I like to send something pretty but something that will be enjoyed. I found small cardboard boxes on Amazon that I will stack and give a nice water bottle and tie it up. What is something small I can put in the boxes that will be enjoyed?

Black Gift Candy Box with Gold Dots Bulk 2x2x2 inches with Ribbon Party Favor Box, Gold Dots,Pack of 50 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07R.....83WH9

Something that can fit into these boxes

Wrapped store bought stuff. I love salad and real food but most mm salads we get will end up not being eaten simply because they've been out for too long.

It’s really the thought I appreciate it. We eat really healthy and 99% of what we get we get rid of. Of course an amazing container that we can keep and reuse is always nice... be it a basket, a box, a mug, a tray, etc.

A sealed box of Le Chocolat chocolate with a bottle of wine or liquor.

No one throws that out.

Store bought salad is always a winner. Wrapped food is also appreciated

Does anyone really like the dumb cheap containers and garbage lucite divided trays and "fancy" paper bags that rip, that are sold in the Purim stores that you cant walk into because theyre so crowded before Purim with women deciding for hours on color and shape, even though these stores sell nothing of value, that people spend so much money on (99% of which ends up in the trash within 24 hours)?

They are pretty small. It describes like 5 Jordan almonds or 1/2 cup m&ms.
So maybe a few wrapped dairy taffies or caramels or mini chocolates or truffles.

Mini muffin, choc covered Oreo done with fancy mold design, mini choc chip or melt in mouth cookies, baby red apples, diced/cut up fruit in mason jar and off course everyone’s favorite chocolate.

As little as possible. When I get one or two MM package, I appreciate it. When the whole city brings me packages, I get overwhelmed.

One package of something healthy (like vegetables, or fruits, challahs, and the odd baked good) is great for the day. If I have a lot, it lasts a long time, and that is pretty stressful.

Also, I don't want fancy packaging. I would like either paper/ cardboard which is easy to compost or recycle. Plastic does not easily recycle.

It is 100% assur to throw a usable item in the trash.

Then you become a hoarder and your house a dump.

You don't have to keep it, you just can't throw it in the trash.

Personally I enjoy wrapped store bought goodies most. I enjoy homemade baked goods too but only from people I know well and trust.
Honestly my mm that gets the most positive feedback is a nicely presented salad. I actually usually get a number of that yous later on from people telling me that was the only nourishing thing they ate all purim day. So it's becoming a yearly tradition. Takes the headache off mm planning for me and people come to count on it
