About Us

From local chefs making their culinary mark both near and far, to the distinctive restaurants this state has to offer, Mississippi's hospitality radiates through in the pages of this magazine.

This magazine was launched in December 2011 when J.J. Carney, Associate Editor of the Lawrence County Press, decided to combine her publishing expertise with her love of food and cooking. She foraged the state to bring you the best Mississippi has to offer in terms of food, talent and local businesses. In 2020, eat. drink. MISSISSIPPI was purchased by Florida-based Connected Community Media Group and welcomed managing editor (and Jackson, Miss. local) Michele Baker, where she continued the tradition of sharing the love, passion and magic unique to Mississippi. eat. drink. MISSISSIPPI.
As of March, 2024, the magazine is published by Arkadash, LLC, a Mississippi company based in Jackson.
