We have one more mushroom on our list! After Fugu fish, Japan gives us another expensive food item. Did you know these mushrooms can cost up to $900 a pound? Matsutake are hard to harvest and hence very pricey. Not only are they used in exotic foods, these mushrooms are also famous for their pungent aroma.
5. Kopi Luwak Coffee

We thought the world’s most expensive coffee would come from Brazil. But Kopi Luwak hails from Indonesia. Do you know why it costs so much? Because the yearly production is limited to only about 500 pounds. We wish we could afford paying $300 a pound to get a whiff of this lovely coffee, wouldn’t you?
This list is not exhaustive, friends. There are many more exotic and expensive foods that can be added to complete this list. Oh, there are just too many good things in the world, don’t you think?
