Packaging, Delivery and Service

Diet-to-Go delivers a weeks worth of meals to your doorstep via UPS. The food comes frozen with dry ice in an polystyrene  box.

My order of a weeks worth of food arrived when they promised and was still frozen and well packaged. The food was frozen and packed by meal. The non-perishable snacks and breakfast items were in a separate plastic container located in a separate cardboard box. There was no printed material with the food, so customers are expected to go on-line for menu information.

All food was in perfect condition and the meals were labeled with heating instructions only. Again, customers are expected to go to the Diet 2 Go website to see the nutritional and ingredient information of each meal.

Most food was packaged in vacuum sealed plastic trays. The trays can be recycled, but the polystyrene box has to be discarded or reused by the customer.

Sample Menu

Preparation Required

Diet-to-Go has instructions for two methods of reheating the meals which are the microwave and a conventional oven. In the microwave, meals are ready in under 9 minutes from frozen and in the oven they are ready in about 30 minutes.

Best Dishes

The best meals I sampled were the Blackened Turkey Loin and the Egg & Broccoli Pie. They were well seasoned and filling.

Worst Dishes

The only meal that I would not want to eat again was The Herb Baked Atlantic Salmon. The Salmon had an overly fishy taste and was extremely dry. A lemon wedge was listed as one of the sides, but wasn’t present in the meal.

Diet to Go Overview

Overall, Diet-2-Go is a good option for those that have trouble controlling portion size and choosing healthy meal options. It is also one of the more affordable diet delivery services available, without compromising too much on quality and service. Diet-to-go is commended for including fresh fruit, juices, and yogurt as part of their menu which ensures dieters get the recommended daily allowances of vitamins while using their service.

Diet-to-Go offers the customer many options that seem to fit any lifestyle, as well as the option to pick up fresh non-frozen meals which would improve the overall quality of their meals.

However, I think the service could be improved by providing a printed menu and clearly displaying the nutritional and ingredient  information on each meal’s label.
