American Spoon. Best products, non perishable (mostly). Those of you sending Zingerman’s are not doing your friends a favor. Have you ever tried to eat anything from the gift baskets? They are so so bad. Never mind the price, I wouldn’t even want one free.

My sister in law sent this after our baby was born and it was a pretty presentation but very overpriced. I think she paid like $100 to ship two containers of chicken soup and some rolls. And the soup was fine but not much better than what’s at the grocery store.

My go to gift is William Sonoma frozen croissants.
Never ever ship lox. It won’t go well for whoever eats that.
I get Zucker's shipped to me frequently and it is always good.

We get zingerman’s cinnamon buns every year from a friend and they are good but not amazing.
My mom likes the corned beef meal from Katz’s. The cake boss cakes held up perfectly. We got a lobster dinner via gold belly that was a fortune and it was good but slightly annoying bc some stuff came frozen, other stuff needed to be cooked. Couldn’t just enjoy.
I think non-perishables do better honestly. Fishers or Garrett popcorn. Vinebox is super fun. Pears from Harry and David. Or you can just Instacart something locally to your recipient. I door dashed my friend a pie from a local bakery.
I agree with this completely. So much so that I think we should be friends.

+1 for Zabars, though it does appear to more expensive and more kosher (obviously)... Zingermans has some nice cheese and meat stuff...

Shatilia Bakery baklava. Best baklava ever. And it ships well and keeps for a long time.

Agree. Going to the actual cafe is an experience. But the gift baskets are absolutely trash and taste terrible
