These rare foods start at just $1 and become increasingly unusual, extravagant and expensive until the price reaches an astonishing $100,000. Nick DiGiovanni and Guga taste their way through an incredible collection of foods from around the world to find out which ones are actually worth their price.
From strange fruits and enormous eggs to luxury seafood and exceptionally rare delicacies, every new price level brings something completely different to the table.
From a $1 Banana to Extraordinary Luxury Foods
The challenge begins modestly with a pink velvet banana, an unusual fruit with fuzzy skin, black seeds and a flavor unlike the bananas most people are used to eating.
From there, the prices keep climbing. Nick and Guga encounter black Silkie chicken, durian, giant ostrich and emu eggs, pufferfish, fresh cacao pods and increasingly extravagant ingredients.
As the rare foods become more expensive, the scale changes dramatically. The later stages feature luxury ingredients worth thousands of dollars, including Tasmanian crab, premium caviar and some extraordinarily rare lobsters.
But price isn’t everything. Along the way, Nick and Guga also decide whether each unusual food actually deserves its price tag.

The escalating price makes this one difficult to stop watching. Every new food leaves you wondering what could possibly come next — and how something edible could become so expensive.
There’s also an amazing variety of ingredients packed into one video. Some are fascinating because of their appearance or origin, while others stand out because of their incredible rarity and price.
Going from a $1 fruit to food worth an astonishing six figures makes this a food challenge on a completely different scale.
