I guess I'll be getting Bon Appetit in its stead but I think I may add Cooks Illustrated now. Gourmet is also the only magazine I subscribed to.

I think because I didn't have to pretend to read the 18th story on the hottest Paris neighborhood. it was all recipes. i just cant believe they couldn't even finish out the year. who kills a mag with the november issue? ugh. i'm pisted. this really saddens me. for all the snotty ass expensive shit and luxe lifestyle that gourmet promoted, they provided inventive, trendy and stimulating recipes.

It was the only magazine I subscribed to. What is the deal, though? We've lost the best food mag we've ever had and all people can do is beef about their $15 subscription? I'll miss Gourmet.

But then she admitted that she goes to the web for recipes and inspiration now. Anyway, we mourned the end of an era.

Stay tuned! We'll let you know what we hear. @ Nick/lorac: My guess is that Conde Nast will probably start sending you Bon Appetit instead – but they haven’t said yet. Stay tuned!

I even use Martha Stewart Every Day Food more than those for weekday meals – so good! I rarely buy all of those magazines. Publications also needed to get into the online game more, especially robust, beautifully designed online password-protected content for subscribers. You raise very good points, I agree.
