That is all.

What? You can't imagine making homemade bread? You can't imagine giving it away to people? You can't imagine giving food gifts? You can't imagine actual bread? NP

It’s the “yuck” lady.

Yeah, and she's "yuck"ing everything but wants to go around giving people a yogurt starter...

It totally made me laugh out loud. I was super happy with the oil and vinegar options, and then lol!!! How gross. What does that look like? How do you package it for people? Has anyone ever used it?

I know who you are PP. I have a sister who would answer just as you have.
I also observe how her community and "friends" smile politely at her but how they see who she really is.

Lol, I thought it was my sister. With the "that is all" nonsense.

Velatis candy.

I personally would love a gift certificate to Neopol Smokery or Ivy City Smokehouse — or an actual package from Seabear Smokehouse — for hot smoked salmon.

I would throw out a yogurt starter. I'm not a stay at home farm wife. You need to know your audience for that kind of gift.

+1, and I do not want your "good" olive oil. I have specific brands I prefer not some rosemary infused gift bottle.

I sent lox once and the person got sick from it. We agreed lox shouldn’t be shipped.

I have lox sent from Zucker's in New York all the time and no one has ever gotten sick - and everyone is very happy to eat the lox.

That would get thrown right out.

Are you the "cat on the counter" poster or are there more than one of you? Tell me if you are an immigrant and from where.

Panettone from Olivieri 1882.

People always recommend Zingerman’s but I do not get the love for them.

Thanks for the panettone suggestion. I just ordered one as a gift

Me either. Poster sounds unhinged and jealous of her sister.

I’m just confused. You know what you can use as a yogurt starter? Virtually any plain yogurt from any grocery store. By contrast, a mature sourdough starter is a great gift for bakers just starting out with bread.
