The Taste of Home subscription box is best suited for someone who is a novice in the kitchen and needs some help growing their inventory of tools and cookbooks. I bought it on the strength of their website, which promised, “From bold spices to handy kitchen items, enjoy popular new products that bring flavor & fun to your cooking.”
I like to try different spice blends, marinades, etc. so the “bold spices” were the draw for me. In reality, this box does not have food items in them. It’s a quarterly box of tools and a new cookbook.
The cookbooks are solid, filled with beautiful, color photos, and have recipes that your average home cook can actually accomplish.
As with any subscription box, the usefulness of the items is hit or miss. Some of them were genuinely fun and useful. Others were just throwaway products that immediately got donated. (Examples: a cheap red knife [red?!], an over-engineered garlic press [green?!], two small silver spoons) There are some popular brand names (KitchenAid, Joseph Joseph) in the boxes, along with others I hadn’t heard of before.
Generally speaking, the quality of the items was decent but it just wasn’t worth the price in the end.
I have not received my box and am wondering if it shipped yet or not
My last box did not have everything in it as stated. Was surprised. I am wondering if I should stop my orders.
Hi I am wanting to know if my august and September boxes have been mailed. You had taken a total of 55.41 out for two boxes august and September. They were taken off my account in Sept 7. Still have not received them thank you
