Holiday Gift Samples

Yuletide treats for the tummy worth sampling

Back when the family vehicle was powered by a horse instead of an engine, food was a regular gift item over the holiday season. Fortunately, giving food remains in style, namely because they always seem to taste better this time of year and those who receive these goodies are more than willing to share. With that in mind, T8N has compiles a short list of edible gift options for those craving something more delectable under the tree.
