i found this cooks illustrated at the doctors office. i couldnt find a publication date but I think its from 2005. There was a review of the new pepper grinder you can buy with the pepper pre loaded- they were impressed by the convenience but not by how it could only ground peppercorns to one consistency.
Simply the best publication ever ever ever for the lovers of everything gross and sexy and porous and sweaty and hot and funny
Unfortunately comes out whenever they put an issue together last one was more than 3 years ago :~( but its The absolute best chef kiss
a music magazine from the 2000s. from the same people who brought you Maxim. a lot of really respectable critics and journalists wrote for it, including Jonah from BBSP and Caryn Ganz from NYT. got a three pack for $40.
