Answer 2

Truffles are the most expensive mushroom and/or food product in the world (with the exception of perhaps saffron). Truffles the size of a golf ball can cost well over $150 (about $1500 per pound). http://www.sicilianculture.com/food/tuscany.htm

Answer 3

Truffles - it's rooted out by pigs in the Dordogne region of France. It can be more expensive than saffron by a factor of 50.

Answer 4

That bird's nest soup from Thailand? Phillipines? The others are expensive but no one is going to eat a POUND of caviar or truffles. A bowl of this soup I think is a few hundred dollars.

Answer 5

Caviar encircled by a ring of Truffles and topped with Saffron spice.
If you have to ask how much, you probably can't afford it.
Why do you ask, did you win the lottery?

Answer 6

Saffron.

This is from Wikipedia:

"A pound of dry saffron (0.45 kg) requires 50,000–75,000 flowers, the equivalent of a football field's area of cultivation.
Some forty hours of frenetic day-and-night labour are needed to pick 150,000 flowers. Upon extraction, stigmas are dried quickly and (preferably) sealed in airtight containers.

Saffron prices at wholesale and retail rates range from US$500/pound to US$5,000/pound (US$1100–US$11,000 per kilogram). In Western countries, the average retail price is $1,000/pound (US$2200 per kilogram). Between 70,000 and 200,000 threads comprise a pound."
