Why not, how bad is it? It generally had 4 or 4.5 out of 5 star reviews.

I want opinion of people who have actually had it

i fucking love lumpfish roe, sat down with a jar the other day and just eat it as is to be honest

give it a go, it's worth trying at least once

>>8462271
I'll give it a try; what brand do you use?

>cheap
> real caviar

choose one

>>8461158
3rding that.

Caviar is binary. Either it's really really expensive and fucking amazing, or it's shit. Those are the only two choices.

>>8461798
I have had it. It's awful. Even the stuff that costs $30 for a jar the size of a shotglass is awful.

>>8460847
Expensive and disappointing.

But at least do the full service with boiled egg, toast, capers, onion, creme fresh, and so on. That will make up for it a bit.

Is it actually awful as far as taste goes

or just an awful imitation of real caviar? I've never had either

try the good stuff first then you can compare

it's like the guys who say that 'truffle is a meme' , they have never ever eaten real white truffle from Alba or black period truffle only the cheap and tasteless chinese or u.s. onces

It didn't make me want to spit it out or make me sick, but I certainly did not want to take a 2nd taste. It was outright unpleasant. And I've tried a few types, equal experience each time. I kept hoping that maybe one of them would taste decent but nope, they were all awful.

Got ya, that makes sense.

Do you remember which brands you tried?

It has to be really expensive so you believe you're not eating garbage despite doing so. Kinda like buying Apple.
