Who’s harder to cross off your list? The person who literally has everything or a sake-loving foodie who knows the difference between Spanish and Italian olives?
We’ll take the foodie for $400, Alex (RIP)!
Luckily, like your favourite pair of elastic-waistband pants, we’ve got your back and, most importantly, are here to help with the age-old question: “What the hell am I gonna get Tasha for Christmas?”
In my opinion, you already know what to get Tash, your bestie, ya cousin, and Grandma Pearl. Or rather, you know exactly what not to get, which is an even better starting point for your holiday gift hunt.

When you’re shopping for the foodie in your life, it’s a constant battle between picking up something delicious and picking up something insanely useful, but this list’ll show you that it’s entirely possible to have both and have money left over to treat yourself. Win-win.
Now, a word about these Blackity Black-owned gifts. While we can’t co-sign on the quality of every single one because our credit cards DO have a limit, we suggest that you do these Black entrepreneurs a favour and buy from them expecting the best of the best because most of these products look real damn good!

With that being said, happy holidays yall! Let’s keep the Black dollar circulating in our community.
For best results, order online from these businesses by December 11.
