New York has every kind of food except one that's surprisingly rare: prepared meals from a facility with zero gluten on the premises. From Manhattan apartments to Buffalo family kitchens, FedEx delivers ours — cooked fresh in Tennessee, dedicated gluten-free by architecture, not by promise. Meals arrive via FedEx Ground in about two ground days. Order by Thursday at midnight.
SmashMeals cooks every meal in a dedicated gluten-free kitchen and does not bring wheat, barley, or rye into the facility. That avoids shared gluten-containing prep equipment and airborne flour from on-site gluten baking, which reduces cross-contact risk compared with a shared kitchen. Ingredients, suppliers, and handling still require controls, so customers with celiac disease should review each meal's ingredient and allergen information and make decisions based on their own medical guidance.
How much does shipping to New York cost?
Shipping is a $30 flat rate via FedEx, no matter how many meals you order. Local Tri-Cities, Tennessee customers can choose pickup or local delivery instead.
How do the meals stay fresh in transit to New York?
Meals ship cold in insulated packaging with ice packs sized for 2-day FedEx ground transit. When they arrive, refrigerate them right away. Most meals keep several days refrigerated, and many can be frozen.
When do I need to order?
Orders close Thursday at midnight each week. Meals are cooked fresh after ordering closes, ship early the following week, and reach New York in about two FedEx ground days.
Does delivery work for NYC apartment buildings?
Yes — FedEx delivers to residential buildings and doormen daily. The insulated box holds for hours; refrigerate when you collect it.
