Have you ever ordered food from the angel food ministries? What is your opinion of the food?

Posted by admin on February 27th, 2010 and filed under ministries | 7 Comments »

http://www.angelfoodministries.com the site for reference if you are not sure what I am talking about.

My aunt ordered from them, and gave us the items she did not want. The highest quality items are about on par with supermarket brands. The lowest quality items are practically inedible. She made a point that the meat "smelled of chemicals", which I guess is to be expected After we declined her generosity on the second order, she decided it wasn’t worth it, and didn’t order again.

Here is a longer review from the net which basically concurs with our conclusion.

Angel Food Ministries is a non-profit, non-denominational organization which offers food to everyone at discounted price. Their site says that the food includes restaurant grade meats, frozen vegetables, fruits, dairy products, etc. which they receive producers/vendors of high quality, name brand foods.

The price is $25 per box of food. Then box contains a diverse menu of mostly raw foods such as meats, noodles, dinner kits, condiments, and more. The menu changes monthly. The program, along with the $25 menu, offers a few specials costing around $18 each and features mainly meats such as NY strip steaks and thick-cut pork chops.

Angel Food says that each $25 regular box menu has a retail value of approximately $42 to $78. One box should to feed a family of four for about one week or a single senior citizen for almost a month.

People, who want to buy a box, go to their nearest church host site, place their orders and pay for the food with cash or food stamps by the month’s posted registration deadline. Near the middle of the month, at a posted date, the food arrives and is distributed at the host site.

For more Information, visit the Angel Food Ministries website.

We bought one box. It is not the best tasting food. About 25% was very good, another 25% was acceptable, 25% was barely acceptable, but the other 25% was not good at all. Their meat has a bit of preservatives that ruin much of the taste. It’s really hit or miss.

Here is the $25 menu I received:

(6) 4 oz. Hamburger Steaks with Bacon
(1) 2 lbs. Salisbury Steak Entree w/ Gravy
(4) 6 oz. Pork Chops
(1) 2 lb. Breaded Chicken Breast Filets
(1) 1 lb. Ground Beef
(1) 2 lb. Breaded Chicken Fritters
(1) 12 in. Tostino’s Pizza Rolls
(1) 16 oz. Corn Dogs
(1) 20 oz. French Fries
(1) 16 oz. Corn
(1) 15 oz. Pork & Beans
(1) 16 oz. Bean Soup Mix
(1) 16 oz. Rice
(1) 6 oz. Pancake Mix
(1) 16 oz. Green Beans
(1) 30 oz. Apple Pie

    There is nothing like angel in this Universe if some human act like an angel that is different. I have no interest in angelfoodministries. You ur self seems doubtful so the question is not valid.

    I’ve looked at the brochure, but never really ordered the food because there isn’t ever a package that I can eat everything in.
    Sorry I can’t help you more.

    I know the one near my house is very, very heavy on frozen meats. It seems, cost-wise, to be a great value and I like the way they allow anyone to use the program without proof of "need", but there are healthier (and equally economic) ways to feed a family (or oneself) without relying so much on meat.

    There is another organization out there, called Food Share America – http://www.foodshareamerica.com. There are no qualifications, no fees and no commitments. They offer smaller packages and ala-cart items in addition to the boxes similar to what Angel Food offers.
