When most people think of gourmet foods, they think of the gourmet food baskets that sit on the shelves at Wal-Mart, but gourmet food is so much more than that. There are hundreds of kinds of gourmet food stores with many different types of food available. There are Russian, French, Cajun, country, and even Bar-B-Que stores. Many of them specialize in a specific kind of food. There are stores that only sell gourmet fruits, some sell only gourmet deserts, and there are even some that only sell gourmet steaks! Food is not the only thing you can buy at gourmet food stores. You can order a specialized gift basket for any occasion, bottles of wine, gourmet cookbooks, and various kitchen tools for you to practice gourmet cooking in your own home. Some of the larger stores also have items, mostly for tourists, such as T-shirts, caps, coasters, bags, mugs, magnets, and key-chains. Nearly everything you buy will come packaged in some type of traditional, unique, and reusable container.
