When the Great Depression began, the demand for Kool-Aid skyrocketed. It was a staple in practically every American home. To help families in a time of extreme financial instability, Perkins lowered the price from 10 cents a package to just five cents, and it stayed that way for years. A marketing campaign cleverly billed the drink as the “budget beverage.”

Dubbed a “superfood,” cordyceps are a mix of medicinal mushroom and caterpillar that only grow at elevations above 14,000 feet in the Himalayas of Bhutan and Tibetan Plateau. Considered the world’s most expensive mushroom, cordyceps can cost over $10,000 per pound and even have their own dedicated auction.

Dubbed “white pearl,” this particular type of caviar ($3,000 a pound) is one of the most treasured on the market (the majority of starlet caviar is black), harvested from rare, freshwater albino sturgeon farmed in northern Europe.
