Thanks for the update on Amazon Tzoavva.
Actually it was like pulling teeth to get a straight answer about the difference in foods. I called Bistro
three times and asked this question of three different people. One higher up individual said that the food was the same, and that they were just giving Biggest Loser people a discount due to their agreement with the network. That I might get a packet meal here and there, but no real difference otherwise.
That was strange to me, because it went against everything I read out here before in other Bistro threads where the Bistro old timers said they had a 6 week rotation, with more variety than the Biggest Loser. This is when I was trying to decide if it was worth switching to Bistro for better variety. I finally called and got a rep who said she's been with them forever, and that there is indeed a difference between the plans (I thought so). She even went into detail, and she turned out to be right. I began noticing meals I had not received in the previous weeks at all (and I got about 5 packet meals that first time on Bistro). She said Biggest Loser people do not get the steak, and she was right on that. I also finally got to try the Cherry and Apple stuffed chicken, which I was told I could not have on Biggest Loser. They even looked that up for me, because I really wanted to try it and I was on Biggest Loser at the time (I have yet to see or taste even one cherry in that meal). It's OK and everything, but it basically just tastes like apples and chicken. They said I would need to be on Bistro to get that meal.
There were others that I saw coming through eventually that I had not seen in my previous weeks on Biggest Loser. It does not happen all at once. It's not like your first week on Bistro, everything is different or anything. You get an infusion a little at a time until you begin to see the newer pattern. I can't think of all the names, but my guess is that you get maybe 7 or 8 new foods and that does not include any of the Bistro breakfasts because I don't get the breakfasts to gauge that. This other person who ended up being right about the other stuff, said there is more variety and more of a rotation. I bet their lives will be simpler now without the Biggest Loser on board because that would confuse the heck out of me working there! I know that it confused me as a customer. Everyone had a different answer when I called! One thing to consider is that now everything could be totally different anyway. It's a new ball game without the Biggest Loser plan, so they may have a whole new system for all we know as far as rotation goes.
I love the food, however I have noticed that I am starting to get almost the same meals every week here the past two weeks. I don't know if maybe I gave them less to work with when I filled out my profile or what (probably). I will never eat the Greek Inspired lentil stuff again (not for me). I also said no Meatloaf's, Chili's or Philly Cheese Steak, but they have plenty of other meals, so it shouldn't be that much of a problem. I haven't seen that Santa Barbara Chicken for a while. I was told you would not lose any meals by switching, but that you would only
gain more variety. I also notice that they pay attention to my favorites from my profile, because they give me those nearly every week.
Oh and I said no Mahi Mahi, but I have also not seen Tilapia for a while either. My last two weeks have been almost identical. It's all good food, but that will get tiresome after a while. Maybe I just got stuck in a rotation where it just so happens that the last two weeks had more of the ones I don't like (hoping that's all it is).
I know that Bistro users get hot chocolate, but I have my own anyway. I get 7 lunches and 7 dinners because I am ala carte Bistro. I do not get their breakfasts or snacks. Because I pay per meal, I make sure that I get 7 lunches and 7 dinners (I don't want a my night).
P.S. I had so much dry ice in this last one, my eyes nearly popped out. The box weighed nearly 50 pounds! The good news is that everything was frozen solid again! Yay
Oh and I got no packet meals this time either. They did say they are phasing those out (and I won't miss them at all). Much more convenient in trays.
Now that I look more closely at the menu you put out, I see why I got so many of the same foods again. Many of the ones I don't care for were in this weeks. Oh well. I seem to never get enough of the Chicken Fresco or the Blue Cheese Stuffed Chicken! I was getting a California Inspired Wrap, and a Philly Cheese Steak every single week (that was making me nuts)! No more thank God!
I put a note in my profile about it.
