14 Mother’s Day Gifts For Foodie Moms That You’ll Probably Want For Yourself, Too

by Brittany Bennett

Sunday is a brunch day. How perfect is it then that Mother's Day falls on a Sunday. And this year brunch — I mean, Mother's Day — will grace the calendar on May 12. Show up to the table with foodie Mother's Day gifts that she'll love — and could potentially use right then and there.

If your mom is a foodie, hook her up with the hottest cookbook of the season or the trendiest salt and pepper shakers on the market. Flowers are nice, but they aren't a fish spatula. And nobody could understand the sentiment of a bouquet of utensils better than your foodie mother.

If mom accessorizes with aprons more than anything else, get her something that adds to her cooking arsenal like a hot sauce kit. On the other kitchen mitt, if mom stays away from the pots and the pans but partakes in food from an always-at-the-hottest-restaurant point, get her something like a cheese of the month club. That way she can know exactly how to order her DIY cheese board. However your mom consumes food culture, there's a gift for her that'll make her hungry for more time with you.
