44th Anniversary Wedding Gift Ideas for the Couple

TruffleHunter Truffle Oil Selection Gift Set

Did you know that truffles can spice up your night? According to Stanford scientists, “In order to attract animals to them, truffles release chemical scents similar to pheromones produced by mammals. One of these chemicals, androstenone, is the main sex hormone produced by boars and can be found in their saliva. For this reason, truffle hunters often use female pigs to track down the elusive mushrooms. Androstenone can also be found in human sweat, leading some people to consider truffles to be aphrodisiacs.”

Thus, for the couple who is cute as a button and want to enjoy a real culinary treat, gift them with the TruffleHunter Truffle Oil Selection Gift Set!

“Endorphins are the body’s natural way of relieving pain by blocking the nerve’s ability to transmit pain signals. Additionally…dopamine [is] responsible for a sense of reward and pleasure, is also released. In essence, for some people eating large amounts of spicy food triggers a sense of euphoria similar to a ‘runner’s high’.”

FAQs – 44th Anniversary Gifts

What should I consider when buying an anniversary gift?

Whether buying for your husband or wife, it is important to consider the person’s likes or dislikes. This is the gourmet anniversary, but if your sweetheart hates to cook or maybe lacks the culinary skills to use a gift, then the item is not going to go over well. Thus, pick something that will bring enjoyment to this person. Better yet, looking for options that the two of you can use together can make the anniversary extra special.
