Truffles
Truffles are type of fungus that grows underground on the roots of a few species of tree in temperate regions
As the truffles grow underground, unlike mushrooms which grow over ground and cannot be spotted easily by the human eye. So truffle collectors use animals with a finely developed sense of smell like dogs or pigs to smell them out. The truffles have a musty smell.
Since truffles grow with great difficulty, and specific species require certain environmental conditions , they are very expensive, often costing several hundred dollars a kilo.
