I continue to find the service a mixed bag. I'm unable to modify any orders, add anything, remove anything, or have my preferences realized. There's also no possibility of having a combination of meat and vegan meals in the same order. And generally find that, while there's variety and different flavors in my meals, I generally don't enjoy them particularly, and they are only a means to an end. I am constantly on the brink of canceling it.

Loving Thistle!
The food is great, the delivery is great. I am eating healthy, and I am losing weight. There have been some snacks and breakfasts that I didn't like, but i just didn't order them again. The ordering process is very easy for me. My favorite is the salads and dinners. I also like trying new foods.

Delicious and healthy food for every meal. I love the smoothies and desserts. The drinks are also great. A wide of choices for my daughter and I , she eats meat and I am vegetarian. I would prefer softer beans in the vegetarian dishes and shitake mushrooms instead of the ones they currently use. We have been subscribers for several months.

Hi Brittany,
We're thrilled to hear that you are enjoying Thistle so far :) Thistle's goal is to make plant-forward eating easy, accessible and delicious. It warms our hearts to hear that this has been the case for you. Thank you again for such an awesome review!
Food is good and healthy
Food is good and healthy. Deliveries are always on time. I really like the flexibility - I can customize my weekly delivery based on my needs. Although more expensive than cooking my own food, for a single person it is so convenient (and a time saver). The one thing that could be improved on is increased variety - I love spinach but different colored vegetables in the mix would be nice. I love Thistle!

A Wonderful Healthy Eating Solution!
I've been really impressed with the meal offerings, ease of ordering, and timely delivery. The food has been very tasty and it is such a convenient way to eat healthy! Compared to what I would normally pay for breakfast and lunch, it is a bargain!

Fabulous vegan meal delivery service!
I've been doing Thistle for over a year, and my entire family has been so happy with every dish. Everything is so fresh, delicious, and creatively different from mainstream vegan dishes. Also, what's really impressive is that every dish has a high fiber and iron content; Thistle helps me get the daily nutrients that I need.

Good if you’re looking for convenience…
Thistle is fantastic if you want to have convenient, vegan options. My only real issue is that I find the breakfasts and most snacks to be kinda “meh,” but the dinners and salads are yummy! Can’t get it ALL the time because it’s kinda pricey, and I hate the packaging waste involved, but great when I’m busy and want healthy options.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback with us, Kelly. We are so happy knowing Thistle's services have been helpful during the busy work week though, we’re saddened to hear some of our snacks and breakfasts did not align with your taste preferences. I am happy to pass this feedback along to the appropriate teams for careful review and consideration.
As part of our commitment to sustainability and reducing our environmental footprint, we’ve made switching to more sustainable packaging a major goal for our company. We want to ensure that these containers would meet our strict Quality Assurance (QA) standards prior to incorporating them into regular deliveries, and make sure there's a high return rate.
We are pursuing parallel paths — (1) shorter term, making our current containers more sustainable by ensuring they are comprised of 100% recycled material/no virgin plastic; we’ve been working with a few vendors and actually just sent out 100% PCR containers to customers as part of a larger scale test recently; and (2) we’re continuing to work with our partner Dispatch Goods on reusable containers: we are expecting to receive their new reusable containers very soon for internal testing, and are excited to see how these perform and scale testing pending those results.
In the meantime, please feel free to follow the link below to read more about Thistle’s commitment to making sustainable packaging a reality! Thanks again for your feedback and stay tuned for updates as we move towards more environmentally-friendly packaging!

Team Thistle Rocks👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Most importantly - healthy delicious food delivered to your home. Team Thistle provides adequate food selections each week while making sure your favorites are repeated periodically. The website is easy to navigate and customer support is extremely responsive.
There have been a few glitches with the delivery though: wrong or no deliveries. Plus, there’s no rewards program for members. With such a clever and talented team this should be an easy task.
Bottom line - Thistle is a great option for those of us who have busy lives but want nutritious delicious meals.
