I ordered my first shipment and did not realize the meals would be delivered not froze. One meal was partially frozen. I threw all meals away and asked my account be cancelled. I did not ask for a refund, as I threw the meals in the trash without first calling and speaking with someone. I accept full responsibility for that mistake. However, I sent a total of 8 emails and three instant messages requesting cancellation of my account over a 3 day period without a response. I received an email letting me know my new order is being processed and my account has been charged. As a consumer Pete’s Paleo website make it impossible to cancel ones account or stop shipment of an order without having to take additional time to submit an email or call. I can’t speak to the quality of the meals, but do not recommend engaging their service unless you have time to dispute charges and take time out of your busy day to continuously follow-up with requests.

In reply to Megan. I personally won't use TOMS because it contains glycerin which can prevent teeth from healing. Try contacting the people at OraWellness.com. They have more experience with gum problems and might be able to help

I am sorry for all the questions.. I just admire your post so much. I have bad receding and swollen gums and they hurttt! I don’t want to go to the dentist because there is honestly little they can do.. if not make it worse. I do have a metal permanent retainer on my bottom teeth I would like your thoughts on that too.. I want it removed. But what could cause this and what are some practical things I could do to heal my gums? I switched to Toms no flouride toothpaste, but my teeth are still getting worse. I am not really the DIY type so if your could suggest things that I could purchase or habit I could start to put into effect. I just don’t want to lose my teeth. I am only 20 years old

Really enjoy your blog and have made many of your DIY projects. Wanted to let you know that Pete’s bacon probably does contain nitrites. I contacted them about the ingredients and they use celery powder which, according to BulletProof, is how you get nitrites to form without having to add them. So they should probably market the bacon similarly to how Trader Joe’s does: “no nitrates or nitrites added” with an asterisk “except that which is naturally occurring in celery powder.” Here’s more info:

Love your blog! This is very helpful. We just bought a house and are moving at the end of March. I think I just found a way to eat healthy, when my kitchen is packed up and inaccessible. Thank you! (Probably a bit cheaper than a week of take-out anyway since it is just two of us, and definitely healthier!)
