The thing I hate most about Blue Apron is the fact that their recipes are written like a novel. No one needs paragraphs of text to cook a chicken. Recipes have always been step-by-step numbered. Instead, Blue Apron crams 20 different steps into 3 sentences and calls it “Step 1.” When you’re moving back and forth between the stove, fridge, and where you have the recipe, it’s impossible to figure out where you left off without re-reading.
