What would a service need to do differently for you to consider it?optional

Concept

FEEDS. Meals, taken care of.

Imagine a service that takes some of the planning and preparation out of feeding your household. Prepared food sized for the people you’re feeding, with convenient delivery or pickup.

We’re deciding where to start. Possibilities include family dinners, ready-to-eat breakfasts, packed children’s lunches or adult lunches.

These are ideas to test, not a promise to launch every option.

Which ONE would your household actually try first?

Family dinnersReady-to-eat breakfastsPacked children’s lunchesAdult lunchesNone — I wouldn’t try theseOther

Subscription

: one less thing to remember.

A regular quantity could be reserved automatically each week, with choices to change quantities, skip or pause before a weekly cutoff.

A subscription would continue—and be charged—unless changed. Pricing isn’t set; answering doesn’t start a subscription.

Which ordering approach would you prefer?

A flexible weekly subscription that automatically reserves my mealsOrdering only when I need mealsI’d like the option of eitherI’m unlikely to use the service

What would make you comfortable subscribing?

Adult portions each day you use itChild portions each day you use it

Include only people using this offering. You can enter zero adults for school lunches, or zero children for work lunches. Older children may need adult portions.

Your weekly ceiling

For this question, imagine 5 days of per week, with 0 adult and 0 child portions each day. That’s 0 portions in total each week.

This is a comparison scenario, even if you’d prefer a different frequency.

At what TOTAL weekly price would this start to feel too expensive to consider? (USD/week)Not sure

Enter $0 if you wouldn’t pay for it. Your answer is feedback, not a quote or commitment.

A quick thought on packaging

We’re exploring packaging options, including reusable containers. No decision has been made; this is feedback, not a promise.

How important would reusable containers be when deciding whether to use FEEDS?optional

Very importantSomewhat importantNot very importantNot important at allNot sure

If meals came in reusable containers, how would you feel about returning them at a later delivery or pickup?optional
