Some of the craft stores sell table top size "shopping carts". They look exactly like the real thing only much smaller. You could put the groceries (depending on what you have) into the "shopping cart", shrink wrap and add a bow.

I prefer not to give "clutter" - so I cover a box (eg the bottom half of a shoebox) with inexpensive wrapping paper, put the food in and lay it on a large piece of cellophane. Bring the sides of the cellophane up, scrunch together with a large bow (salvaged off previous gifts, of course!)Most of my gifts are consumable these days unless I know that the recipient wants or needs a particular item.
