Do you feel a pressing need to top your caviar with scintillating spheres of gold? Did you know that you could? Do you have to rush out and buy this fabulous product now?
Well, kids, it's finally here. Angel Tears. Little gelatin globes with 24k gold leaf floating in them. Yum yum.
A mere snip at $96.00 for 2.65 oz.
Now, really. I'm all for luxurious foods. I eat the fois gras and drink the Dom Perignon when I get the chance, but GOLD?
1. Gold adds no flavor, and isn't the point of an ingredient to add flavor?
2. It has no food value. You just get expensive poop.
3. OK, sure, it looks pretty, but do ya really need to eat it?
4. The best I can say is that it probably won't hurt you.
Incidentally, ever wonder how much gold is in Goldschlager? Well, these good people researched it so you don't have to.
And, yes, I love that Nerfherder song.
