I have a lot of foodies among my family and friends, and with the holidays coming up I'm looking for some suggestions on unique and cool cooking gifts I can give.

>> No.15072493

a toilet

>> No.15072499

If they're not just foodies and they actually cook, don't bother. You'll almost never find something they haven't bought or considered for themselves already, so you're just going to end up with disappointment.

"Cool gifts" you mean funny looking gimmicks that might be fun to use for a day or two and then stored to never be used again? That rollie shit you posted is awful, the eggs are overcooked garbage. Buy them actually useful valuable items like Le Creuset pans/pots, a Yeti cooler, maybe some rare and/or unique sauces like Truffle hot sauce. It varies a lot by the person but don't buy them cheap gimmicky shit

Bitch please. You can buy other "superior" cheaper products but they're expensive for a reason. Great customer support, long warranties, excellent build quality. I used to be like you but when I actually had enough money to buy a Yeti cooler I was absolutely stunned with the quality and I've never had to buy another one ever again.

Freezer space is at a premium unfortunately. I think I will have a go at that in the summer though. I dont actually like ice cream that much. I enjoy making it more than eating it.

Those microwaves may seem like a gimmick but a microwave that knows how to cycle different power levels depending on food type and air moisture is based as fuck. The reason a lot of microwave foods suck is because retards just put a timer on food at high power. Figuring it all out yourself is a pain though.

Decent oils and vinegars are a good gift for people who cook. They're always useful, and they're often a little pricier than people will tend to spend on themselves in the ordinary course of events.

Steer away from flavor infused oils, though. They tend to be a bit gimmicky.
