The $65 one you get only the Red threads

The $40 one you get lots of the yellow that do not do much good. :)

I used to have a co-worker who is from Columbia with Spanish descent. She showed me the Saffron once. It is amazing how such tiny "threads" could produce such strong aroma. Hers was from Mexico, a cheaper variety.

It and the Truffles (mushrooms) from France, are something amazingly expensive cooking ingredients. :)
