Requested move (2017) edit

Hi! I am requesting for this article to be merged with meal kit, as most of the content overlaps. Which name do you think should be used for the merged article? Thanks for the input, Daylen (talk) 18:28, 14 August 2017 (UTC) This discussion will stay open until August 31, unless consensus is reached before then.Reply

Thanks for the ping. I'm the one who split the meal kit info out as its own article, because meal kits are different than meal delivery services. The meal kits are raw ingredients that must be cooked together to make a meal. It's a growing billion dollar category, and there are reportedly 150 such companies in this space. The meal delivery services, as I tried to convey with what was left behind, are precooked meals that usually just have to be heated up. It tends to be targeted to weight loss efforts, and well known brands are Weight Watchers and Jenny Craig. There's also the entire food delivery category, which is like Dominos pizza or takeout Chinese, that are ready to eat as soon as you get them. You also have Online food ordering services, like GrubHub and Door Dash. I think you'll have a hard time squeezing all these into one article, but if anything, I could see that last article being a possible spot where you might include sections for meal kits and meal delivery service, but still link to their main articles.
