Coresight Research estimates that the US market for meal kits and recipe boxes surged in 2020, fueled by a combination of limited dining-out options due to pandemic-led lockdowns, families having little time to spare for cooking food, and consumers’ desire to eat an easy-to-make, well-balanced meal instead of takeout.
