Christopher Kimball’s Milk Street
Christopher Kimball’s Milk Street, located on Milk Street in Boston, Massachusetts, was created in 2016. Boston Common Press (the parent company of America’s Test Kitchen and Cook’s Illustrated) sued Kimball in Suffolk Superior Court on October 31, 2016, claiming that Kimball “literally and conceptually ripped off” his former employer. According to the lawsuit, Kimball built his new venture while still on their payroll, using company resources such as recipes and databases to help shape Milk Street Kitchen into a direct competitor. In August of this year, the lawsuit was settled. He was also sued by his ex-wife Adrienne, who claimed that his departure from Cook’s Illustrated devalued the company and harmed his payments to her.
Christopher Kimball America’s Test Kitchen
Kimball was a co-founder, editor, and publisher of America’s Test Kitchen, which produces television and radio shows and publishes magazines such as Cook’s Illustrated, which he founded in 1993. Cook’s Country magazine, which debuted in 2004, is also published by the company. The company’s revenue is generated by its readers rather than advertisers, which distinguishes it from competitors.
Two Pigs Farm is its cookbook publishing division. Kimball’s publishing activities were owned by Boston Common Press, a private partnership formed by Kimball, Eliot Wadsworth II, and George P. Denny III. Kimball also hosted the public television cooking shows America’s Test Kitchen and Cook’s Country from America’s Test Kitchen, which were both syndicated. Kimball’s departure was announced in a news release issued by Boston Common Press, the parent company of Cooks Country/Cooks Illustrated/Test America’s Kitchen. The 2016 TV shows had already been filmed, and Kimball served as host, but his direct involvement with the company ended immediately. He remained a minority stockholder until 2019 when he sold his shares as part of a lawsuit settlement.
