My future father-in-law doesn’t think about food much at all, but has serious opinions about coffee and IPAs. So what do we talk about when we talk about dad-approved kitchen gear? Well, the category is pretty wide, which is why I talked to a bunch of colleagues, family members, and industry pros about which Prime Day deals their dads would be most excited about.
