20edited

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) Guacamole Preservation Container
Usually guac won’t last more than a day without browning. But this guacamole container creates an airtight seal that keeps oxygen out, so it stays green and fresh for days. (It’s great for hummus, salsa, and tzatziki, too.) Push the the container’s base to remove the air, which raises the guac to the top. The push feature comes in handy as you start enjoying the dip—give a press and it lifts the contents to the top and avoids the need to scrape dip off the sides.

2) Reusable Beeswax Food Wrap
Sustainable, sophisticated, and fun, reusable beeswax wraps protect your food and the environment. Handcrafted in Massachusetts, these plastic alternatives are beautiful cotton fabrics layered with organic beeswax, jojoba oil, and tree resin. Lasting for at least 100 washes, they can also be used as a lid cover for leftovers or folded into a pouch for snacks.

3) Set of 3 Sizes
Use the warmth of your hands to mold the Bee's Wrap around bread, cheese, vegetables, or cover a bowl. The antibacterial properties of the beeswax and jojoba oil help to keep food fresh.

4) Homemade Sauce & Mayonnaise Maker
Making homemade mayonnaise couldn’t be easier with the Kilner® Mayonnaise and Sauce Jar set. It only takes about three to four minutes to make fresh mayonnaise that's ready to serve. You can also make aioli, salad dressing, and other sauces using this handy kitchen gadget. The set also includes a two-piece sealing lid to store your homemade creations.

5) Reusable Cotton Produce Bags - 4-Pack
Reusable organic cotton produce bags are simple, plastic-free alternatives to disposable plastic bags. Ideal for carrying your veggies and bulk foods, they’re also great for straining rice and nut milks. By keeping food fresher longer than traditional plastic, they’re an equally responsible and rewarding option.
