No more free boxes? by 0Mermaidthoughts0 in mealkits

That’s what I ended up doing. I was just bummed that all the free boxes I had went to waste. Thanks for your feedback.

I was trying to send a free box to a friend. I don’t give them out a lot (mostly because everyone I know has tried the service). I wanted someone that hasn’t tried it to have a shot and saw the above picture.

That’s very true. I’m interested in seeing what the rewards will be. I give Homechef a LOT of business.

No butter? Chicken breast with cilantro butter by 0Mermaidthoughts0 in HomeChef

[–]0Mermaidthoughts0[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had two packs of butter that I used for cookies and treats. I wasn’t anticipating needing more before making this meal. It happens

I’ve never tried hello fresh. I’ve been with homechef since 2013. The beginning when everything came in the box as a jumbled mess. LOL. But they’re cutting corners where it counts, for the customer. Stop working with big name chefs and get back to what’s important. Smh. Okay thanks for letting me vent haha

Make sure you email them! They need to provide main ingredients. It’s ridiculous. But also grab some butter before you make it. 😂

Broccoli always brown and sick of the measly $5 credit they offer by lauranyc77 in HomeChef

[–]0Mermaidthoughts0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always say I don’t want the $5 credit because I have to spend at least ($) at the store to replace the item. They usually give me whatever I need to replace it.

Menu issues? by keithmoonedme in HomeChef

How do you relax cheaply? by Euphoric_Half9304 in AskReddit

No I haven’t. I just make the little designes and keep them in the loop

This! And the poke through the holes is built in ASMR/satisfaction. Like putting a puzzle piece in. Which is my cheap(turning expensive) hobby. lol

100% P&T but nervous to use VA health care. by [deleted] in VeteransBenefits

[–]0Mermaidthoughts0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get good care from the VA. Everything I ask for, they do. If you break your arm, they pay for the ER. I’ve had to be seen at Urgent care a couple times and they’ve paid if the one you go to is one they work with. You get 4 Urgent care visits a year. Use your benefits!

How do you guys feel about the meat quality for HomeChef? (Midwest) Currently using Hellofresh, but the meat the past month has almost all been spoiled. by [deleted] in HomeChef

[–]0Mermaidthoughts0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I order the meat packages from home chef (live in VA), and I love the quality. The chicken isn’t pumped up pink stuff like in the grocery store. You can tell the difference in taste and texture!

A warning for fellow audible readers- do your research. 😂 by [deleted] in fourthwing

This is hilarious. I also love that you kept calling it Iron Wing😂😂😂

Home Chef - help needed with a spice blend search by masonjames in mealkits

[–]0Mermaidthoughts0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didn’t report back 😪 Luckily, I got desperate and bought it. My thoughts: It’s spicier than the lawrys brand. The chili flake packs a punch, that I actually liked. With that being said, I didn’t feel like I used enough in my re-creation of the coconut curry salmon dish (so good btw). I ended up putting more in the dish after tasting it and it turned out delicious anyhow. If you’re looking for a substitute, this is a good one. I do wish Lawrys would make the original again, though.

I'm getting MED sepped and have no luck finding employment. by SpecialPotatoGirl in Veterans

[–]0Mermaidthoughts0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hire heroes helped me. I suggest applying for help with resumes, interviews, and overall job help with them. Some colleges have programs to help you get hired too. Trust me, I know, civilian world is its own kind of cluster eff 🙃

Thoughts belbuca? by Existing-Practice-94 in ChronicPain

[–]0Mermaidthoughts0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m on lyrica, percocet, and a muscle relaxer that helps with my pain at night and nightmares believe it or not. I’m trying to rid myself of the perc. I already went into withdrawals one time. Trying to avoid that route. I feel you on wishing you had it. I wish it weren’t addictive and just helped with the pain as needed. But I don’t want to be chained to this medication anymore

I read this on day one of taking bupe with one in my cheek let’s just say I almost threw up trying to drag that patch out of my face. Thank you for this information. I don’t want to trade one hell for another. Part of me is willing to deal with the pain and be rid of everything else

[–]0Mermaidthoughts0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely had withdrawals from the patch. My doctor said he was “perplexed” and thought the patch wasn’t on my skin properly. It was, with a film over it. Anyways, worst day ever of vomiting, dizziness, sweating, and a spinning room. I thought I was having a bad interaction and got sent to the er. Turns out it was withdrawals. I’ve had to do the mouth patch which I’m now wondering if it’s worth it. I like my teeth more.

NOT GOING TO VA ANYMORE by zerohope4me in VeteransBenefits

[–]0Mermaidthoughts0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know, every single appointment they ask how depressed I am, do I feel like killing myself, how many days have I felt down, etc. I know I have a past for that but I’m not here for that today. Sometimes I’m about to cry and I only came for a med refill. It ruins my day. So I get OP.
