If you are looking to cancel Hungryroot quickly and don’t want to waste your time with support, this mini guide is for you.

Let’s jump right in:

What about My Hungryroot Balance?

While canceling your subscription, you might notice a yellow message box stating that you will lose all the money in your Hungryroot wallet if you cancel. If you have a significant amount in this wallet, it’s essential to figure out what to do with the balance.

One option is to use the remaining funds for one last order. However, if you’d rather have the funds back, you can email Hungryroot’s customer support team at [email protected]. Although Hungryroot doesn’t explicitly mention refunds on remaining wallet money, it’s worth a try.

Hungryroot Alternatives to Consider

Our editorial team has tested virtually every meal delivery box out there. If you’ve had a bad experience with Hungryroot, or just need something that’s a better fit (budget, diet, or preference), there are some great options to consider:

Thrive Market: If you want a similar array of quality health foods and specialty foods but don’t need the meal prep directions, Thrive is a great fit for quality shelf stable foods (and fresh meat). It functions as a co-op with a small annual membership fee vs recurring monthly plans.
Misfits Market: If you are looking specifically for fresh produce delivery, Misfits is a great option to consider for high quality (if sometimes hilariously “differently shaped” produce).
HelloFresh: On the flipside, if you prefer to just have a high-quality straight meal planning service with all of the pre-portioned fresh ingredients and instructions for every meal, HelloFresh is a nice change of pace.
