Want to satisfy some finicky eaters in your household, or just want to take the guesswork — or, TBH, stresswork — out of mealtimes or snacks? The answer is pretty simple: an expertly curated food subscription box.

Food subscription boxes are a godsend for busy households that need a bit of help with dinners or simply want to shake things up each month. They're also a fun way to sample new cuisines, food types, or drink varieties that would otherwise not be in your regular rotation.

Personalized food subscription boxes, in particular, are not only practical and time-saving, but these on our list also happen to be insanely delicious, unique and, most of the time, educational. As in, a cheesemonger has already sampled cheeses from around the world and made an insanely put-together cheese plate just for you, and all you have to do is click a button ... and voilá. Tell your friends, host a party — you, too, are now a cheese expert (and who are they to diss a brie?).

From sommelier-approved wines to dessert assortments to make anyone drool, these curated food subscription boxes are sure to make any foodie — or your resident Picky Eater — look forward to delivery day.

Wine Subscription

Let's be real: Very few things beat a wine subscription! Food subscription boxes are great and all, but we think a wine subscription might be even better.

Purchase a Winc subscription and have the freedom to pick and choose from a bunch of different varietals.

"It doesn't matter if you like citrusy whites or full-bodied reds — Winc has both and so much more," says Erica Murphy, SEO and commerce director. “Each shipment comes complete with four bottles of either all red, all white, or a variety (this is something you’ll determine in the initial questionnaire). There’s no set fee each month. The cost is simply determined by the price of each bottle in your box.”
