Chop Fresh. Chop Fast. Chop Flavor.

Packaging Waste

Boxes arrive full of plastic, ice packs, and unnecessary trash.

Delivery Delays

Missed delivery slots that throw off weekly meal planning

Costly recurring fees and delivery charges pay once, enjoy forever.

Overpriced Subscriptions

Pre-chopped veggies lose freshness quickly, arriving soggy or spoiled.

Pre-Cut Ingredients

Meal kits promise convenience, but do they really deliver on taste, nutrition, and sustainability? We put you in control — fresh ingredients, faster prep, and easy kitchen wins you can enjoy every week, your way.

Quality & Nutrition

VanChop!

Freshly chopped vegetables retain superior taste and texture.

Nutrient retention is high—since vitamins like C begin degrading immediately after cutting, home chopping keeps freshness intact.

Meal Kits:

Though convenient, many kits contain limited vegetables and higher levels of saturated fat and sodium

A UK study found over half of kit meals were “high in fat” and two-thirds “high in salt”
