The higher prices also have yet to trickle down to derivative products like truffle butter or infused oils …

Well, no, since the supply of 2,4-dithiapentane isn’t affected by the weather.

Correct , that one is only affected by the price of oil; a.k.a. petroleum.

I think the price of “truffle” oil bears no relation to its cost of production.

So, we skip white truffles this year. Maybe invest in a pretty little Red Wattle piglet instead.
