My very limited experience with Blue Apron was that it was easy enough to cancel. But pretty much all the meal services, as far as I can tell,work on the subscribe and then you have to cancel model. Which makes them pretty uninteresting to me.
I might give a service a try for a week here and there but I definitely don't want one week in and week out. And I don't want to deal with signing up and then (hopefully if all goes well) immediately canceling. Dark pattern.
For a very very long time (I don't know what it's like these days) Blue Apron's cancellation has been available online, but not linked anywhere on the site. Contacting support would either have them cancelling the subscription for you, or just sending you the link.
It was an extremely dark pattern intended to combat churn, which was a huge problem. Practically nobody working there liked it, but the orders to do things this way came from execs.
