From chicken wings to chocolate, gold food is becoming a new food trend. Edible gold foods are covered in 24k gold leaf, which is safe to eat but can't be broken down by your body. In Japan, Gold Kit Kat bars have gotten the Midas touch, and sushi chefs are adding gold topping to make their nigiri sushi sushi pop. A restaurant in New York serves gold chicken wings and gold donuts are becoming a new dessert craze. Though gold may look beautiful, it's actually flavorless.
