The meals are prepared using ethically sourced ingredients from local Australian farmers, including free-range chicken and pork, grass-fed beef and lamb, and sustainably fished seafood. The meals are made fresh to order in a 100% carbon-neutral kitchen, cooled, stored in fridges and then transferred into HaloPack eco packs. Halo Packs are BPA-free, made from recycled cardboard, reducing Dineamic’s use of plastic by 92%! This is a big tick for sustainability and is one of the better packaging solutions I have seen in readymade meals. Each meal is then vacuumed and sealed to maintain its freshness. Some other readymade meals such as My Muscle Chef use this method to preserve freshness.
Dineamic offers up to 60 meals to choose from each week – a huge variety! This is similar to what is offered by the readymade meal service youfoodz. Dineamic caters to a range of dietary preferences and lifestyles including low FODMAP, low calorie, no added dairy, high protein, low carb, low gluten, vegan and vegetarian. Whilst Dineamic does cater to a wide variety of diets, they do not offer gluten-free meals. In comparison, the readymade meal service We Feed You offers 100% certified gluten-free meals. It would be great to see Dineamic offer future gluten-free options.
The prices of Dineamic readymade meals range from $11.00 – $13.00 for one serve and $13.00 – $15.00 for their mains for two. These prices are cheaper than We Feed You, yet more expensive than My Muscle Chef or youfoodz. Dineamic also offers a range of soups starting from $8.00 (one serve) and snacks and drinks, starting from $3.50. There are options to suit everyone’s cravings!
Like Herbidoor and We Feed You, Dineamic is also registered with the National Disability and Insurance Scheme (NDIS) and works with Home Care Package providers, ensuring accessibility for everyone. There are no lock-in subscriptions with Dineamic and you can create your own meal plan or have a meal plan designed for you by one of their dieticians. This is an excellent offering for those who have specific health goals in mind!
