Kraft Foods Persuasive Speech

One of the best parts of traveling is eating. Next time you traverse the globe, consider treating yourself to the most expensive foods from around the world. Even if some of these dishes aren’t offered anymore, I’m sure they’ll eventually resurface if you demand it. We’ve even conveniently made a menu for you. You’re welcome.

BREAKFAST MENU:

1. First-harvest Brisbane Mangoes, Australia

Start the day off with a healthy serving of fruit! These first-harvest Brisbane mangoes sell for about $4,200 each. In October 2010, 12 mangoes were auctioned for $50,000 as part of an annual fundraising event.

2. Kopi Luwak, Vietnam

If you can’t
function without a cup of coffee in the mornings, try a mug full of Kopi Luwak, a specialty Vietnamese coffee, made by collecting coffee berries that are eaten and then defecated by wild civets. With a price tag of $100 to $600 per pound, it certainly beats Folgers.

3.
Westin Hotel Bagel, United States

Executive Chef Frank Tujague is the mastermind behind the world’s most expensive bagel. This bad boy, filled with white truffle cream cheese, goji berry-infused Riesling jelly and gold leaf, was once sold for $1,000. Don’t worry! Part of the proceeds were donated to the Les Amis d’Escoffier Scholarship, which benefits culinary students.

LUNCH MENU:

Scotland

With a name like Pizza Royale, this untraditional pie must be delicious. It was created by chef Domenico Crolla and sold for $4,200. It boasts some of the most extravagant (and pricy) ingredients on the globe, including champagne soaked caviar, cognac marinated lobster, and Scottish smoked salmon to name just a few. Oh, we forgot to mention that it’s topped with edible 24-carat gold flakes.

5. The Velvet Goldmine, United States

The most expensive milkshake is the brainchild of Adrianna Biggs, the mixologist at Powder Room, located in Hollywood.
At $500.00, the recipe consists of Belgian chocolate, edible gold leaf, and liquor, topped off with a $190 Swarovski ring.

DINNER MENU:

If you’re like me and love seafood, head over to Manila to try Chef Angelito Araneta Jr.’s sushi creation. For about $1,978.15, you will receive five pieces of sushi wrapped in gold leaf, topped with caviar, three Mikimoto pearls and a diamond!

7. The Frrrozen Haute Chocolate, United StatesFrozen Hot Chocolate - ClapwayPhoto Courtesy of pressabroad.com

For dessert, this $25,000 ice cream sundae, offered at Serendipity 3, contains a blend of 28 different cocoas and is decorated with edible gold. But if that’s not enough, it’s also served in a goblet lined with more gold, along with an 18 carat gold bracelet and 1 carat of diamonds lining the bottom. Of course, to eat this creation, you need to use a golden spoon decorated in diamonds.

TOTAL DINNER BILL:
$36,978.15

Considering you opt for only one mango and the cheapest of the Kopi Luwak coffee, your bill is just short of $37,000. Ehh..it could be worse.
