According to The Priciest Foods Ever… And Why Expensive Foods Cost So Much, the white truffle is the world’s most expensive food.
More expensive than any other food, let alone any other fungus, the white truffle stands at the top of the expensive-food chain. These gems are so expensive because of their rarity and because truffle hunters rely on luck and pigs to find them. White truffles can cost up to $2,700 per pound.
The white truffle Tuber magnatum is found in the ground under certain tree species in northern Italy and some parts of Croatia.
