Even if you are not a gourmet, you will be interested to know that there are products that cost more than your apartment.

We present you the top most expensive food products. Their price is several thousand dollars, but the taste is not always distinguished by something exceptional. High price - due to small and rare production.

Such products cannot be found in stores. But you can order individually.

1. Marble beef

 

About $250 for a steak. This is the most expensive beef of all types of meat. It is obtained from Japanese Wagyu cows.

 

Animals are kept in royal conditions - they get massages, they are fed with the best grass, they are given beer to drink and even classical music is turned on. Thanks to this care, the meat becomes very tender.

2. Bluefin tuna

 

About 8,000 dollars per 1 kilogram. Bluefin tuna is one of the fastest fish on the planet. But sometimes she manages to catch. This is the reason for its high cost.

3. Densuke Black Watermelon

 

Up to $6,000 each. The color of such a watermelon is dark green and without stripes, as we are used to seeing. Yes, and the taste is much sweeter.

This is the rarest type of watermelon. It grows only in Japan. The high price is due to the fact that the harvest of such watermelons is very small, and they grow only in one place on the planet, on the island of Hokkaido.

4. Japanese royal melon

 

About $12,000 each. This cost is explained by the fact that melons are grown in the Yubari region, in volcanic ash. Such a melon is very sweet and has perfectly round shapes with a smooth mesh pattern. This melon was derived from two different varieties - the American Spicy and the English Earl's Favorite.

5. White truffle

 

Up to $32,000 per kilogram. This truffle is also known as Piedmont or Alba. It grows in northern Italy, France and Croatia. It is harvested from October to December. These elite mushrooms are harvested underground but are very difficult to spot. Dogs are trained for this purpose. The taste of white truffle is nutty and earthy, slightly reminiscent of garlic. This all explains their high cost.

6. Diamond caviar

 

Up to $25,000 per kilo. This is the caviar of a very rare fish - albino beluga. Caviar color - from gray to white. And, accordingly, the lighter the caviar, the more expensive it is. The color depends on the age of the fish. The older the beluga, the lighter the caviar will be. The high cost of this caviar is due to the fact that the fish spawns extremely rarely, the female has to wait 27 years for puberty and is listed in the Red Book.

7. Saffron

 

About 1000 dollars per kilogram. It is one of the most expensive spices in the world. Saffron has been cultivated for over 3,000 years, but it is a very problematic undertaking. Saffron is the stamens of flowers from the crocus family, which bloom only 7 days a year, and are harvested and further processed by hand. Because of this, its cost is so high.

8. Ruby grapes

 

A bunch of these grapes can cost up to $5,000.

This grape variety is grown only in Japan. Each of his grapes should weigh about 20 grams, and the size - with a ping-pong ball. This variety was bred for 14 years, hence its high cost.

9. Musang coffee

 

About 1000 dollars per kilogram. The difference between this coffee is that animal musangs swallow ripe coffee beans, digest them and defecate them. These excreta are collected and processed.

The gastric juice of the animals has a beneficial effect on coffee beans, so the taste of the finished coffee is caramel-chocolate.

10. Moose cheese

 

Up to 1100 dollars per kilogram. Truly golden cheese. It is sold by pre-order only. Moose cow milk can be obtained only from May to September and they are milked for 2-3 hours. This cheese is produced only in Sweden. Cheese is white, reminiscent of feta. It is produced in very small quantities, hence the high cost.
