Backed With $1.4 Million, Plated Adds A Social Spin To Its Ready-To-Cook Meal Delivery Service

logo_242-platedFor the past several years, my New Year's resolution has been some version of "cook more often" or "try out a new recipe every week." But it never really lasts. The problem is, as much as I love the act of actually cooking, so much of the stuff that happens around it is a huge hassle -- choosing a recipe, shopping for all the ingredients (especially those spices you only need a tablespoon of, but have to buy a whole bottle), ending up with a bunch of leftovers. A New York City-based startup called Plated feels my pain -- and just raised a $1.4 million seed round led by ff Venture Capital along with angels including Manischewitz Company CEO Alain Bankier, Facebook vet Andrew McCollom, and LA-based "adrenaline-fueled" investor Paige Craig.
