  1. I have eaten Black Truffles ( not Chinese) twice and it had always made me have the feeling of wanting to eat more after.

  2. I do believe there is a flavor and maybe even quality difference. However The main thing you see here is the same things we have seen throughout the centuries as soon as China rejected and fought against colonization from the West. It is a way to squeeze China out of the Truffle market and maintain a status quo. It is on the same level of xenophobic business practices that lied about MSG, African Palm Oil, and outside of the culinary world things like Nigerian petroleum oil I can go on and on… etc.

  3. Interesting episode. The ending was the best — feeding the poor. The truffle story was interesting and ridiculous, it made me think of the tulip craze in the 1600’s. I enjoy Ina Garten’s videos & like her concept of simple & not too difficult cooking. The Italian chef was interesting, but his super expensive, over-the-top food is out of my reach. I loved his feeding the poor & wish for much more of that in our world of too many Have Nots.

  4. Truffle Mushrooms – Rich people spending THAT much money on such a small part of a meal, makes me sick to the core. Is this the world that we live in today? Yes.
    Vile human beings.

  5. Stupid commentary. Istria, Croatia is right next to Northern Italy. It is a truffle treasure house. $25 will get you a ridiculous dish of pasta covered with grated and sliced truffles. I know, I’ve enjoyed many times without breaking the bank

  6. Who cares. Hundreds of thousands of people like me can barely afford to feed themselves and find shelter. Do a story about that.

  7. It's amazing how some people are deceived about how expensive some food, art, clothes, ect are,just because someone said so It's obvious that some of this items are not for the typical John Doe but for millionaires and billionaires that have such amounts of money to waste it in stupidities.

  8. I've always loved Ina. I've been in the Food and Bev industry most my working life, and Ina always serves as a perfect example of humility and warmness. Not much matters more than eating and drinking with people who matter most.

  9. I only wish we all had the spirit of your last story with the awesome chef. Amazing.

  10. Hey if the glove fits and is affordable I’ve no sympathy for the folks charging so much you’ve created an awful black market 12:55
