If you have any allergies, make sure you read the ingredients of each dish. You’ll find them on our website under On The Menu. Simply click through any meal to view all nutritional and ingredients information. While many of our meals may not contain specific allergens, all our production is done in a facility where cross contamination may occur so we cannot guarantee that our products are completely allergen free.
Many are organic, and the great majority are local and sustainable. Our food has no artificial ingredients, binders, fillers or artificial preservatives added. All ingredients are Non-GMO and as seasonal as possible.
Supporting other small businesses is a core value of RealEats so we try to source as much as we can to the small independent farmers and food companies, many of which are local to our kitchen in the Finger Lakes agricultural region of New York.
We are adding more plant-based, dairy-free, and gluten-free options for our RealEaters! Please take a close look at each meal to see if it fits your dietary needs and select what works for you. Our meals are made with high quality real ingredients, but we are not a diet plan. If you have health concerns, please consult a health professional before making your selections. Details for all meals can be found on the On The Menu page.

RealEats is a weekly meal subscription that provides you with healthy, fresh meals you can prepare in 6 minutes (or less). Each week, we deliver an insulated box to your door that contains meals sealed inside BPA-free, plasticizer and phthalate-free plastic pouches – made from the same quality food-safe pouches used by high-end gourmet restaurants for “sous-vide” style cooking. Simply bring a large pot of water to a gentle simmer, place pouches in the water and heat based on the time indicated on each menu item (generally 6 minutes for proteins and 3 minutes for sides, cold items are ready to eat right out of the bag). You can also microwave your meals by removing them from the pouches first.
Our kitchen is based in Geneva, NY – right in the heart of the Finger Lakes agricultural region.
