Webp 7edited

There’s nothing worse than trying to find a gift for someone and not knowing what to get them.

To take the guesswork out of gift buying, we’ve found practical and helpful gifts for any occasion, sorted by theme to help find everything you are looking for.

Top 5 “Food Preservation” Gifts

1) Silicone Snack Bags
This reusable silicone bag cuts down on waste by replacing throwaway plastic baggies. Each is completely plastic-free, and seals up to keep food fresh. Eco-friendly, too, the bag is lunch box-ready, and can go from the pantry into the freezer, microwave, or dishwasher without worry. Is there anything this mighty bag can’t do? Well, it won’t break down like plastic does—or get tossed away.

2) Eco-Friendly Sandwich Wrap

3) Multi-Use Food Tongs
This one-handed tool allows you to whisk, grab, and serve with ease. Turn over any shape of food, remove it from boiling water or hot oil, or plate your final dish. Folds flat and locks for easy storage.

4) Adjustable Storage Container Pro
The airtight food storage container from Botto adjusts to take up just as much space as it needs, maximizing your cabinet and pantry storage and maintaining the freshness of dry foods. Coffee, tea, herbs, dried fruit and more will last longer thanks to the patented, one-way air valve and UV-blocking design. As you press down and customize the size, excess air comes out—and stays out—with one satisfying swoosh. Made with BPA- and phthalate-free, FDA-grade, food-safe materials.

5) Bread Wrap
Use the warmth of your hands to mold the Bee's Wrap around bread or around the top of a large bowl or dish. The antibacterial properties of the beeswax and jojoba oil help to keep food fresh.
