it really is unfortunate that - especially in this case - the content creators are great at their legacy content model, and terrible at getting it out there as a meaningful digital business.
I subscribed happily during and after college. CI is truly a beautiful magazine, with a mix of foundational information and rock solid recipes. It helped me learn to feed myself and know my way around produce beyond "lettuce" etc.
Haven't tried their website, so many of their recipes on my shelf, and so many pilfered on other sites as it is.
