Food and Wine is a Niche Service site founded in 1978 that’s based in Des Moines, Iowa. They earned an average Trust Score of 29% for 2 categories out of 15 we evaluated. Consequently, their product reviews are not trusted when it comes to reliability.

A portion of their categories feature mentions of the reviewer using the product plus category-specific test methods. However, some of their categories lack real world photos and most are missing quantitative test results. For their general content, they provide some foundational details like an About Us page, scoring system, and privacy policy, but also lack others like an ethics statement.
