QVC Should Offer More Ethnic Food

I've never understood why QVC doesn't offer up more Ethnic food.

 

It seems like it's the same foods all of the time.

 

I'd like to see a variety offered by African Americans and Latinos.  How about foods from various regions in the US.

 

My late husband and myself and daughters would travel across the US tasting quite a variety offered that pertained to that particular region.

 

Come on Q...let's see some changes......

That is a great suggestion, for instance Indian food like samosa or curry would be nice.

They certainly have Italian food covered:   meatballs - meatballs & meatballs.....

(tried 2 of the 3 = terrible)

Beware of summer ordering - food not arriving frozen and/or not even a plastic bag indicating dry ice was supplied.  Just read:  Omaha ships their meats - sides in a refrigerated truck from point of shipment to your location.  Local delivery service then delivers it.

Maybe better Italian food.

@Mz iMac  He'd happily dance right through your menu, as long as it was Chitlins and Hog Maws -vs- Brussels sprouts Woman Wink

As with most things they offer, one might assume they offer what they can sell the most of. Some ethnic foods would be best sellers, but most would be for more of a niche market, not something QVC has focused upon.

I'm sure QVC would if there was enough interest.  

 

I've never been one to experiment with food, so I definitely would not be a customer.  I'm American all the way, but American as I experienced it wasn't just hamburgers, steaks, French fries, and baked potates, it included English, German, Italian, Irish, and perhaps Polish. Actually, quite a bit of food we call American originated in Germany.

 

If I went to a foreign country other than Europe, I'd look for a McDonald's.

Yes, I agree.  Most people are not that adventurous when it comes to food.  I'm sure that QVC has done multiple surveys on what to peddle and they aren't going to promote something that will turn out to be a dud.

@Mz iMac  .......  My late husband would have applauded almost everything you listed ........ but  ..... you would have needed to add Pinto Beans and Cornbread with a side of Collared Greens and of course West Virginia Ramps.

 

Every time we went to Staunton, Virginia we had to go to Rowes Family Restaurant so he could get Hog Maw. This northern girl nearly choked to death when he explained to her what exactly he was eating.

 

And isn't David from Carolina. He should be familiar with that kind of food.
