FOOD ALLERGIES
We always make sure to identify all ingredients in every meal and list common allergens. All of our meals are 100% gluten-, peanut- and soy-free. Our production staff is well-trained to recognize and respect the severity of food allergies. Extreme precautions and sanitation practices are taken, under strict inspection and testing by the USDA.

MEALS
The Good Kitchen meals are prepared in our kitchen daily with well-sourced proteins and produce. We work with a network of trusted purveyors to bring high-quality, well-balanced meals to your table. Our meals are prepared with grass-fed, grass-finished, pastured beef and pork. All chicken is antibiotic-free and hormone-free and we use only good fats. All meals are cryo-vacuumed in reusable, recyclable, BPA-free trays that are microwave safe. Our meals are frozen immediately following portioning. Each meal is shipped frozen and can be stored in the freezer for up to six months for optimal freshness. Your weekly delivery can be frozen upon delivery or stored in the refrigerator and consumed within 10 days. Please refer to the individual meal for specific reheating instructions. Frozen, thawed and cooked veg dishes may contain water as a byproduct. Once the food is thawed, it is safe to refreeze without cooking, although there may be a loss of quality due to moisture lost through thawing.

Any new features, changes, updates or improvements of the Program shall be subject to this Agreement unless explicitly stated otherwise in writing. We reserve the right to change this Agreement from time to time. Any updates to this Agreement shall be communicated to you. You acknowledge your responsibility to review this Agreement from time to time and to be aware of any such changes.
