 Horrible ServiceJan 14, 2010
I personally like the magazine, however be weary of purchasing the magazine; their customer service is horrible! I decided to cancel my service, I was told it would take several months to do so and now that it is in the process of being credited: they are only crediting some of the price!
 some changes better, some not as goodJan 08, 2010
I have subscribed to 'Everyday' for two years, and I don't think I will renew for a third. The main reason was that, while extracting my favorite pages of back issues to create a recipe binder, I realized how much of the magazine's content is full-page ads. Serious cooks will not likely be interested in Rachael's Faves, which shows clothing accessories and non-food gift suggestions. The travel section in each issue offers interesting suggestions for accomodations, dining, shopping, and hangouts in the profiled destination. Rachael Ray does try to appeal to readers of many ages, but her many catch phrases and 'Rachaelisms' are tired! 'EVOO' and 'stoup' were clever for about a month, and I have to shrug and roll my eyes at any adult foodie who uses words like 'yummy' and 'sammie' in a written recommendation. Lighten up, you say? Her readers aren't kindergarteners. I'm glad she's proud of her Italian heritage, but she doesn't need to declare it more than once in each issue. For the most part, I like her recipes. They are unpretentious, substantial, and ethnically diverse enough for me. They don't require two dozen ingredients, and they fit into the hectic schedules of most Americans. The photography makes me hungry. Burger of the Month is a great feature, and so is the special recipe for a dog treat. The magazine has undergone some changes in the last several months. Good change: they scrapped B, L, D. A celebrity's spartan daily menu plan doesn't belong in a magazine crammed with high-carb food. The weekly menu planner has also been changed so that all ingredients in the shopping list end up being thoroughly used. Bad change: The entertaining guide in each issue used to feature two great ideas for themed get-togethers, complete with a menu and ideas for ambience and playlists. Now that section just features many quick random tips and reminds me of the how-to-do-anything-better guide in Glamour. I wish $10-Spot would be scrapped altogether, as it seems to annoy so many readers! I understand the purpose of precise cost calculation per serving, but most of us will not go through a whole jar of chiles or chutney before its expiration date. The main thing I dislike, though, is that so much space is wasted by ads. I'll subscribe to a more costly magazine that doesn't have as many; the extra cost would probably be worth it. Time to research...

Bland Boring FoodDec 28, 2009
My husband and I got a subscription for this magazine in an attempt to broaden our weekday meal repertoire, and we were sadly disappointed. The food is very bland with a lot of the recipes consisting of sausage and eggs. Most of the recipes just had salt and pepper as their main spice. When we live in such multicultural society, I would expect that it would be reflected in the recipes. Her fried rice (the only Asian-inspired food) did not even contain soy sauce or oyster sauce, and the only other ethnically inspired food represented in this magazine was Americanized Mexican. We tried the weekly menu planner and by day four, both my husband and I were craving something with taste. I would recommend the Gourmet today cookbook over getting a subscription to this magazine.

 Cheaper to Order with the Magazine InsertSep 29, 2009
Love the magazine. But go to a book store and take out one of the inserts to order. It is $12 for a one year subscription.
