Welcome to Lettuce Explain! - A Blog by Made

In a city as fast-paced as Calgary, it’s easy to fall into the routine of grabbing whatever’s quickest for dinner. But more people are looking for something better—something made with intention. That’s exactly what we do at Made Foods. And now, we’re pulling back the curtain to share more than just meals.

Welcome to Lettuce Explain, our new blog about food, convenience, and the choices that shape how we eat.

We’re here to talk about more than just what’s for dinner. Think practical tips for staying nourished on a tight schedule, stories behind the meals we deliver, and simple ideas for making healthy eating easier—even if you’re not the “meal prep” type.

We know that prepared meals in Calgary come in all shapes and styles. But our approach is different. Local ingredients. Real chefs. No guesswork. Just good food, delivered fresh, so you can keep your day moving.

On this blog, you’ll find:

• Quick reads on healthful eating that won’t waste your time
• Meal delivery breakdowns that help you decide what fits your week
• The occasional behind-the-scenes story from our kitchen
• Seasonal food ideas and rotating menu highlights
• Quiet encouragement to eat well—on your terms

Our goal? To keep things useful, real, and low on fluff. If you're here, you’re probably not looking for vague wellness mantras. You want meals that work. A delivery service that shows up. Food that tastes good and feels right.

This blog is an extension of that. Just like our menu, it’s made for real life.

Thanks for stopping by. We’re glad you’re here.
