I get it.
Mouser, it only runs between $25-$30/year with the subscription. Considering all the cookbooks you'd have to buy to accumulate the recipes you get in just one issue, it's a steal.

If it were just me making the decision, I'd get it in a heartbeat, but there are other priorities...
Like my mortgage.
And other options...
Like the library.

I think you guys are letting am important question slip by. With the name Cooks Illustrated do they have a swimsuit issue?

Not to my knowledge.

I get sample copies of it in the mail ever once in awhile as a promo to prompt me to subscribe. It's really nice but I've not really been bitten by the need to subscribe to it.

So is there a periodical out there in regards to food that you would subscribe?

Veggie Life is awesome! So is the Vegetarian Times, even for people who are not vegetarians. Or for people like me who aren't very good ones. :D

We had a subscription and also bought one of their hardcover cookbooks. They have some good tips in them.

I have a subscription to Taste of Home magazine. Previously we had Quick Cooking but it's run by the same people and they shuffle their lineup once in awhile.
I've gotten some good recipes from them, plus I'm registered on their website so I can find some interesting stuff once in awhile.

"Cucina Italiana" is the only cooking magazine I ever buy, although I peruse any number of their web-sites.
Eh. My mother's got a bunch of cookbooks from that magazine. The books are from the 70s though.
