How Simmer works

Good for Simmer
Simmer may suit UK customers who want a currently orderable recurring box of ready-to-heat meals from one provider.
Good for CookSocket
CookSocket currently suits eligible prepared-food Hosts configuring plan durations, meal periods, pricing and fulfilment—not customers seeking a live Web Meal Plan checkout.
