My fridge is a time capsule of my cooking phases

I was looking at the mess in there today and it hit me how much it shows what I've been into. For years I thought meal kits were just a dumb, expensive trend for people who couldn't plan. Then my sister gave me a free HelloFresh box last fall and I had to eat my words. The first one was a honey sriracha chicken thing, and having all the exact amounts right there, no waste, it just clicked. I don't get them every week now, but you can still spot a leftover sauce packet or a little bag of spice blend tucked behind the ketchup. It got me out of my same five dinner rut for good. Anyone else have a fridge that tells the story of a cooking habit you swore you'd never pick up?

I thought they were a waste of money too until I tried one.

My buddy said the same thing about his fancy blender last year. Now he makes smoothies every morning like it's his religion. Guess some things you just gotta try for yourself lol.

My smoothie "religion" lasted about three days, max.
