While 99% of Americans are busy scarfing down as many $2 Subway "sandwiches" as they can, the 1% are eating fucking diamonds. Oh yes really: Belgian chocolatier Wittamer has put together this here $240,000 chocolate praline, and it costs so much because presumably it's really good chocolate but also because they threw a 3.63 carat diamond on top. Also: dark ganache, caramel, ginger, and edible gold leaf. It comes in a jewlery box and the diamond is actually set in the chocolate. Not sold? Eh, like you have $240,000 to blow on chocolate anyway. See you at Subway! Here's a video:
