Is there a place to buy frozen foods online?

Geocitiesuser

The majority of my diet is 100%food meal replacement shakes, various protein snacks, and a handful of different frozen goods (bags of frozen veggies in steamer bags, amy's and evol meals, tyson precooked chicken).

Is there a place online I can just order the frozen foods for delivery? I do all of my other shopping online, and if I could buy these things online, I'd buy them in bulk and try to save a few bucks.

It looks like amazon has some "direct shippers" but I'm not familiar with them, how much the delivery cost would be, or if anyone has a good or bad opinion on the topic as a whole.

I know there are places like swansons but I'm a control freak about my food.

Depending on where you live, there are number of online grocery delivery companies available. I use one for all my grocery shopping. If it's just frozen foods, Google is your friend for finding where to order frozen foods.

What do you mean you are a control freak about your food?

Amazon fresh

Unfortunately amazon fresh, peapod, nor safeway are in my area. I'm looking to buy frozen foods only though. Is this not a possibility unless you are in the metro?

Again, there are direct food shippers on amazon I'm curious about if anyone can chime in with any experiences. Links to google, not as helpful.

One of the direct shippers, foodservicedirect for example, their prices are far above what I pay at my local supermarket even before shipping is added in.

It could be that the service I'm hoping for just does not exist.

"What do you mean you are a control freak about your food?"

I do not want schwann's or other similar service. I'm looking to buy frozen groceries. Not so much premade meals.

Most supermarkets have home delivery now ,dont they?

You can order online and have it delivered.

You might get better advice if you say where you are from... which country would be a good start and if you name a state you may get some good local knowledge. I mean, I could tell you what would be good in my area, but if you aren't living in my part of Australia, that's not going to be very helpful.

Even if you can't find a grocery store that delivers to your house, you are likely to find one that will gather your grocery list together to be picked up. These services do cost. Where my mother lives (Hingham, MA) the general rule of thumb is $10 to have your groceries picked off the shelves and delivered, about $7 to just have it picked off the shelves and ready for you to pick up.

Unfortunately the shipping of frozen goods will be quite expensive. They will have to be over-nighted and packed with ice packs with leak proof packaging. Unless someone is home at the time of delivery drop-off can even be a problem.

A small sized freezer might be an option for you. I have seen some chest types that are sized for apts. That way you could stock it with enough frozen vegetables to last you quite a while. At least you would only have to go to the store maybe every 3-4 months???

I have thought about doing this myself for not just veggies but also my meats. I don't use a lot of frozen vegetables but I like to keep them in the freezer for emergencies.
