Here’s how to get the most out of delivery day, and what to do if you can’t finish everything in one sitting.

Why “Eat It Fresh” Is a Feature, Not a Chore

Most meal delivery services optimize for a full week in your fridge. We optimize for flavor and quality — which means your meal is built to be eaten shortly after it arrives, not stored away for later in the week. Think of it less like a packaged product and more like a meal made to order at a restaurant, just delivered to your door instead of a table.

The short version: enjoy your meal the same day, ideally within a few hours of delivery, for the best taste and texture.

Got Leftovers? Here’s How to Keep Them Safe

Ordered a bit more than you could finish? No problem — here’s how to handle the rest properly:

• Get it into the fridge quickly. Don’t let a meal sit out at room temperature for more than two hours.
• No need to transfer containers — your meal already comes in an airtight, microwave-safe container, so it goes straight into the fridge and straight back out for reheating. (And once you’re done, it’s sturdy enough to rinse and reuse at home.)
• Aim to finish leftovers within 24 hours for the best taste and quality.
• We don’t recommend freezing your GT•FTR meals — they’re made to be enjoyed fresh, not stored long-term, so freezing can affect both taste and texture.

Reheating Leftovers the Right Way

If you do have some left over, a gentle reheat keeps things tasting close to fresh:

Microwave: Your container is microwave-safe, so you can reheat right in it — just vent the lid slightly first. Heat in short 60–90 second bursts, stirring in between, rather than one long blast. Let it rest a moment before eating.

Stovetop: Prefer a pan? Transfer the food to a covered pan on medium-low heat, with a small splash of water, to warm things evenly without drying them out.

Either way, heat until steaming hot all the way through, and only reheat a portion once.

What’s Coming Next

We’re working on refrigerated and frozen meal options for customers who want to stock up for the week ahead — when that launches, we’ll walk you through exactly how to store and reheat those for the best results. For now, though, the best way to enjoy GT•FTR is simple: order what you’ll eat, and eat it fresh.
