In our house when something new was presented the inevitable question was: Ikura desuka ? - in other words, how much ?

At the end of the video they show the price as 980 yen which equates to:

That's for a 183 gram can which equates to:

In other words, it's not cheap.  But they do use actual chicken and it's made by actual people (although they're all suited up for an operating room).  The facts from their web site:

Biryani is an Indian dish, I'm thinking curry but not so saucy ?  I dunno, never had it.

So the idea here is having emergency food on hand but tasty and fun, maybe not Chef-boy-ar-dee Ravioli in quantity or low price - maybe more like having Rao's or Carbone pasta sauce instead of Ragu :)
