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

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