“Meal prep is boring.” “Prepped food loses nutrients.” “It’s too much work.” These are common myths. In this post, we’ll debunk them and show what really works — including how Foodicted handles prep for you.
Sections
- Myth 1: Meal Prep Means Reheated, Tasteless Food
- Reality: with proper spices, sauces, and proper storage, flavors hold up
- Foodicted’s method: vacuum / insulated containers, best reheating tips
- Myth 2: You Can’t Preserve Nutrients
- Reality: some vitamins degrade, but losses are minimal if cooking & storing well
- Best practices: blanching, flash cooling, minimal overcooking
- Myth 3: It Takes Too Much Time
- Reality: 1–2 hours once per week can cover 5 meals
- Foodicted’s advantage: you don’t need to do it — we deliver
- Myth 4: Everything Tastes the Same After a Few Days
- Reality: variation via sauces, dressings, rotating proteins/vegetables
- Tip: prep some “mix-ins” (fresh herbs, nuts, dressings) just before serving
- Myth 5: It’s Expensive
- Reality: buying in bulk + lower waste = cost savings
- Compare cost per meal at home prep vs ordering from restaurants
- What Actually Works: Smart Prep Strategies
- Batch cooking vs daily cooking
- Partial prep (just chop veggies, marinate proteins)
- Use proper storage containers (air-tight, vacuum, freezer-safe)
- Labeling, rotation of foods
