About Fork & File

Fork & File is an editorial review project from the team behind EatEasy. We built this site to walk through our own app honestly — what it does well, where it falls short, and who it actually suits.

How we test

  • We subscribe at our own cost and use the product for at least a full month.
  • We cook from the plans on ordinary weeknights, not staged photo days.
  • We shop from the app's own grocery guidance to see whether it holds up in a store.
  • We track how often we abandoned the plan, and why.

How we score

Every review is scored out of 5 across four criteria, weighted equally: usefulness of the plan structure, quality and realism of the recipes, value for money against the monthly price, and how easy the product is to leave. That last one matters — a subscription that is painful to cancel loses points regardless of how good the recipes are.

Transparency

Fork & File is published by the makers of EatEasy, so this is not an independent third-party review. We have a direct interest in EatEasy's success. That said, we've aimed to write a detailed, honest review that includes real limitations of the app. Full details are on our affiliate disclosure page.
