Hey there. I'm Joey, founder of Cuisinably.

Helping people spice up their lives is serious business to me — hence my outfit in this picture, even though I'm really not a suit-and-tie kind of guy. So how did this monthly spice subscription get started? Read on, and I'll explain.

A few years ago, fresh out of college, I was juggling long work hours, bills, and the same boring meals every week—chicken, pasta, rice, frozen stuff, and all the other usual suspects. I wanted to try cooking more exciting meals, but I didn’t have the time or energy to hunt down new ingredients. Takeout was expensive, and meal kits weren’t any better.

Then one night, while making my usual chicken, I accidentally grabbed cumin instead of garlic salt. Cumin definitely isn't a unique spice, but I’d never really cooked, and that one small switch made the meal taste completely new. It reminded me of something a chef once told me back when I worked in a restaurant: “Spices are the secret weapon of cooking.”

I got to thinking about the hundreds of spices used in cuisines all around the world, suddenly I had developed the idea for Cuisinably — a spice of the month club designed to help people easily cook with international flavors, without needing a culinary degree or a specialty grocery store. No commitment to big spice jars, no ingredient overhauls, just small, curated blends that work with what you’re already making.

At first, I shared Cuisinably with friends and family. They loved it. Now, with nearly a perfect 5-star rating, I’m proud to say it’s helping hundreds of people rediscover the fun of home cooking.

With our spice subscription box, you get three expertly selected spices each month —plus simple ideas for how to use them in your go-to meals. It’s the easiest way to explore global flavors without spending a fortune. And it’s affordable, too: skipping just one takeout order covers your whole month of spices.

So that’s the story. And if you’re even a little curious, why not try it free for a month? If it’s not your thing, you can cancel easily — no charge, no questions asked. But if you love it (and I think you will), it’s just $4.99/month after that.

So, what are you waiting for?

Cheers,
Joey
