Summary: puzzled
Comment: I have always enjoyed bon appitit magazine and couldn't resist the special price. It is a great magazine with lots of down-to-earth recipes and interesting information. However, I am somewhat perplexed that, 2 issues into my 1 year subscription, I got a notice saying that I have one issue remaining on my subscription.

Summary: The best of the bunch
Comment: Hooray for food porn! Bon Appetit is stuffed with tons of great glossy photos of attractive dishes... a foodie's dream come true!

I've had a subscription to Bon Appetit for about 4 years now, and it is my favorite of all the cooking magazines out there. It is not too high-end or snobby and for the most part you will be able to find the recipe ingredients at your local supermarket. The recipes are generally not too complicated so an amature cook can create a classy meal to impress guests, or just try new things in the kitchen for fun.

My one complaint would be it seems that the issues are beginning to contain slightly fewer recipes than before and it sometimes feels like their target audience is more of a priveledged high-class lifestyle than an everyday home cook.

That said, considering all of the competitors, I think Bon Appetit is the middle ground and I would recommend it to all aspiring home cooks.

Summary: Make a lady happy with a subscription
Comment: Amazon sometimes makes it hard to say "no" to spending money. I really wasn't interested in a magazine subscription, but I knew someone who I suspected would love a subscription to a cooking magazine. And by golly I was right. My sister-in-law is head over heels after only the first issue of bon appetit magazine. And yes I had ulterior motives. She is a fine cook and I knew I would get a meal or two out of the deal.

Summary: Fast service, luscious food photos.
Comment: Not only does bon appétit have some of the best food photos around, the overall coverage of foodie info is great. I love the clean simple design of the front cover, which has always pulled me in every month. The magazine also covers a range of foods I wouldn't normally look into. It helps me think of and plan great meals while keeping me in the know about all sorts of products and food services.

I'd also like to say that I ordered this magazine on July 5th and my first issue came today, July 17th. AMAZING.

Summary: Bon appetit
Comment: A fancy food magazine. Interesting articles but odd recipes. It would be nice for those looking to really expand their cooking tastes but I found it not so useful for my kitchen.
