10 Unique Gift Ideas For Foodies

December 9, 2014

Before I became vegan, food and cooking were very low on my list of interests. Now as a vegan, I love to spend hours experimenting in the kitchen and trying new vegan restaurants when I’m traveling. It’s such an exciting time for vegans; new products are emerging so quickly that it is often hard to keep up with all the innovation. If you’ll be shopping for a foodie this holiday season, here are some ideas that will add some fun to their culinary routine (hint hint, Mom).

1. DIY Grow Your Own Shiitake Mushroom Log
