"Eater's under-$25 holiday gift guide is, unabashedly, one of my favorites to curate during gift guide season - both as a shopping writer and a writer who lives, laughs, loves to shop. I live for the thrill of a thrifty find; that rush of finding the perfect gift that somehow comes in way under budget is a sensation I first experienced while thrifting with my mom as a kid, when I was taught to sniff out authentic English ironstone bowls like an Antiques Roadshow bloodhound."
"The best gifts under $25 for the true food freaks in your life (including yourself) should speak to their specific culinary obsessions, tastebuds, and cult-fave restaurants. Keep an eye out for those limited-edition holiday gifts that are going to sell out soon, and, when you see a potential present, ask yourself: does it inspire whimsy? Why should I settle for a toothpick dispenser that isn't shaped like a bird?"
Holiday gift options under $25 target food and drink enthusiasts and prioritize items that reflect recipients' culinary obsessions, tastebuds, and favorite restaurants. Limited-edition, whimsical, and cult-favorite products are recommended, with an emphasis on heritage and indie brands and on seizing items likely to sell out. Specific suggestions include a ready-to-sprinkle Spaghetti Dust blend of dried garlic, Calabrian chile flakes, parsley, and sea salt in gift-ready packaging, and cozy stoneware mugs that retain heat without burning hands. Suggestions range from White Elephant picks to presents meant to impress in-laws, with encouragement to choose playful, thoughtful designs.
