Anthony Joshua teams up with Prep Kitchen in two-time world champion's latest partnership - as speculation continues over Tyson Fury showdown
Anthony Joshua has been announced as an ambassador for the home meal delivery service Prep Kitchen. The partnership comes with Joshua currently out of the ring following his loss to Daniel Dubois last September, with the two-time world champion recently revealing he needed to undergo a minor elbow surgery. Joshua remains tipped to have a battle of Britain showdown with Tyson Fury in the near future, with the Gypsy King having dropped several hints that he could U-turn on his latest retirement. The British star has underlined his commitment to health and fitness by teaming up with Prep Kitchen, with the company highlighting their aims to deliver nutritious, gourmet-level meals made by Michelin-trained chefs. 'Being able to achieve excellence relies so heavily upon the foods we fuel our body with,' Joshua said. 'Yet, it can be difficult to maintain a level of discipline when immersed in an intense training schedule. 'That's why partnering with Prep Kitchen affords me the peace of mind that I am receiving protein packed meals that keep me fuelled during training without compromising on the quality. 'Simply put - I can prep less, and train more.' As part of the collaboration, Joshua will reportedly work with Prep Kitchen's head of food, Paul Mason, to creative an exclusive range of meals. The meals will be inspired by Nigerian culture in honour of Joshua's heritage and will feature in their weekly menu. The range will include West African Style Red Pepper and Peanut Chicken, Suya Beef with Jollof Rice, and a Nigerian Fish Curry, with the first meals set to be available from June 22. Prep Kitchen have welcomed the partnership with Joshua, stating he is known for his discipline, drive, and dedication to peak performance. The company claims the addition of Joshua as partner marks a 'significant milestone' for Prep Kitchen. 'At Prep Kitchen, we are beyond delighted to partner with Anthony Joshua - a sporting icon we respect so highly, who shares our passion for achieving excellence and elite standards both in the ring and on the plate,' said Will Fish, Prep Kitchen co-founder. 'We hope that this partnership will demonstrate that there exists high-quality meals for people looking to achieve their health goals and that you can eat well, even on your busiest days.' Joshua is the latest athlete to partner with the company after heptathlon world champion Katarina Johnson-Thompson and Eddie Hall, formerly Britain's strongest man. Prep Kitchen have joined Joshua's large stable of partners, which also include DAZN, Under Armour, Hugo Boss, Audemars Piguet, Lucozade Sport, Bulk and Jaguar Land Rover. The two-time world champion will be awaiting his latest opponent when he returns to fitness, with his promoter Eddie Hearn recently claiming he could still fight twice this year.

The good news: Meal delivery frequency for homebound York County seniors triples. The bad news?
YORK COUNTY, Pa. (WHTM) — Every Monday, Tom Goebeler loads his car with enough prepared meal trays to feed about 14 or 15 homebound seniors for the week. He's been doing this for about a decade, long enough to remember when — back before the COVID-19 pandemic — deliveries were three times a week, meaning no need to freeze and defrost as much food plus an important benefit that has nothing to do with food. 'We're made to be alert to any medical or perhaps even a mental issue that someone might be having,' said Goebeler, who is retired and spends about an hour and a half each week delivering meals. He recalls one woman who looked to be home but didn't answer the door no matter how many times he knocked, rang or yelled. He called the senior center, where leaders were able to confirm the woman was home, based on the location of her phone. They called EMTs to check on the woman. 'She dropped her phone behind the bed, got down to get it, couldn't reach it and couldn't get up,' Goebeler said. They helped her up, and she was fine, thanks partly to the visit. Well good news: Starting July 1, meal delivery in York County will once again rise to three times a week. 'So we're going to be doing Monday, Wednesday, Friday, which also makes us then have to increase the number of volunteers that we have,' said Jenna Lawrence, executive director of the Windy Hill on the Campus senior center in Spring Grove. In other words: They need a lot more Tom Goebelers — people with cars and driver's licenses and time (including, for people who aren't retired, time at work to volunteer provided by some large companies), and not even a lot of time: just those 90-or-so minutes, and 'it could be once a week,' Lawrence said. 'It could be once a month.' They're happy to have more help Mondays, 'but Wednesday and Friday are the main focus right now,' Lawrence said. If you or someone you know is interested in helping, contact the county's Area Agency on Aging at 717-771-9610 or call your local senior center; 10 of the county's 14 senior centers participate in the home-delivered meals program. 'These people really truly rely on these meals,' which are provided free to the people who get them, Lawrence said. 'They don't have transportation to get to the grocery store. This is the only meal they're receiving.' Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.

