The nightmare scenario that's dogged Blue Apron's stock ever since its muted IPO is here: Amazon is trying its hand at selling its own meal kits. 。

that the latter cost $19 and served two, making it around the same price as the average item in Blue Apron's weekly subscription plan. 。
As with anything within AmazonFresh, customers must pay a $15-per-month fee on top of their Prime membership in order to purchase the meal kits. Judging from the dates of customer reviews, the meal kit trial has been happening since June. 。
While select meal kits were previously sold through AmazonFresh, they were all made by third-party brands like Tyson Tastemakers until now. 。
