We all like to eat well, and sometimes it’s worth spending that little bit extra in order to get the best food available, but how many of us would consider spending nearly £2,000 (22,000 yuan) for a pig’s leg? British gourmets 1 with money to burn are licking their lips at the thought of a Spanish ham that has gone on sale this week at shop in London. The 7kg leg of Iberico ham costs £1,800 (19,800 yuan) and even comes with its own DNA 2 certificate to guarantee authenticity 3. Cured ham has long been enjoyed as an expensive delicacy 4 around the world but the hefty price tag attached to these hams sets them apart from other similar products. The reason they are so costly 5 is because they come from a group of only 50 black Iberian pigs personally selected and reared by a third-generation Iberian pig farmer and curer.
