December 4, 2008 at 9:01 AM by Cafe Kim - Comments (0)
We've already given you gift ideas for the Gourmet Gourmand, the Kitchen Phobic, and the Martha Wanna-Be. Next on our holiday list is the Eco-Friendly Foodie.
Just what do you get for the person who likes to be environmentally responsible in the kitchen?
Product: Totally Bamboo Congo Parquet End Grain Cutting Board
Cost: $39.99
Where to Buy: Amazon.com
Why I Love It: Bamboo is one of the trendiest green materials these days because it's fast-growing, reusable, and environmentally friendly. Recommended by America's Test Kitchen, this stylish parquet-patterned board won't crack, peel, absorb water, or dull knives.
Extras: Throw in a bottle of oil (such as Snow River Wood Oil, $6.99) to preserve and protect wood.
Product: Glass Storage Dishes From Greenfeet
Cost: $11.95-$19.95
Where to Buy: Greenfeet.com
Why I Love It: What's out this season? Storing food in disposable food containers. What's in? Replacing those plastic containers with these durable, vintage-inspired glass containers that last forever. Plus, glass has been proven to be safter than plastic for storing and reheating foods.
Extras: Available in small, medium, and large sizes.
Product: Endangered Species Chocolate
Cost: $5.25-$50
Where to Buy: Endangered Species Chocolate (order through the site or us it to search for location closest to you).
Why I Love It: This high quality chocolate is not only 100 percent ethically traded but 10 percent of its net profits are donated to help species, habitat, and humanity. Choose from a variety of holiday gifts for any budget including a selection of chocolate bars, chocolate of the month club, or giraffe tote bag with chocolate bars.
Extras: Dark Chocolate with Cranberries and Almonds is my all-time-favorite flavor.
