Gold is a beautiful thing, so when we think of things that we'd like to do with it, ingesting it is not at the top of our list. Granted, a little bit of gold leaf on a chocolate cake makes a great presentation, but would you really want to eat golden pills? Designer Tobias Wong specializes in turning everyday objects into objects of desire for the man (or woman) "who has absolutely everything" and these pills fit the bill nicely. The little capsules are filled with 24K gold leaf and dipped in gold. While 24K gold is safe to eat, at least in very small quantities, we're not sure that this is such a good idea. Price: $275.
