Spending on food is perhaps the biggest expense for any family. However, there are foods that cost a fortune to try. It's no surprise that caviar and white truffle are among the top most expensive foods in the world, but this list includes melon, watermelon, and even pizza.
Instructions
Step 1
White truffle alba
It is a well-known fact that truffles are the most expensive mushrooms in the world. But the white truffle that grows in the vicinity of the Italian town of Alba beats all records in value. The price for 1 kg of white truffles ranges from 800 to 100 dollars. Moreover, the largest copies are sold exclusively at auctions. It is known that a white truffle weighing 1.51 kg was bought by a couple from Hong Kong for 160,000 dollars.
Step 2
Caviar "Almas"
This caviar is an extremely rare food product produced in Iran. The only store that sells this delicacy is "Caviar House & Prunier" located in Piccadilly Circus in London. The albino beluga caviar is packaged in 24-carat gold jars. The price for 1 kilogram is $ 25,000.
Step 3
Yubari royal melons
No, these are not the usual melons found in any supermarket. Their orange pulp, unusually sweet and tasty, is so in demand among the owners of fashionable restaurants that melons are sold at auctions and many are ready to pay a round sum for them. The highest bid for these fruits was $ 23,000.
Step 4
Densuke black watermelon
Black watermelons grow only on the island of Hokkaido in Japan. The harvest, as a rule, is several dozen fruits, hence such a high cost. It is known that at one of the auctions they paid $ 6100 for several watermelons.
Step 5
Pizza "Royal 007"
Domenico Krolla is a Scottish chef known for his original pizzas. His pizza is "Royale 007", in honor of James Bond. It was a pie stuffed with lobster marinated in cognac, caviar dipped in champagne, Scottish smoked salmon, prosciutto, venison medallions. All this is seasoned with excellent tomato sauce and balsamic vinegar according to an old recipe. To top it off, the pizza is topped with 24 carat edible gold flakes.
