Dead company. Do not order. - Edit
I was around when this company first started. They were a good company at that time. Then they did a StartEngine investment project. I was very close to investing, because at the time they were doing a good job. After their investment drive ended, they immediately started making changes. Moved their warehouse to the mid-west. Service started dropping off significantly, as well as their selection. I stopped ordering as often, but would still find one or two products there I couldn't readily get elsewhere. Well I placed an order recently after a long hiatus from ordering from them. I even ordered a couple of products that are just shipped directly from the vendor. It has been over a month and I have not received my products. I reached out to GTFO, and have not received a response. I would warn anyone of using this site in the future. You are likely throwing your money away. Sad really. They had so much potential and they wasted it. I would not be very surprised if the owners took the investment money from those that did, and ran away with it.

I won’t be using this service again. - Edit
Purchased a few things that took two weeks to process and ship. The vegan cheese was sent with two days left before it expired.

Unique stuff - Edit
I ordered a few things for my boyfriend's bday meal that I could not find elsewhere. Since it was cold 'meaty' things it had to be cold shipped. It was a little pricey but not out of step with what I would have paid elsewhere. This is not a weekly or even a monthly thing, more like a once in awhile treat. Some of the stuff on the site is accessible to me at the grocery store so I would rather skip paying shipping obviously.

The birthday dinner I made is the picture posted. I bought the steak and prosciutto from GTFO.
Pros: Large selection
Cons: Price can add up

Do not pay their works, cannot support it - Edit
Do not order from this company! We provided services to them and gave them a long to pay and it was all empty promises. As vegans we wanted to be a big part of a project like this, but it just isn't the one. Find a friendly vegan place that supports their workers!
Read morePros: Online vegan delivery is a nice idea
Cons: Don't pay their bills, Unresponsive, Expensive

That sucks! Do you have any specifics to share? Also, you say as vegans, but yer profile says vegetarian?

We worked with them managing their advertising on Facebook and Instagram. We have team members that are both vegetarian and vegan. If you have any questions let us know!

No stars if I could - Edit
They sent expired product and refused to replace it. They said it was too expensive to send fresh product so they would only refund. I guess its not too expensive when I’m paying the shipping. So, if I want to get what I paid for - fresh product - I would have to pay the shipping again even though it was their mistake. Take your chances if you want - maybe you’ll be luckier than me and get what you paid for - fresh product.

Amazing Vegan Selection! - Edit
This website is awesome! Seriously they have the best selection of vegan food out there. The even have one of my favorite bakeries I use to go to before I moved. Now I can get it delivered right to my door. The even carry the famous WF orange chicken in bulk
Read more(can't remember the name but it's there)!!! I literally ordered on MON and it arrived at my doorstep on WED Frozen! I have previously shopped online at another vegan store and would always have issues with warm or missing items or wait forever for it to arrive. Finally found my go to place!!! Thank you!!
Pros: quick delivery, massive selection, , great customer service
Cons: none

Great Service, Great Products - Go for Pickup if you're in LA/OC! - Edit
ORDER UNCREAMERY BRIE, this is my best advice.
Read moreI ordered from them for a while delivery but I hate plastic packaging so I stopped. Turns out a I moved like 20 minutes from their distribution center, nice!
They're very good with coordinating local pickup and it's the cheapest and freshest option with the least oil used. Here's to the day they open physical grocery stores!
RE: people claiming recipe theft of the "everything bagel"... listen, it's a prepackaged vegan biscuit rolled in premixed everything bagel seasoning. Two ingredients, both of them from established brands. My GF and I have been making sesame bagels with this method for months long before I read this page of reviews and found GTFO and blkandvegan posted recipes for this method.
If GTFO were "stealing" a 12-ingredient complex and original masterpiece, I'd better understand the drama. But this is two preprocessed products that I and others have been using in this fashion for a while. So maybe calm down a lil???
Pros: Insane selection of niche products at good prices, Even the brie from my old SF vegan cheese outfit!, Responsive and helpful service
Cons: Shipping uses tons of plastic and cold mailers, Pickup presently only available for OC or nearby, If the post delays your order it may melt :(

