Wanna taste a $112,000 food?
A truffle weighing 1.2kg (2.6lb) has sold for 95,000 euros ($112,000; £64,000) at an international charity auction in Italy.
An anonymous buyer – reportedly from Hong Kong – purchased the white truffle via satellite link-up.
Wow, $112 000? That’s a huge sum of money! But since it’s an charity auction, maybe it’s not that bad…I wonder how much money from that will actually go to the charity.
I wonder how special is the taste of a food worth $112K ….
