Regular readers will know that we’re very fond of subscription based services,  and so we were interested to see a  new service, Spice Madam, which offers curated  Spiceboxes together with recipes and fact sheets to enable cooking without  the hassle of going to a specialist food shop.

For $20 subscribers receive a spice box containing three or four spice samples which are inspired by different culinary cultures each month.

So what other food niches are there which would lend themselves to a subscription based service?
