So Expensive Food Season 2 Marathon | So Expensive Food | Insider Business

Love the way the Fois Gras farmer actually loves the history and respects the animal and discourages over consumption, well done 👍🏽

Kenyan here. I absolutely enjoyed watching the coffee section give an accurate portrayal of the struggle most farmers goes through

Gotta admire Eduardo's principles. This makes his product not only valuable, but also an art.

The spanish geese farmer is such a gentleman. You can tell he really cares for his flock and what they produce. It's great he uses the whole bird instead of just wasting it for it's liver. Stand out chap.

Eduardo is the literal definition of a gentleman. Absolute 👑

0:00 Indonesia (Pearl Lobster) 8:34 Spain (Foie Gras) 20:22 Spain (Baby Eels) 34:22 Kenya (Cherry Beans/Coffee) 50:36 Colombia (Panela/Raw Sugar) 1:03:49 Japan (Olive Wagyu) 1:12:55 India (Cow Ghee/Butter) 1:21:57 Korea (Shiko/Korean Rice Syrup) 1:37:17 Cambodia (Kampot Pepper) 1:52:17 China (Royal Jelly)

So The story about the pepper farmer actually caused me to do some serious introspection. When the farmer was talking about how his family could just barely live on $2000 per year. And here I am, watching this video on a computer that cost twice that amount of money. This world we live in is so messed up. That guy deserves so much better prices for his hard work.

The man with his geese and dogs is so dang cute, just adorable to watch.

Angula fishing makes me so mad. The eel is so threatened that it's even illegal to fish grown ones here in Sweden, and these people are fishing thousands of them, never giving them a chance to grow up into adult fish. I used to fish eels with my dad. Now only a memory. Thanks a lot!

1:36:03 can I just say that this sweet sweet man and his equally sweet daughter brought me so much peace in watching them together. Also he made me laugh so hard when he said his favourite part in making rice syrup was making money. That’s all I have to say. Just pure wholesomeness that made my heart flutter.

This marathon sure is overwhelming, but in a satisfying manner. We hope to see more content like this being uploaded.

I'm impressed by the insiders' clarified work, flawless editing and elegant topics. It's people's hard work that helps students in extra knowledge. Such work needs more thanks.

Another thing about Eduardo's Geese farm, is not only does it avoid the ethical issue that Fois Gras normally has, but the geese are also free-range with a lot of space to roam and he limits how many geese he harvest, it's basically as ethical as any animal can be.

50:52 in Brazil those bricks are called "rapa-dura". My father used to produce it alongside his sugarcane-based alcoholic beverage (cachaça, famously used in caipirinha). During the process my mother used to separate a portion of the "honey" then add roasted peanuts. The mixture hardens and becomes a delicious candy: pé-de-moleque. The facility was discontinued, though, around 15 years ago. But still... it's so easy to find and cheap that the prices in dollar I saw in this video surprised me. I can buy a 1kg block of rapa-dura from a neighbor farmer for 5 reais (1 dollar).

Angulas (Spanish Baby Eels) fishing baby eels is insane or total madness.

the angula one has this almost absurdist comedy vibe. the bidding, the chef just being like it has no taste, it's about the crunch, and then it being like "yeah now they make imitation angula with imitation crab and no one can really tell the difference and it's 1/60th the price", and then the chef like, "you gotta kill them with spit tobacco so they don't all piss-slime themselves", and then the way it jumpcuts to them scattered on the table(?) and they don't even look real, and then ends with the fisherman you kind of assume to hate the job, sifting nets all night like a gold panner kind of just blurting out at the end as if he can't contain himself that he just loves it, like 'ah no i'm not trapped in a job i hate, i would do this all day every day for freee, catchin lil squirmiwormyeel babies ffFFFFFF😩'

"I love the stage where I make money." Hey, at least dude is honest. It's perfectly fine to love what you do and want to be paid for doing it! Kudos!!

Thank you for posting this. Been watching for many years. This marathon was great to watch

7,280 Euro for a kilo of baby eel??! Only crazy people can do that .

this foie gras farmer is literally a rolemodel, who would think I'd look up to a geese farmer
