I wish the hosts would stop shoveling food.  Their oooing and ahhhing over everything is phony anyway.

Any food items I have purchased are really good but what I noticed is that there are certain items that the hosts don't sample much of and just take a small bite a few times.  That would tell me that the food is probably not that great so I won't order.  The ones that the hosts eat large bites and eat a good bit are probabably pretty good!!

There's no way I would order any food from QVC.  Most of it is way over priced.  I really haven't seen anything that looks overly good to me.  Plus, with temps over 100F, I doubt anything that requires refrigeration would arrive here safe to eat.

Lila, Ive ordered plenty of food from QVC. Overpriced?  yes most of it is, but there are some hits I've enjoyed like Germack, the Smashburgers by Chez Dean, the Croissants, steaks, potstickers by the Perfect Gourmet. There's been more than a few misses - the meatballs come to mind. Also years ago ordered a trail mix that was made in China (never mentioned in the presentation - booooo!). Since I refuse to eat Food from China due to lax regulations, I called QVC and they refunded my money. But since the food is packed in dry ice , I've never had an issue with contaminated food. Most of it is flash frozen so no worries of it going bad even if takes 1-2 days to ship.

I have ordered food from the Q over the years and to be honest haven't been impressed by most of it.  I feel the food is over priced and would never go by what the host states because the host is always going to love it!  They love every single item they sell whiich is not believable but  is their job as sales people.  

 

I live in an area where I can get any type of food or dessert from all different cultures .  I stopped ordering food from the Q long ago.  However, for those who are in areas or regions they can't get certain foods, the shows provide if you are willing to spend.
