Today I came home to an email from ChefButler, explaining that their subscription box program will be ending (their last box will go out in July). I feel a strange sort of guilt that I haven't taken the time lately to show off all the amazing meals I've made thanks to their boxes, but as neither their main website or their Facebook page give any other explanation, I can make no other assumption other than that yes, they are shutting down because I didn't post enough pictures. (If I learn anything more in the next few days, I'll update.)
Now, I enjoyed this subscription a lot. It was fun, the customer service was great, and they really loved food. Regardless, I would have probably stuck with them even if they were mediocre, because as far as I know, there is no other similar program in Canada at this time. I hope that a few other companies will start up to fill the void - the various food subscriptions in the US seem to be doing well.
Thanks for the good times, ChefButler. We'll miss you!
