6 Best Food Gifts at World

If you’re looking for food gifts, you may be tempted to just go to your local grocery store and call it a day. You have to go there anyway to stock up on egg nog, Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes, and Extra Strength Tylenol (it’ll come in handy, trust us). But if you’re shopping for people you actually care to impress and you want to seek out the best food gifts, World Market is the place to go. Meeting your other half’s family for the first time? Need something for that one boss who doesn’t micromanage you (bless them)? Still sucking up to that friend whose birthday you forgot last summer? Then you need to stop into World Market. These are the best food gifts we spotted on shelves at World Market during a recent visit.

World Market S’mores Milk Chocolate Bark Tin: Homemade food gifts can be a touchy subject. I don’t personally have a problem with them, but I can understand the hesitation. Between pet hair in the air and counters that haven’t been washed in who knows how long, you never know what someone is doing behind closed doors! World Market gives a little peace of mind in the form of a tin of peppermint bark with a homemade touch, minus the cat hair.
Beers of the World 9-Pack: World Market may be stretching their definition of “the world” a bit here. Nine beers from around the world is hardly scratching the surface, but it’s a start! This is the ideal food gift for the adventurous drinker in your life. Give them a few beers to sip on to hopefully spark inspiration for their next vacation.
Crave Japan Mystery Drinks and Snacks Crate: These mystery snack crates are made for gifting. Christmas presents are already a surprise for the person getting them—now they can be a surprise for the giver, too! Plus, the recipient can’t be mad at you if the snacks don’t align with their tastes—you’re just the mystery messenger, man. And who knows, maybe they’ll find a life changing snack that’ll have them rushing back to World Market for more (and they can pick up a little something for you while they’re at it).
La Fusilleria di Gragnano Hand Wrapped Spaghetti: I’m taking inspiration from Mythical Chef Josh on this one: “We all gotta eat and we’re all gonna die!” That is to say, a honkin’ bundle of spaghetti from World Market may not be the most glamorous gift but it satisfies a need we all have: to eat! It can be hard to find the right gift for someone in your life, so sometimes the solution is just really, really nice pasta and an equally fancy sauce to go with it.
Culinary Passport Hot Sauce Collection Gift Set 10 Pack: Hot sauce is the gift that keeps on giving! Going in and going out, that is. Okay, too far? Well, either way a ten-pack of hot sauces is a gift that’ll take time to get through. And the number one priority of any food gift giver is something that’ll serve as a slow burn, so your giftee is reminded of your love and thoughtfulness for as long as possible. It’s only fitting that this set has a global World Market twist—nice!
Hakutsuru Premium Saike Collection: Some of the best gifts are ones you can rip right into: an RC car with accompanying batteries to power it, a warm pajama set when the heat hasn’t kicked in, and, naturally, a gift set of three bottles of sake to help you get through any family Christmas bickering. This set from World Market comes with three intensities of sake—light, well-balanced, and full bodied—which makes it a foolproof gift for any novice. Help them get that holiday buzz going ASAP!
