Food Network Magazine

Has this always been available? They sent me a letter indicating this
is a new publication and they want to recruit food professionals such
as myself. Looking at the secret address they used, they got my name
from "Food Arts" magazine, who "promises never to share my information
with third-parties". Food Arts was the only magazine that had that
exact snail mail address of mine.

Anyway - a years worth is $10. Cover price is supposedly $39.95/year,
but sorry - the math doesn't work on that. So already they're lying
to me. The other lie is that I am an avid Food Network Viewer. Which
I guess means I watched two hour's worth or less of FoodTV in the last
5 years.

I got the same mailing at work. I have a subscription to one food industry
publication (Gourmet retailer) and buy food , candy, and confectionary items
as part of my job.
My "special price" was $15.00/yr. :-/

That's not much worse than other food magazines... which are in the
$10-12 range now. If FN is an industry magazine, I guess they expect
you to write it off as a business expense.

You're right - It was Gourmet Retailer, not Food Arts. I'm a
"Specialty Food Wholesaler" under a fictitious business name only
known to Gourmet Retailer (and now Hispanic Food Retailer - I wish
they would shut up).

I wonder what demographics decided I pay $10 instead of $15. It must
be because I'm a Dumb, Cheap Texan. Or maybe it's my "Wholesaler
Discount".
