Anyone else hate the new issue of Gourmet?
Maybe I'm one of the first to get it...it's the August issue with the blackberry cheesecake on the cover. Instead of putting all the recipes in with the appropriate articles and whatnot, they clumped all the recipes together at the end of a magazine for a little "cookbook". I haaaaaate it!
There is a certain appeal about reading an article and then looking at the recipes right away that accompany- it adds to the experience. This layout- with the recipes all at the back of the magazine has a sort of disconnect, and I really don't feel any inclination to even look at the magazine again, let alone make any of the recipes. One of my favorite sections, and the reason I subscribe to Gourmet is the Gourmet Every Day recipes, and those are also clumped into this little section with tiny thumbnail size photos- hardly inspiring, and again, off-putting to me.
Did I mention how much I hate this issue! I'll be sending my strong e-mail Gourmet's way. What were they thinking!?
