the Foodie

Getting your favorite foodie a fabulous gift may at first seem fairly simple. Sure, foodies love to feast, but they can be surprisingly finicky, too, and really just want what they want (after they take a picture of it ). A taco rack would be one fire foodie gift, because what’s more foodie than a taco (or four)? Whether it be the traditional street variety or some sort of crazy fusion taco, the rack will help present them well—and make for a great photo op. Or get them a gift certificate to Cheese Shop 831, where they can nerd out on all things cheese and get some personal favorites and/ or a housemade grilled cheese, a classically nostalgic and on-brand foodie favorite. Another idea is some ready-to-grill marinated chicken or beef, with multiple flavor profiles to choose from, and which can be cooked when, where and how your favorite foodie prefers. AS
