World's most expensive Cheese: Made from Donkey's Milk!







 

It is said that Cleopatra, Queen of Ancient Egypt, took baths in donkey's milk to preserve the beauty and youth of her skin. Legend has it that no less than 700 donkeys were needed to provide the quantity of milk necessary for her daily bath.

You could never imagine it but still it is true. Serbia produces the world's most expensive and rare cheese, that too from donkey's milk. The cheese, called Pule.

Donkey cheese is produced at only one farm in Serbia and is one of the world's most expensive foods.

  1. 700 donkeys for one bath? I COULD NOT ever be so ridiculously self-indulgent. Terrible!
