One of World’s Priciest Cheeses Made From … Gold
– If the idea of eating a $95 tiny wedge of cheese seems a little too, well, rich for your tastes, consider this: How often do you get the chance to dine on real gold? The Independent reports on England’s “blingiest” cheese, a stilton flecked with edible gold leaf. Clawson Stilton Gold is apparently the most expensive stilton in the world and the priciest cheese in the whole UK.
The Long Clawson Dairy in Leicestershire says an oil sheikh and a pop star have already inquired about the limited-edition cheese, and a rep for the dairy promises you’ll get your money’s worth: “You can see the gold clearly in the slices and we’ve not been shy with how much gold we’ve put in the batch.” Should you worry you’ll have a hard time swallowing such a costly item, fear not: You’ll be helped along by a bit of liquid courage. According to the dairy’s website, the cheese also contains “real gold-Cinnamon Schnapps.”
