World's Most Expensive Sandwich.

The world's most expensive sandwich is for sale at Selfridges Department Store in London for £85 or $148. It is made from Wagyu beef, foie gras, black truffle mayo, brie de maux, roquet leaf, red peppers, mustard confit, British plum tomatoes, and sourdough bread.

Wagyu cattle are one of the most expensive breeds in the world. The Japanese cows are raised on a special diet, including beer and grain. They are supposed to be regularly massaged with sake, the Japanese rice wine, to tenderize the flesh.

It is called (ironically) the McDonald sandwich, after its creator Scott McDonald, the chef at the department store.

What a load of balony!

I live in Japan and the Wagyu meat is nothing special!
My [Japanese] wife buys it every other day, and a 1kg pack will usually cost around US$10!
In fact, it resembles nothing short of stringed fat with bits of meat hanging off it!
It's virtually tasteless until covered or dipped in one of multitudes of sauces!
Anyone who pays $148 for this sandwich is definitely being ripped off!
