Well it's week 2 and Banana Bob delivered my second box of fruit and veggies today while I was at Uni.
Last week I asked him to deliver a £20 non organic box. I'd no idea what it would be like and wondered if the quantity would be better than the previous fruit and veg box store.
When it arrived I was extremely surprised. Both quantity and especially quality was amazing! Everything was far better than the usual supermarket products I choose too. I compared the itemised prices with those at the 'well known' (!) supermarket I use. The result was that these top quality products were on average 25% cheaper than my supermarket. A saving not to be sniffed at for a family on a fixed budget, especially when factoring in the added quality too.
Three family bowls of fruit salad later and we still hadn't managed to use all the fruit! The veggies were were delicious too and I was ready to ring Banana Bob for a repeat order of the non organic box each week. But I decided to wait for this weeks organic box to arrive first.
Yet again there was a box full of great quality organic fruit and veg. I was amazed at the difference in quantity when comparing with the first fruit and veg store of two weeks ago. I haven't had time to cook or eat any of them yet, but by the look of things I won't be disappointed.
There's no doubt about it I'll be sticking with Banana Bob. My only decision now is organic or non organic?

Well organic won't have pesticide residues, and it's better for wildlife.
So if the smaller quantity you get for £20 of organic is still enough to feed you and littleboo for the week, go for that.
You can always review your decision... you're not contracted in, are you?

You're right John. But I'm not sure there is enough. After all I feed all of the PAs aswell , so that's like another full time adult at every meal.I'll have to think about it.
