Gourmet delivery, by the numbers

As much as I rely on Seamless and GrubHub for satisfying my late-night dolmades and lahsooni gobi cravings (can't help but support my former employer), they're not particularly my favorite delivery service. It doesn't help that the cemitas delivery guy never knows where to find me, and the man who sends said gobi to my stomach also has proposed to me multiple times—one such proposal involved the mention of feeding me soup. 

So when David Chang-helmed Maple first hit the ground running, naturally I was stoked about a specially-curated, high-quality, somewhat-healthy menu hitting my inbox every day. The few times I've relied on them for lunch, saying that I was satisfied would be a gross understatement. Take their arctic char, for instance; it could compete with some of other Chang's seafood dishes at some of his upscale joints. 

At this point, the masses have spoken enough for the company to compile data on some of their consumers' faves. One "notable" (or fairly obvious, depending on how you look at it): everyone LURVES avocado. Says Maple CEO Caleb Merkl: 

"People. Love. Avocado. Items with avocado do, on average, 21% better than their avocado-less equivalent—across all days.

I mean, who can resist something so creamy and irresistible?
