The short answer
Which one, and for whom
There is no overall winner, because “overall” is not a thing anyone buys. These are the situations that actually decide it.
Dear Diet
You live in Angono
Nuthera does not deliver to Angono. A cheaper plan that never arrives costs infinity a day.
Nuthera
You live in Malabon, Pateros and San Mateo (Rizal)
Dear Diet does not deliver to Malabon, Pateros and San Mateo (Rizal). A cheaper plan that never arrives costs infinity a day.
Nuthera
You want seven days of food, not five
Nuthera's boxes run 7 days; Dear Diet's run 5, so the extra days are on you. You cannot buy them from them at any price.
Dear Diet
You are eating balanced eating
Nuthera sells no such plan. Their range is keto, low carb, diabetic-friendly, heart-friendly, high protein and PCOS-friendly, so on this axis it is not a comparison, it is a single option.

The same calories, priced against each other
Matched by calorie tier, because that is the only honest pairing. Both quotes are printed so you can check the division yourself.

₱4,200 a day, 15 meals · ₱280 a meal₱1,385
₱9,695 for 7 days, 3 meals + 1 snack · ₱462 a mealA calorie tier is the only pairing that compares food rather than packaging, and it is also where the axis stops helping: two plans at the same calories built for different goals are not substitutes, and no arithmetic will make them so.
Coverage
Where the price stops mattering
Coverage is the filter no round-up article offers, and on this pairing it decides more orders than price does.

What a head-to-head cannot settle
The comparison is incomplete
- Neither side has any diner figures at all. Both are under our 30-report floor, so neither on-time nor food figure publishes for either. Everything above is what we can check ourselves.
- Neither calorie figure is tested. Both are the provider’s own number.
- Prices were last read on 2 Nov 2026. None of the seven providers we track publishes a machine-readable feed, so either of these could have moved since.
And what it will never settle
Whether you will like it. We do measure taste — a fixed question, aggregated, with the base printed — but a percentage is a crowd, and repetitive chicken breast ends one person’s month and bothers another not at all. How taste is counted, and what the figure misses.
Still no star ratings and no written reviews. What we claim to know is what a day costs, whether it turns up when they said, whether diners called the food good and what they flagged, whether the portion matched, and whether the people who ordered it ordered again. Six figures and a price, each with its base printed.
