While most people spend roughly two to three dollars on a hot dog from a vendor, the Tokyo Dog food truck serves an outlandishly expensive Japanese hot dog that comes with a price tag of $169. This hot dog is allegedly the most expensive dog in the world earning it a spot in the Guinness World Records.
Why does this hot dog come with such an expensive price tag? It's all thanks to the high-quality ingredients list with things like Maitake mushrooms, foie gras, shaved black truffles, Wagyu beef and even caviar. On top of that if you're interested in trying one of these elite hot dogs, there's a two week advance order that needs to be placed with Tokyo Dog so that they can make it for you.
