Surprisingly Expensive Foods that Used to be Cheap

Sushi

Sushi

Sushi is a fancy meal. Beauty in simplicity — perfectly steamed sticky rice topped with raw fish. Sushi is now everywhere. You can buy a tray at the supermarket if you can pay thousands of dollars for a few pieces in Michelin-starred restaurants.

Sushi wasn’t always a trendy food, though, wrapping fish with rice was an ancestral way of preserving it and prevent it from spoiling.

Sushi arrived at America in the 1960s thanks to Japanese immigrants in Little Tokyo, Los Angeles. From nigiri to California rolls, today sushi is one of the most popular types of food in the world and it’s expensive compared to other foreign foods. What would you expect from such a delicious treat?
