Introducing the Detroit Gift Box

The Detroit Gift Box is a nice little showcase of some of the more well-known (and tasty) products to come out of Detroit. It's something I have wanted to do for a while to show some solidarity with the much maligned city. Here is what you get:

• 2 snack bags of Detroit's famous Better Made Potato Chips
• One bottle of Vernors
• 10 oz. jar of Sanders delicious milk chocolate hot fudge topping
• One pound of Germack Pistachios
• 6 oz. bag of Caramel Popcorn from the Detroit Popcorn Company
• One 'Made in Detroit' sticker to show your Detroit pride
