Kim Jong-il spent $700,000 Every Year On Cognac


Can you believe the late dictator Kim Jong spent $700,00.00 a year on Cognac? No wonder he was always tripping about blowing every country up, he was intoxicated and I'm sure his staff was too j/k.

According to Japanese sushi chef Kenji Fujimoto — a pseudonym for the man who’s now living as an escapee in Japan — Kim was a man of extravagant taste. During his 11 years as his personal chef, Fujimoto says he was sent to France to supply the ‘Dear Leader’s’ $700,000 cognac habit; to Iran for caviar; Tokyo for fish; Denmark for beer and ham; and, for the occasions when his boss was feeling less high-brow, to Beijing for Big Macs — to go.

Kim demanded nothing less than the best. That means a staff of 200 was hired to make sure every grain of rice was perfectly shaped — no cracks, no chips.
He was a veritable gourmand, who could talk for hours about foie gras, truffles and Kobe beef. His favorite cooking show was “Iron Chef.”
