Random, but Luciano Pavarotti once said that “one of the very nicest things about life is the way we must regularly stop whatever it is we are doing and devote our attention to eating.” IFKYK. Eating, in general, is a necessity to life, but for foodies it’s an experience.

Foodie / ˈfo͞odē / a person with a particular interest in food; a gourmet.

The foodie culture is real. Foodies plan travel around meals, are hip to the best old and new restaurants, they’re down to try new things, and their taste buds span an extensive way. They’re passionate about the details of what they consume, whether they’re cooking it up themselves or researching who did and why.

We all know somebody like this. You may even be a foodie yourself. Whatever your position, I’m sure you’ll find the following gift guide for foodies useful as you prep for the holiday season and beyond. Thank me later!
