Word Of Mouth
 

Today is the last issue of Word of Mouth

But fear not, from next week the newsletter will be getting a new look – and a new name, Feast.

It will still feature all the best recipes and restaurant reviews from the Guardian, but now you'll also get exclusive insights from star food writers, including Yotam Ottolenghi, Ravinder Bhogal, Felicity Cloake and Rachel Roddy.

Thank you for subscribing, and we hope you enjoy the new look.

… there is a good reason why NOT to support the Guardian

Not everyone can afford to pay for news right now. That is why we keep our journalism open for everyone to read. If this is you, please continue to read for free.

But if you are able to, then there are THREE good reasons to support us today.

1

Our quality, investigative journalism is a scrutinising force at a time when the rich and powerful are getting away with more and more

2

We are independent and have no billionaire owner pulling the strings, so your money directly powers our reporting

3

It doesn’t cost much, and takes less time than it took to read this message

Help power the Guardian’s journalism for the years to come, whether with a small sum or a larger one. If you can, please support us on a monthly basis from just £2. It takes less than a minute to set up, and you can rest assured that you're making a big impact every single month in support of open, independent journalism. Thank you.
