PRODUCT What’s your cooking philosophy? Flavor, Color, Bonheur. Bonheur means happiness in French, our founder’s mother tongue. We believe good mood starts with better food. Eating your vegetables shouldn’t feel like punishment. It should be exciting. Creative. Delicious. VITAMIN COLOR meal delivery service is based on a whole-food, plant rich diet. Everything is cooked from scratch using fresh, nutrient dense & high quality ingredients. Bold in flavors, rich in colors & diverse in options. Our mission is to empower you to live your best life by making it easy for you to eat food you believe in regardless of how much time you have. How often do you change the menu? Convenience doesn’t mean you have to be bored eating the same thing day after day. Our menu changes weekly & rotates seasonally to use only the freshest & highest quality produce. How many people does it feed? The box is meant to be veryyy flexible and is designed for the unpredictability of real life. Small hunger, big hunger, friends showing up last minute, lunch to bring to the office, cosy dinner - you decide what’s in the box. For 1 person, it covers 5 to 7 meals. For 2 people, it covers 4 to 6 meals. For 3 people, it covers 2 to 3 meals. Some dishes have a sweetness to it, do you cook with sugar? Nope, never. The sweetness that you may taste comes either from fruits or cooking techniques that bring out the natural sweetness in food - roasting vegetables at a high temperature, slowly caramelising onions at a low temperature to name a few. How long does it keep in the fridge? To ensure optimal freshness, we recommend storing meals in a refrigerator as soon after delivery as possible. All meals will stay fresh for up to three days after delivery with proper refrigeration. I’m not vegetarian, can I still order the box? Of course! Many of our customers are non vegetarians! The box is a great way to bring new flavours to your table & incorporate more vegetables in your diet without doing any of the work. Cooking vegetables is what usually take the most time in the kitchen & where often creativity lacks the most. We’re here to solve this for you. You can easily use the box as a basis for your meals & expand on it by adding the meat or fish of your choice for certain meals. Is there any cooking involved? Not if you don’t want it. All dishes are ready to be consumed & enjoyed as is - some can be reheated if desired. We do, however, share every week a list of suggestions to help you expand on the box if you want to. Instead of spending hours scrolling, deciding, shopping, cooking & cleaning, you can just use VITAMIN COLOR dishes to create in minutes your next meal. SUSTAINABILITY What is your packaging made of? Our packaging is made with 100% recycled plastic, is 100% recyclable & is the packaging with the lowest carbon footprint we could find that fits VITAMIN COLOR needs. Finding the perfect packaging has been by far the biggest challenge since starting VITAMIN COLOR. We were looking for something convenient, eco-friendly, bike delivery friendly, that keeps VITAMIN COLOR meals safe & fresh in transit, that can stay in the fridge for a few days & that you can close & open back up if you’re not eating everything in one seating. Our packaging meets the requirements of: - EU Regulation 1935/2004/EC (Framework regulation) - EU Regulation 2023/2006/EC (GMP) - EU Regulation 10/2011/EC with amendments (Plastic regulation) - EU Regulation 282/2008 (Recycled plastic) How do you deliver? We deliver everything by electric assist cargo bike as we care about our cities, our community & our planet. We want to shape a world where bikes will supplant cars. Why this urge you may ask? Bikes make for a greener, cleaner, healthier, quieter, safer & more efficient mode of urban transport than cars. - Bikes have a smaller manufacturing footprint when compared to cars - Bikes produce no pollution when in operation - Bikes reduce congestion in cities & its associated costs - Bikes free up taxpayer money by reducing road wear - money that can then be used to invest in our future (education, culture, health care, etc) rather than in restoring our past Why pre-order only? Pre-ordering allows us to plan ahead, order what we need & reduce food waste before it’s produced. In the EU only, around 88 millions tonnes of food waste are generated annually with associated costs estimated at 143 billion euros. Wasting food is not only an ethical and economic issue but it also depletes the environment of limited natural resources. Food waste alone generates 8-10% of global greenhouse gas emissions (UNEP Food Waste Index 2021). By pre-ordering you become part of the solution. Together we can build a better world.
