Caviar, oysters, overpriced but delicious fancy cakes, Belgian chocolates, Belgian beers, French fine wine, Californian fine wine, Italian cheese--well just an offering of various cheeses at all meals, daily fresh from the bakery bread, fresh from the tree fruit, my CSA veggies (I miss my CSA!), fancy mushrooms, carpaccio, sashimi, ..... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-rich-food-would-you-eat#post-159841 Tue, 15 May 2012 22:41:29 +0000 yoursilverlining 159841@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For you guys who would switch to all free-range meats - contact your local (meat) farms and butchers! We buy a half pig at a time, and it includes all sorts of chops, house cured ham steaks, house cured bacon, sausage (hot and breakfast), pork roasts, etc. and when you break down the price, it's less than $3/lb, which is cheaper than supermarket pork. We've also purchased cows before, but I can't remember what price they worked out to (we don't eat much ground beef, so it's not a great deal for us).</p> <p>Just an idea to throw out there! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-rich-food-would-you-eat#post-159814 Tue, 15 May 2012 21:20:14 +0000 Minnie_Girl 159814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We would go totally organic and local. We already buy a lot of fresh produce, buy organic for the "dirty dozen," and usually get wild caught salmon every other week. Bone marrow and wine are occasional treats. I'd love to add local grass-fed beef and free range chicken eggs to the list! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-rich-food-would-you-eat#post-159810 Tue, 15 May 2012 21:13:11 +0000 PawPrints 159810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HabesBabe: I checked once I got home - our truffle oil most definitely is made with truffles! Oh and it's so, so good. I'd cook with it every day.</p> <p><a href="http://www.grapevinetrading.com/whitetruffleoil169oz-1-1-2.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://www.grapevinetrading.com/whitetruffleoil169oz-1-1-2.aspx</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-rich-food-would-you-eat#post-159711 Tue, 15 May 2012 20:03:23 +0000 heffalump 159711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't know much about rich people food.

I asked my husband what he'd eat if we were range and he said everything organic :) We only buy about half organic as it is because of money. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-rich-food-would-you-eat#post-159693 Tue, 15 May 2012 19:54:52 +0000 littlebug 159693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Good wine, for sure.

But super expensive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-rich-food-would-you-eat#post-159682 Tue, 15 May 2012 19:47:43 +0000 cyneswith 159682@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Really good wine, really good chocolate, and a lot more ice wine (I've only ever had one glass.) I do love roe on some sushi.</p> <p>ETA: Oh yeah, and all my food would be organic and animal by-products would also be free-range. Don't do much organic, free-range animal products at the moment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-rich-food-would-you-eat#post-159644 Tue, 15 May 2012 18:44:22 +0000 PawPrints 159644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HabesBabe: Doesn't make it any less delicious... or expensive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-rich-food-would-you-eat#post-159641 Tue, 15 May 2012 18:38:12 +0000 HabesBabe 159641@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PawPrints: Truffle oil usually isn't made with truffles! <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truffle_oil" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truffle_oil</a></p> <p>I would eat crab legs all the time.

I'd buy them more often if I were rich.<br /> King crab is also a favorite that I'd have shipped down from Alaska if I were rich.<br /> And large scallops...like U10's or something. I can never find U10's. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-rich-food-would-you-eat#post-159593 Tue, 15 May 2012 17:40:05 +0000 pastemoo 159593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LOL. Food is my favorite, so even though we're pretty darn poor compared to HB, I do eat rich food--just rarely, and I damn well enjoy myself when I get it. Rich food makes me feel richer than "rich stuff" so I don't buy expensive clothes, accessories, household or baby items--food is my special item. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-rich-food-would-you-eat#post-159545 Tue, 15 May 2012 17:05:22 +0000 regberadaisy 159545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love foie gras!<br /> If I was rich I would love to try fresh caught Alaskan king crab legs IN Alaska!</p> <p>I want to try Kobe in Japan!

I'd cook with truffle oil a lot more often. And of course more good wine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-rich-food-would-you-eat#post-159450 Tue, 15 May 2012 15:29:53 +0000 oliviaoblivia 159450@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd spend extra money on wine, good cheese, and chocolate. And meals out. There is nothing better than not having to cook or do the dishes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-rich-food-would-you-eat#post-159435 Tue, 15 May 2012 15:18:06 +0000 yoursilverlining 159435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I’m not rich, but eat all those things on the regular. Of course, I live in Maine and can get lobsters for $5/each, or $3.99/lb. ;-p</p> <p>I’d love to be able to eat more real truffles (not just stuff like truffle olive oil), and caviar. Oh, and agree with eating more Kobe beef too.</p> <p>This might sound weird, but BJ’s has really decent frozen seafood, if you have one of those near you. They are bags of seafood with individually frozen portions. I think the sockeye salmon is the most expensive (along with tuna steaks) and the bag isn’t more than $20 which is several meals worth. Yum, I love seafood. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-rich-food-would-you-eat#post-159424 Tue, 15 May 2012 15:13:31 +0000 MamaMoose 159424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: Ahhh give it another try!! Seriously... it's so good. Also, a wedding is probably not the best place to try it. I feel like food is never best at a wedding since they have to have so many plates ready at the same time.</p> <p>When I lived in NY hubs and I went to a function at Tom Colicchio's (head judge on Top Chef) restaurant Craft Steak. We decided to splurge and stay for dinner. We shared one tiny portion of the Kobe Beef and it was soooooo worth the ridiculous price. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-rich-food-would-you-eat#post-159410 Tue, 15 May 2012 15:09:02 +0000 mrs. wagon 159410@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Coco Bee: oh you're gonna make me cry!!!!! :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-rich-food-would-you-eat#post-159408 Tue, 15 May 2012 15:08:09 +0000 lilteacherbee 159408@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha I don't know. I hate all seafood and steak lol. When I go to Outback, I've been known for my drink costing more than my meal (yes, sometimes I get the child's chicken tenders, other times I get grilled chicken).
