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) Butter & Cheese Savers - Set of 5
Set of five silicone food savers. Food Huggers create a tight seal by wrapping around your leftover stick butter and chunks of cheese. Stop struggling with aluminum foil or plastic wrap and slip on a reusable, dishwasher safe cover instead.

2) 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.

3) Breakfast Jar & Measuring Cup Lid Set
The Kilner® Breakfast Jar set offers a unique way to store and consume breakfast foods like overnight oats and cereals whether at home or on the go. Included in the set are two wide mouth jars, which come with a unique stainless steel lid that doubles as a measuring cup for better portion control. The set also includes a stainless-steel spoon, silicone spoon holder, and airtight sealing disc.

4) 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.

5) 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.
