Are Premium Frozen Meals Healthy? An Honest Look at the Numbers - Providoor

How to Compare Frozen Meal Nutrition

A frozen meal’s nutrition depends on the recipe and the amount you eat. The word “premium” does not establish a nutritional benefit. Start with the current product label and compare similar dishes on the same basis.

Read both nutrition columns

The per-100g column helps compare similar products; the per-serving column describes the stated portion. Check how many servings are in the pack and whether rice, pasta or other accompaniments are included.

Look at energy, saturated fat, sodium and the other listed nutrients in the context of the meal you intend to eat. The Australian Government’s food-label guide explains the panel and ingredient list.

Check ingredients and allergens

Read the full declaration and any trace warning for every part of the meal. A menu category can help you browse, but it does not replace the individual product information. If you have a dietary requirement that the label does not resolve, contact us before ordering.

Plan the whole plate

Think about what you will serve with the main and how it fits your household’s usual meals. Compare portions before adding sides; a two-serving sauce is not necessarily a complete two-person dinner.

Choose from the current menu

Browse current dishes and use each product page for its latest nutrition information. For taste and preparation considerations, read our frozen meal quality guide. This article is a label-reading guide, not personalised nutrition advice.

It appears that your voucher belongs to the old Providoor, which, unfortunately, is not us. :(

We understand how much the original Providoor meant to many Australians, especially during the challenging times of COVID. It provided a way to enjoy high-quality meals from beloved restaurants in the comfort of your home. We also understand that some of you may still hold vouchers from the previous iteration of Providoor, and we sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

When the original Providoor, unfortunately, went into administration, we made the decision to purchase the brand because we recognised its significance to so many Australians. Providoor was more than just a business; it was a source of comfort, connection, and joy during tough times. However, while we have revived and rebranded Providoor to focus on delivering gourmet frozen meals from celebrity chefs, we are a completely new company with a different business model and operations.

This means that we do not have any obligation to honour the vouchers issued by the previous company, as those financial liabilities were not transferred to us during the acquisition. We know this may be disappointing news, but please understand that we are committed to making this transition as smooth as possible for our valued customers.

Thank you again for your understanding and for being a part of Providoor’s journey. We are committed to providing you with the highest quality gourmet experiences, and we look forward to serving you in the future.

Warm regards,
The Providoor Team
