The final word on Gourmet's sad demise: this article in Brown University's Post- magazine by our fashionable former intern, Marshall Katheder.


Perhaps rapper Biggie Smalls said it best when he emceed, “It was all a dream, I used to read Gourmet magazine, Salt n’ Pepa and Heavy D up in the limousine.” Since its founding in 1941 and before its untimely demise last week, Gourmet was an inspiration to people of many walks of life: domestic shut-ins, patients waiting at the podiatrist’s office, food fanatics and people with way too much thyme on their hands.



Ah, impetuous youth! MK, we miss your unpaid labor; we miss your puns; but most of all we miss your mint-green polyester leisure suit.
