Flavors of Entanglement received generally positive reviews from music critics, praising the new style of Morissette's album; however, critics felt the album was not as original as Morissette's earlier albums Jagged Little Pill and Under Rug Swept. Charting success of the album was also moderate worldwide. The album peaked at number eight on the US Billboard 200. The album also spawned an American tour called Flavors of Entanglement Tour, which spanned September to November 2008.

Morissette left Maverick Records in 2009, following completion of all promotional activities in support of the album.
