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) 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.

2) Sidekick™ Mounted K-Cup Holder
The Sidekick™ Mounted K-Cup® Holder is a unique, space-saving dispenser for K-Cups and other coffee pods. The Sidekick is mounted with 3M® adhesive pads strong enough to stick securely to any surface such as coffee machines, cabinets, and refrigerators.

3) Butter Dish & Toast Tongs Set
This countertop butter dish neatly stores butter at room temperature, keeping it spreadable without sacrificing any of its fresh flavor. The flip-top lid blocks exposure to light and air, while a built-in knife rest keeps the included spreader off the counter. There’s even a hidden ridge to scrape the spreader (or a knife) clean on. Use the serrated grip tongs to grab toasted items or to push and pull your oven rack to avoid burning your fingers.

4) Collapsible Silicone Containers - 3 Cup Set
Zip Top: Collapsible Silicone Travel Cup Set - Peach

5) Glass & Silicone Food Storage Container
Heat, serve, freeze, and transport in these toxin-free, reusable containers that combine the best of glass and plastic storage containers. Shatter- and heat-resistant borosilicate glass is encased in a protective, multifunctional silicone sleeve. It forms an air cushion that helps protect the glass if you drop it. The dual seal lid forms an almost airtight lock over the glass and the sleeve. To help identify what’s inside, write on the silicone with a dry erase marker, then simply wash it off.
