                    [Summary] => Have you ever wondered why the edible bird’s nest, the main ingredient of "nido soup," is almost as precious as gold?


Believe it or not, the whitish (considered Class A type) cup-shaped nest commands from P100,000 to P120,000 per kilogram in Manila. And its price can shoot up to as high as P400,000/kg in the international market.

This high market value can approximate that of gold, which is priced by weight in grams. Thus, the edible bird’s nest is sometimes dubbed "white gold".
