think the answer should be more about purity, treatment of the animals, etc.
4. The gyph of the milk going into the box is cool, but I found myself trying to read the other things which is hard to do because you have to wait for the gyph to cycle over again. Perhaps have a still of everything that comes in the box. Also, it would be nice if you showed what the 7 day meal plan would look like. So for each day, show the 3 meals.
5. I would break the 7:45 videos into 2-3 videos.
6. Perhaps write something to address the current solutions out there. How do you get the customer who already has their food delivered from Instacart or something.
7. Being that the price is so affordable - it almost raises some concerns. Maybe tell how you are able to get the price so low and how you chose what when the box.
Hope this helps!
@james_osullivan This is all extremely helpful! Thank you so much for taking the time to write this out! The best part is that we were already wondering how to attack a few of these issues and you've given us the exact right solutions.
Thanks so much!

@chai_mishra@movebutter Loved your passion in the video and all the hard work and research you guys put into it! I would like to see an unboxing or a meal-prep video, because I'm having a hard time visualizing how 21 meals fit all inside the box.
@fahdoo@movebutter so happy to hear that! We're definitely gonna work on an unboxing video first thing this morning! In the meantime, here's the stuff you can expect to find in an average box: https://www.movebutter.com/pages...
We go for 20 staple items. Together, they make for an entire week of food. The categories remain the same but every box has a new variation within the category. For example, you'll always get a bag of fresh cut fruits in the box but we change what those fruits are every week. Keeps it exciting while covering all dietary needs!

@chai_mishra@movebutter Nice, I like that you have variety every week. Do the boxes come with any recipes or its left up to the customer?
@fahdoo@movebutter They do! We add suggestions for dishes you can create with the ingredients. The best part about the box, though, is that it's flexible. So while you can make some pretty elaborate recipes with the ingredients, you can just as well throw a couple of them together and get a nice meal in 5 - 10 minutes!
One thing that frustrates me with these food services is the packaging and how wasteful it is. I tried Plated, and ended up with more waste (plastic, styrofoam cold packs, etc), then had I just purchased the food from the store myself. The food was very good, but I just couldn't justify the waste. How are you different? How are you economically and environmentally conscience?
@mrabramowitz I think that this is a critical concept. There are some key ideas that we've built into the product and business itself that help us accomplish this-
1. Small batch: Everything is made to order. So when our producers make their food, their making it for a specific person. Thats the only way it comes into our facility. By doing so we're able to minimize the food waste significantly. The average grocery store throws out around a 3rd of its food. We throw out nothing.
2. Reuse: More than half the orders we ship come with a return label, for the customer to be able to ship back the empty packaging to us for no cost. Most people exercise that option.
3. Bio-degradable- we're working with a company out on the East Coast, http://www.temperpack.com to develop completely biodegradable insulation. The lining for our boxes will soon be made of lint sourced from washing machines across the country. Making it such that you can put the entire box and insulation in the ground without thinking twice.
These and a lot of other measures are a WIP. But we're always open to more ideas and brainstorms with people who care.
Sounds like you're as passionate about this and we are and I'd love to hear from you!
Feel free to ping me at chai@movebutter.com!
Happy to chat more!
@mrabramowitz My problem as well. And even though I recycled everything, it was still a chore every week to remember so I'd end up with 3 weeks worth of packaging in the garage before I took it to work and threw it in the recycling dumpster.
First off, I love this idea. But I'm a 5'2 girl, so I need about half of what you're offering. Are you planning on doing different variations of boxes to where we can do a "Founder's Box Lite"?
@elisegraham Hi Elise! It's in the works! I
If you send me a note, I can ping you as soon as we have something! We're also always looking for beta testers for new products :)
I'm at chai@movebutter.com
Excited to hear from you!
@elisegraham Hey Elise!
I'm running marketing here at Movebutter, and I'm 5'3, so I feel you on that. We're working on creating a version for people like you and me who just don't need to east as much. I'll definitely keep this in my list of priorities to work on.
Hey PH community! I'm Sebastian, one of the founders of Movebutter. I'm really excited to tell y'all more about The Founder Box and our story!
We're giving the ProductHunt community an awesome 15% discount on the box -- just use the code "PRODUCTHUNT15" during checkout!
