In case you've forgotten, it's the New Year -- 2013 is among us -- meaning that the amount of so-called easy diets and simple workout plans will be all over blogs (and well, everything), but Love with Food is a different take. At the same time, however, it's still easy. Essentially, for about $10 a month, you get a box of food delivered to your doorstep. The types of products range from "Muscat Grape Jelly" and "Whole Wheat Apple Fig Bars" to perhaps a less-friendly resolution nosh, "Dark Chocolate Hot Fudge."
What's different about Love with Food, that is, what makes it a social business is that for every box delivered, one meal is donated to a child in need. So far, they've donated over 17,000 meals in the United States.
