Meals are available through limited-time 'meal drops' (monthly releases) rather than ongoing availability. The core product offering consists of individual restaurant-partner meals (such as KINDRED's 30-Hour White Bean Chili, Jame | Ospi's Lasagna, Woon's Stir Fry Chewy Noodles, Knead & Co.'s Green Goddess Mac & Cheese, and All Day Baby's Cookies) plus a reusable container return program. No subscription is required; customers order during weekly meal windows. The service covers Los Angeles, Orange County, and San Diego counties.
