cooking magazine subscription

[Guest guest]

Hi

I would like to get a subscription to a cooking magazine to add some

variety to our life. Anyone have a suggestion that is somewhat in

line with WAP/NT?

Thanks,

h,

I don't have an answer for you other than that someone should start one!

Maybe called Traditional Foods???

How about Cook's Illustrated?

Judy and h,

I was a subscriber to Cook's for many years and enjoyed the magazine

until I received more renewal notices and ads for books etc.than I did

magazines. I would renew for 3 years and within 6 months I would get

another renewal notice (which, by the way, would not point out that I

still had 2 1/2 years to go, rather would make it look like I was on

my last issue). They did not seem to be able to stop this marketing

machine (I think they contract it out) so I finally just stopped

taking the magazine. I still occasionally buy one in a bookstore or

grocery store. (So h, you've been forewarned!)

I really like Cooks, too, but I always buy it at the

store because the subscription copy didn't come until

a week or so after the new issue appeared on the newstand.

This is exactly why I discontinued my membership with Prevention years

ago.... and I just took E-Magazine to task for sending me FOUR notices

plus another mail notice explaining why they send all those notices.

I mean.... doesn't that kind of misuse of resources fly in the face of

their very mission? I ask you! I cancelled my subscription and told

them in no uncertain terms exactly why! We must all do the same. I

don't care about the automatic notification system. Take me off it

now! Or lose a customer. Period.

Grin.

Have you looked at NT-recipes? It's another group with NT recipe

sharing at it's heart and a good deal of exchange on NT make-over of

recipes.

I like Bon Appetit and Gourmet, thought of getting their subscriptions

myself (Gourmet I like best). Besides the dessert recipes they're

fairly compatible, and they're often based on traditional cuisines.

Whenever something's low-fat I just add more fat!
