Most expensive cheese

The most expensive cheese in the world is produced Zasavica company from Serbia, 1 kg (2 lb) of this cheese cost 1000 euros (1400 US dollars). Reportedly, this cheese is so expensive because it is made from donkey milk, and for one kg of cheese need 25 liters of milk. This does not look impressive but when you know that donkey for the whole year produce 25 liters of milk, then you understand why this cheese is so expensive.

Donkey milk is highly valued in the pharmaceutical industry because donkey milk has beneficial effect on the skin, and apparently rejuvenated. It was noted that Cleopatra bathed once a week in donkey milk, and that is why her skin was perfect.
