Where shall we dine tonight?
Catering has been around for some time now in one form or another. However in the past it was usually only locally based. With the internet it opened up a whole new arena of possibilities. What is of main focus here is balanced nutrition and meals orientated around a healthy eating pattern whether that be weight loss or just simply improving your diet.
When one thinks of dietary meal plans one thinks of (to me anyway) that icon in the marketplace Jenny Craig who first started in the pre-world wide web year of 1983. Probably by far the biggest exponent in this field. Even though that was 24 years ago the amount of competitors is still thin on the ground. The emphasis these days is on quality gourmet style healthy foods efficiently delivered at a reasonable cost to the consumer.
This service industry really is quite applicable in a modern world when people are quite busy with jobs and careers, often working long hours thus making it almost impractical to cook meals at home every day for the whole family. Given this situation the splurge on fast food just for convenience can be very tempting. Therefore home delivered nutritious meals could well be the answer. There is no doubting the stage is set for huge growth within this market.
A whole world of cuisine awaits you, of soft lingering tantalizing aroma's and a carefully prepared blend of colour and mouthwatering exotic tastes without all the kitchen chaos or even dishes to wash afterwards to dampen the moment. This is modern living at its best.
Here is a profile of two major players.

How much does the Diet-to-Go plan cost?
