It has always been considered prestigious to have something, “the very thing”, to surprise others, to become famous or to amuse one’s vanity. My post today is about the most expensive products in the world.
Square watermelon – $200 a piece
It is important to note that these watermelons have nothing to do with gene mutation, radiation, and similar experiments. These are completely ordinary varieties of watermelons. For the first time, square watermelons were grown in Japan for the convenience of transporting and storing these delicious berries.
This form of watermelon gets its’ shape as a result of the fact that at an early stage of ripening it is placed in a cubic transparent container. That is, it turns out that you can grow anything (even a tomato or an apple) of any shape. All that is needed is a transparent (to let the sun’s rays penetrate through it) container of the desired shape.
As for square watermelons, they are not particularly in demand. The main reason being that they are not tasty. The middle is almost always white and lacks a lot of flavor, consequently, they are mainly used to decorate the windows of grocery stores or to surprise someone. In the US, such a watermelon costs about $200.
Beluga caviar – 4000$ per kg
Perhaps the most revered fish caviar in the world of food connoisseurs, Beluga Sturgeon Caviar is one of the prominent sources of black caviar. The hybrid variety between Huso Huso and Acipenser Ruthenus, it is treated by Caspian Salt Masters.
