Complete Failure! My order was delivered one day late. I received an email that said I should not worry because they pack plenty of dry ice. Not only was all the dry ice gone, almost all of the meat thawed. I have to throw it away. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY! Find a local farm and support them. I am editing my comment to say they told me even if the dry ice is gone and the meat is thawed, it is still safe to eat. They credited my account on my next order, but will not cancel my subscription nor issue a credit. I will not be placing another order.

I am a relatively new customer of Crowd Cow. NOTE: if you have a problem with crowd cow you can not speak with a person at the company…they only e-mail or text. I have placed two orders and both had problems with shipping. Both orders were shipped via FedEx. My first package arrived in my city and then FedEx said they could not read the label Crowd Cow put on so they sent it to another city…resulting in a delay of delivery. My second order was sent on a Tuesday scheduled to be delivered on Friday. On Friday FedEx informed me that the package had “expired” and they would be returning it to the shipper (Crowd Cow). I have cancelled my membership with Crowd Cow and am looking for other options.

After reading other reviews I hate to kick CC when they're down. But I will. First issue was partly my fault. I ordered what I thought was wild salmon. The marketing "from the fresh waters of blah blah blah" leads you to think so. But I noticed a small icon in the lower left of the package "sustainably raised". I went back to CC's page and sure enough if you read down the description the salmon is farm raised. But you have to read down or you'll think it's wild. Second issue my bag of scallops arrived with the bag torn and scallops had fallen out. My first attempt at communicating with CC led to a response explaining the how what and why this can happen and reassuring me that the scallops are still safe to eat. HUH??? Fortunately a second communication led to a credit on my next order. On my 3rd (and last) order I was charged shipping because my order was below the what they require for free shipping and that was because 2/3 of my order was out of stock. I was not going to pay $12.99 in shipping for 1 lb of ground lamb. I managed to get my order back up to the free shipping threshold, but it took some maneuvering. The fact that you can't talk to live support made it even trickier. So that was it for me.

Yes my shipping was bad but I my order was placed in Dallas around the time of a massive winter storms last winter. I figured it was going to take a while. The quality of this food is just horrible and I am done trying to cook it creatively. The ground meats are way overpriced. I am tossing multiple packs of pre-patted hamburger patties along with some A5 (WT ?) sirloins that defy description in just how curious they taste. The Spatchcock chicken tastes like a goddamn Roadrunner. Just do what I should have done in the first place…go to Costco.

Low quality for a high price. The smoked salmon tasted like canned salmon, and the venison sausages were hard to eat. Most of the box just ended up going to my dogs. I really cannot believe this company is still in business.

We have been with them for over a year. We love the products... individual packaging is lacking in quality though, very leaky... and our final straw is the terrible shipping. They use the lowest tier of FedEx. There have always been delivery issues from day 1... but today I had to throw out an entire box of meat. It's so disrespectful to the animal that died for this waste, to the ranchers and those who are starving around the world. It's just not worth it at this point. They need to change delivery. It always barely made it and the drivers that do deliver it throw it at the end of our VERY long shared driveway. The never deliver it to the door. For the price you pay, they need to pay for better shipping. We are canceling our subscription and going to try to go more local. Hopefully we can get a refund.

I never received shipment. Please help. I'm a disabled veteran from Iraq. 3rd armored 12th combat engineers. I have a very little income and I saved for a treat. They never delivered. Bad deal on crowd cow. Very bad.

We ordered Wagyu beef from Crowd Cow. While the meat looked similar to Wagyu beef, it did not taste like Wagyu beef in Japan. We felt nausea after eating the beef from Crowd Cow. We have been to Japan several times. The Wagyu beef from Crowd Cow is vastly inferior to the Wagyu beef in Japan. Crowd Cow should be ashamed of selling low-quality beef! This company seems to be a fraud.
