    Default MFB - My Food Bag

    no doubt Theresa setting this up for an IPO ..... one day

    Heck the way things are being valued this would have to be a billion dollar business ....maybe not a billion but a few hundred million at least

    My Food Bag huh? Teresa looks like she's been at a few herself.....bad boy..baaaddd boy. Sorry its just big bones I know. Name is uninspiring for the prices they are charging. How about "gourmet on the go" or "meals on heals" or something with some sex appeal.

    Looking at the prices, a very limited target market in NZ - those rich enough to afford but not time sensitive enough that they have time to cook 5 nights a week. If it was the US, it would be a flyer (not big enough for IPO though), but in NZ, i'm not sure. If they did prepacked gourment heat and eat that actually looked and tasted gourmet, then it would have a bigger market in NZ (though again, not big enough for IPO).

    It could be a nice little niche business but dont expect it to get big.

    I agree. If folk still have to store stuff, cook it, clean up after - what they are gaining is shopping time, thinking-about-what-to-buy-and-cook time. Pricey but not too bad compared to ready-to-heat good quality meals in the supermarket. Web site is still fairly basic (compare it to eat.co.nz site which does ready-to-heat kiwi-style meals).

    I think Birmanboy is alluding to the possibility (from the picture in the Herald) that TG is maybe over-indulging in her own product.
    I had to smile... the post reflected my initial thought on the article too.
    Everything is relative though; maybe the picture is an illusion. Possibly TG is of an average build and the other 2 have to walk around in the shower to get wet.

    'My Food Bag' does not sound like a good name to me. Must have taken one hell of a brainstorming session to come up with that one. The only bag that I relate to food in any way is the one you can find in the seat pocket in front of you...

    HaHa !! Vaygor1 Maybe My Food Bag will morph into My Barf Bag. After TG's deceptive practices at Telecom, she has no credibility in my mind, but certainly, good on her for giving it a go. I hope it does well.

    amazing how that kate keeps so skinny .... fodbags that are a delight .... yummy yummy .... and the other night Mike taking her to the St Heliers Cafe with more yummy yummy stuff and last week at porto or something mike said kate just loved the yummy yummy stuff

    wonder if kate knew what to do with the foodbag .... or did the cook / nanny do the cooking

    just jealous of kate .... not so of mike

    but isn't this twitter wonderful for getting the message out there ..... and omg kate said she wasn't asked to send a tweet about foodbag .... must have been feeling guilty .... or did mike tell her to
