On August 1, the international French radio reported that Chinese brands are gradually taking dominant positions in the field of high-class cuisine. The annual production volume of foie gras in China this year will most likely surpass that of France, making China the world’s largest producer of foie gras. At the same time, China is already the world’s largest exporter of caviar: almost half of the caviar consumed worldwide is produced in China, replacing traditional suppliers like Russia and Iran in the global market.
Furthermore, China also ranks first in the truffle market. Black truffles, grown in Yunnan Province and the Liangshan area of Sichuan Province, account for about 80% of the world’s annual production volume, with a large portion entering Europe as well as global food supply chains. Black truffles are now far from being exclusive to expensive restaurants.
Foie gras, truffles, and black caviar are known as the “three Western delicacies.” Thanks to a complete supply chain, modern cultivation technologies, and the ability to control costs, China has not only become the world’s largest production base but also lowered prices, allowing more families to enjoy these exquisite products.
