    A kilo of chanterelle mushrooms sells for under 40 euros at an online grocery (more expensive than brick and mortar) around here. So that’s less than 20 euros for a pound.

    It’s also pretty questionable whether using fresh weight is really fair for some of the mushrooms.

    Weirdly enough, Cordyceps sinensis cultivation has recently had a breakthrough and I believe they’re moving towards commercial production (caterpillars and all), so the price might go down.
