Fun fact

In 2018, McDonald’s released a range of Kobe burgers in Australia. These hamburgers, which contained “the most expensive meat in the world”, were nevertheless sold at a very affordable price (AUD $10.75). But when you factor in the cost of a return flight to Australia to get your hands on one, well... it does sound like quite an expensive burger after all.
