Medifast Food Favorites - Which Meals Are Included?

The other day, I had someone contact me and ask me about the "Medifast food favorites" package. After a bit of back and forth emails, I was able to figure out that she was really asking for more information the Medifast variety package. She wanted to know what foods were included and of those, which were my favorites. I will address these concerns in the following article.

What Comes In The Medifast Variety Package? (Which Includes The Most Popular Meals Or "The Favorites") I don't have any information on how the company chooses which meals to include in the variety packages. I suspect that they take into account which individual meals are brisk sellers and try to include some different flavors of those. And, looking at the list, it does appear that several really nice choices are included.

For example, there are over 40 shakes in flavors like Dutch Chocolate, French Vanilla, and strawberry, vanilla, and orange cremes. There are over 40 bars in flavors like chocolate mint, peanut butter, oatmeal raisin, lemon meringue and strawberry. There are a weeks' of scrambled eggs, puddings, and cappuccinos. And, there's 14 soups. They also always include some "bonus meals." This is sort of a grab bag. I always hope for new items. It would be great to open a package and see the new Medifast brownies, pancakes, or ice cream.

In terms of the variety packages my favorites are the dutch chocolate shakes, the eggs, the bars, and the cappuccino. In general, I gravitate toward sweets. Hopefully, this list has shown you that they try to give you many different flavors of the "fan favorites" so to speak. And I think that they do a pretty good job of this, although I will often order a few small standbys like some chili, brownies, and chips. It's worth it to me to have enough of my favorite items for the month. And I use the chili on an almost daily basis.

Can I Customize My Medifast Package?: Sometimes, people ask me if they have to go with the sample variety package. You don't. You can customize your package to reflect only your own individual favorites. Sometimes though, this cost a bit more because you're having to go in and chose enough of those items to make up roughly 145 meals (since you're eating five times per day for the entire month.)

Since people's personal favorites and the packages often overlap for many of the foods, I often advise people that it's usually cheaper to get a package (even if it's only a 2 week one) and then add on whatever additional items that you might want. The reason is that this will almost always work out to be cheaper. Not only are the packages discounted, but they allow the use of the best coupons. So, you will end up spending far less money than if you tried to hand pick a bunch of individual items which might have been included in the package anyway.
