Eat your heart out! 36 Valentine's Day food delivery gifts, starting at just $3

Boring old chocolate and cheap wine are nowhere to be found on this list.

Too often, Valentine’s Day is marked with mediocre boxes of chocolate and cheap, convenient wine that’s bought in haste at the grocery store on the way to your date night at home. Though we do appreciate the thoughtfulness of at least buying something, we would rather you leave those last-minute boxes of chocolate and wine on the shelves in favor of something a little more flavorful.

That's why we've rounded up some great gift options that will get you (and your loved one) out of the same grocery store present rut. From make-it-yourself food delivery kits or family dinner, to both sweet and savory snacks, and yes even some great wine, we have exactly what you should give this Valentine’s Day to the significant other who loves food that'll arrive in the nick of time.
