This morning my first Misfits box arrived. I asked the Fed Ex guy if he delivers a lot of that and he said YES! There are several companies that have veggies, as well as some that send out entire meal kits and he said they seem to be very popular.
I had to laugh at myself. I don’t think it’s normal to get so excited over a box of groceries.
I was happy with what I got. Was it cheaper than grocery store prices? No. But, it’s all supposed to be organic and I don’t usually buy organic.
I’m going to start rough on the left and go across:
- 5 medium red potatoes
- 2 large bundles of kale
- 6 pears
- 4 baking potatoes
- 2 zucchini
- 5 parsnips
- 3 green apples (probably Granny Smith)
- broccoli
- 4 Yukon Gold potatoes
- 2 purple onions
- 2 grapefruit
Towards the back:
- Spaghetti Squash
- Snow Peas
- Eggplant
- Cauliflower
Everything looked great . . nothing wrong with any of it.
So far, I ate a pear, and used one zucchini, two parsnips and cauliflower or lunch.
I cooked a meatloaf out of the freezer and baked it. The cauliflower was cooked using the sous vide, then roasted under the broiler with cheese.
This was parsnips, carrots, zucchini and onion. Delicious. Almost like I picked it all out of my own garden.
That was a yummy meal . . if I do say so myself! I’m so happy I love to cook and don’t mind cooking just for myself.

Looks good; how much was it?
Susan Nixon says
It does look delicious! Do you have any choices you can make? I don’t like pears, for instance. The texture is not nice, in my opinion. But most things look delicious.
Judy Laquidara says
Yes, there are “categories”. As I recall, I picked 6 things from one category, 6 from another and 2 from the third. Also, I signed up just one day before the cut off so a lot of the things were already sold out but there was enough that I wanted that I was fine. I can pick what I want again on March 7, which is a Sunday (I think), for my delivery the following Saturday. This week, I picked on Tuesday night late for Saturday delivery.

I ordered from them once. Never saw the box…never got any response from MISFITS as to why they took my $$ and never sent the produce. Needless to say, I unsubscribed immediately.
Judy Laquidara says
They were very responsive. They confirmed the order, sent me a note that it was being packed, then that it was being shipped, then that it was out for delivery and a final note that it had been delivered.
Susan says
I liked the information you shared in this post. I have been curious about Misfits and how it worked. Did you get the small $22 box?
Judy Laquidara says
Next size up.
Christina Coats says
Hi All. Had to laugh ‘a misfits box! Here in the UK
Our very similar box of vegetables is called a ‘Wonky box.
Judy Laquidara says
That’s funny. I like that name better.
Carolyn says
Both of my daughters get Misfits boxes. My older one gets meat and several other things from them. They both love the boxes and are doing a lot more cooking because of them. They said everything they’ve gotten from them has been high quality and delicious!
