Welcome

Hey, I’m David! I’m a keen home cook based in Sydney.

I created Food Box Mate to share my own experiences of different meal kits, snack boxes and prepared meals. I still feel like a kid at christmas each time a delivery arrives, which makes me super passionate about sharing that feeling with you.