Items not mailed - Edit
Ordered from them for the first time last Friday. I work nights at a hospital and plan when I receive items I order so I'll be home and not sleeping. I didn't get a notice that the items had been shipped yesterday. I emailed them today asking if the items are being mailed today. I got no help whatsoever. Their "customer service" is in Nevada and they are in Santa Anna, California. After 3 emails I called, but no call back or email. Extremely poor customer service. Now I'm just trying to get my money back. Update: They emailed and said the order would be here Thursday, which is today. Again no shipping information. I emailed and said if it hasn't been mailed cancel it. I got an email an hour ago stating they just mailed it. So, they lied to me saying it would be here Thursday. When people lie to you like this they think it's ok to do so. The reason for this is direction from the owners. So, if you read this and still decide to order from them good luck!

How have I never heard of this site until now?! - Edit
I cannot believe that I am just now learning about this company! My wife and I have been Vegan for ten years and it's becoming so much easier to find good vegan selections. We have used this site a few times and we will definitely order again. My kids even like a lot of the food we order on there. Our favorite so far have been the cheeses and the poppi "soda".

So Impressed! - Edit
This is the second review I am making about this company because I am just so thrilled that my father and I have found it. It makes our lives so much easier. My father is newly vegan and he was frustrated at first having to look through all the labels at the store. This is a one stop shop for us now to get all the vegan products we want without thinking twice and they have so many brands that we are discovering and loving. They even sell Siete, which is our personal favorite brand at the moment! The shipping is also pretty quick which is a major plus.
Read morePros: We were able to order refrigerated food!, Love their instagram page to get new recipes , The selection is awesome.

I LOVE GTFO for many reasons!! The variety of products that they carry is amazing, they have over 2,500 VEGAN PRODUCTS from all over the world, wow!! A lot of their products come from small businesses, which is so great because I wouldn't be able to try them without GTFO!!
Read moreI have purchased from them many times and everything has been perfect, products came the next day and very well packed. I also LOVE their Instagram https://www.instagram.com/gtfoitsvegan/ they have great recipes and they are so responsive and kind!
Obsessed with this company! Fun fact: They are women and Hispanic-owned business!!

They Are One of Us - Edit
When I first visited their website, I realize that this was the place I was looking for, for so long. My grocery chains only have limited vegan options. It seems like GTFO has them all or is working on adding the products I’m looking for. I was so thrilled that they carried my favorite vegan sushi, amazing!
Read morePros: Family owned business, Charlotte does a great job with recipes l

Excellent product variety - Edit
I am loving the variety of products they have on their website (specially the cheese section they have SO MUCH STUFF) I’m a new vegan so it’s been incredible to be able to find all the meat and dairy alternatives in on place, it has made my transition so much easier... and the bakery section makes me want to buy everything omg.
Read moreMy first order took a little bit longer to arrive than I expected but everything arrived just fine! Later I learned that it’s best to order early in the week because of their shipping dates and because how long it takes to process the order, so have that in mind if you’re ordering for the first time!
Honestly I’m super happy with everything... I already have a few things I get regularly, but I always like to add something new to my cart to try it out! 😊
I hope this is helpful to new vegans!
Pros: Product variety, Recipe ideas

Great Service and Conpany - Edit
My package arrived frozen and intact basically overnighted from when I ordered. The have a ton of products to choose from and very helpful when I wasn’t sure if I would like a certain product before I ordered it. I get a lot of inspiration from their IG and also love the fact they get some amazing products in. Most online markets have the junk you can get at target that’s vegan. This place has it all!
Read morePros: Arrived frozen, Great customer service

Yummy Box - Edit
I love that they got so many different products that taste, look and feel like “the real thing”, for example bacon (Real bacon is also not kosher) or salmon sashimi.
Read moreThe website is really simple to use which is an advantage, and they’re located in Southern California so it makes the shipping affordable.
Pros: Huge variety of vegan foods, Vegan sashimi is amazing, Website is great
Cons: Some of the products out of stock