Save $180 Off Our Favorite Meal Delivery Service Ahead of Memorial Day Weekend
We live busy lives and sometimes a trip to the grocery store can feel like a hassle. One way to save time but still keep up with creating healthy, fresh meals is to consider a meal delivery kit. These kits provide the ingredients you need to whip up dinner without having to meal plan and shop. One of our favorites, Blue Apron, is currently offering an enticing special ahead of Memorial Day. From now until June 29, new customers can enjoy up to $180 off their first five boxes from Blue Apron. That's the equivalent of up to 22 free meals and the first week ships free. Blue Apron is a custom meal delivery kit that provides all the ingredients you need to prepare your chosen meal. They also have some prepared meals that you can just heat and serve for those super busy nights. Meals with this offer begin shipping May 19 and include a delicious array of recipes to choose from. The offer requires you to sign up for five weeks of continuous service. The service will auto renew at the end of five weeks, but you can cancel or change it once the five weeks is up. Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money. Although previously rated as the top pick overall for meal delivery, our reviews team recently tried Blue Apron and compared notes. Flex editor Corin Cesaric appreciated that the meals were fairly simple to cook while still offering an impressive flavor palate. Wellness editor Anna Gragert found that for those of us who are vegetarian, Blue Apron offers a impressive variety of veg-friendly recipes. She also found the produce to be high quality. There is no special offer code required to redeem this offer, but you must be a new customer. Visit Blue Apron's site to redeem the offer, browse pricing categories and choose your meals. You can customize your box not only by meal preferences, but also by frequency and quantity. Recipes included in this offer are fit for a Memorial Day feast. Think crab cakes and spicy caper mayo, honey-habanero potato salad, buffalo chicken dip and plenty more. Why this deal matters With the rising cost of groceries, being mindful of budgets and food waste can be critical. Our Senior Home and Kitchen editor David Watsky did a comparison of Blue Apron vs. groceries to see what actually cost more. He found that buying the ingredients yourself at the grocery store didn't save you money, and in fact, in many cases per serving Blue Apron was less expensive. If you're looking for a more affordable meal kit, Blue Apron is one of the most budget friendly. With the additional savings it just makes sense if you're ready to try one out.

Will DoorDash takeover of Deliveroo mean better pay and conditions for gig economy workers?
Earlier this week, US meal delivery group DoorDash agreed a deal to take over its British rival Deliveroo, which has a big presence in Ireland. The deal is valued at £2.9 billion and will pit the merged group in competition with other online delivery platforms such as Just Eat and Uber Eats. Callum Cant is an author and senior lecturer from the University of Essex and also worked for Deliveroo while he was in college. He joined host Ciarán Hancock on the line to discuss the merger and what it might mean for Deliveroo's battalion of gig economy workers and for retailers using the online ordering platform. READ MORE Also on this week's Inside Business, the Department of Finance's annual progress report on the Irish economy, a document that informs budgetary strategy and is filed with the European Commission. This week it brought news of a slowdown in growth, reduced job creation and a significant fall in corporation tax receipts. Eoin Burke-Kennedy covered the story for The Irish Times and explained the headline numbers in the report and what impact Trump's tariffs will have on Irish economic growth this year.
