Here is the next offering in the World's most expensive foods. Sometimes you have just got to wonder WHY?
This semi-hard cheese is made from the milk of the ancient breed of Podolico cows, which produce a small amount of milk per season. The short season only runs from spring to the beginning of summer each year and it is for this reason that the cheese is difficult to find and consequently expensive. The cheeses are hung to mature and the effect of gravity gives them a pear-shaped appearance. Caciocavallo Podolico is currently available to a lucky few at around $60 per kilo. This compares to the average supermarket cheddar, which is priced at a more modest $10 per kilo.
Many people recognise fugu as that cute little fish that “puffs” up when it is threatened. Although fugu is a long-standing delicacy in Japanese cuisine, parts of the fish can be highly poisonous and must not be eaten. A chef must be trained and granted a special licence to serve the fish, as eating it when it has not been prepared correctly can prove fatal. Consequently its sale is banned within the European Union but it is served in other parts of the world, including the US, South Korea and Japan. The Times reported in 2004 that the cost of a small fugu meal in Tokyo started at 13,000 Yen ($160), making it one of the most exclusive and expensive fishes eaten. Chefs like Mukoujima Hashimoto serve the fish in various forms including ‘Hot Fugu Porridge’, ‘Smoked Fugu Fins in Sake’ and ’Fugu Fried Ribs’.