Dishonest company that deletes negative reviews - Edit
As said in the title, they delete one-star reviews, which leads people to buy products they might not otherwise buy. I was excited to find out about this company and placed an order for more than $100 to try out some new things. One of the products was a $15 package of vegan tuna. It was horrible. Flavorless with an off-putting texture, and the combination of the two made it inedible for me so I threw the whole thing away. I left an honest one-star review saying just that. The only other reviews were glowing, which I found a bit strange. $15 is a lot to spend on one item, so it makes sense to warn others that it might not be worth it. I also ended up throwing away a few other products, including a $15 salmon from the same brand as the tuna.
Read moreA few weeks later I went on the website to see if they had new stuff and I noticed that my review was gone. I emailed them to ask what had happened and whether their policy is to not allow one-star reviews. It took me several weeks and several attempts to get an answer, but they finally said that they had taken it down because "they felt the tone of your comments was not in line with our guiding principles". The tone of my comments was not vulgar or rude, simply honest. They went on to say "You are welcome to submit / submit reviews that take a more constructive tone, something that is both helpful to customers but also not incredibly damaging to the up and coming vendors just trying to make their mark on the plant based community."
In other words, one-star reviews are not allowed because they are damaging to the companies, but they don't have a problem doing damage to their clients by hoodwinking them into spending money on products that they might otherwise avoid. They refused to refund me, saying they don't refund for "personal taste". But it's not about personal taste, it's about false advertising. The products I threw away might have had a bunch of negative reviews that all had gotten deleted.
I won't be buying from GTFO again. In addition to the dishonesty and the bad faith and obnoxious tut-tutting about "tone", I realized that the reason they stock things I haven't seen elsewhere is that a lot of them just aren't good enough to make it into the stores.
(Happy Cow automatically gives a minimum of two-stars for fully vegan or vegetarian companies, otherwise I would have given one-star)

Recipe theft - Edit
Stealing content from Black creators and instead of righting their wrongs when called out, they decided to block and delete whoever brought this up to them.
Read morePros: They are showing their true colors
Cons: Theft , Inability to take responsibility for their actions, Racism
VeganQueening
I love how there is a million recipes people duplicate and one person posts it and thinks the world is following them. Girl, please..I think this company is smart enough not to take from a random nobody and post as their own. Stop flattering yourself. Tons of talent out there..whoever you are, you aren’t the only recipe creator that exists

Content/Recipe Theft - Edit
I placed my first order with this company about a month ago. I’d give that a 4/5 for a missing item.
Read moreNow, the 1 star is strictly due to the fact that they have unapologetically stolen a recipe from a black content creator on Instagram. She has worked very hard to build her name & she has done nothing to warrant this. Rather than have an intelligent & professional conversation, they are blocking & deleting comments of those who are respectfully petitioning for her. This is wrong & hurtful, & they really need to do better. How can we support a company who blatantly disrespects us? What do they really stand for?
Pros: They showed their true colors, I won’t spend money with them again , I didn’t cuss them out as I should have
Cons: They still have a large following , They are being unprofessional , They refuse to let this be a teachable moment

Recipe Theft - so disappointing - Edit
GTFO it’s vegan has an amazing social media page - where they’ve now showcased an exact copy of a recipe that should have been credited to the original creator. The company is literally blocking people and deleting comments on their post of their exact copy of the recipe. People have remained respectful and merely asked for @blkandvegan to be credited properly, and instead this is the action they’ve chosen to take. I don’t understand why the company wouldn’t support BIPOC in any regard. This recipe theft is extremely noticeable and unfortunately has caused me to never purchase from the company. I can’t imagine I’m alone on that at this point. Not hard to credit the original recipe creator, especially for something so simple. Bizarre and disappointed in this.

Their replica of the same recipe (they even follow the original creator): https://www.instagram.com/reel/CMSUrbXBvQv/?igshid=1pzzu9vqxg6xl
Pros: Not, One, Pro
Cons: Recipe theft, Taking from BIPOC without credit in any regard, Blocking/deleting credit requests

First order - Edit
I just got my first order. I ordered many products that were not available in my local stores (even the specialty stores). I have already tried several fish-less items that I ordered as well as some vegan cheese. The food was fantastic. I will definitely be ordering again.
