a bagel and cream cheese!

4. Nasty. I was given some once,

and I ended up feeding it to the cat.

[unblock]

5. Man that is one spoiled cat.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

6. Better than tossing it in the garbage, which was the other alternative.

I sure as heck wasn't going to eat it.

[unblock]

12. And do you feed your dog chateaubriand?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

15. No, because

(a) I like chateaubriand, and (b) I don't have a dog. Caviar, however, is disgusting to me, but the cat was happy to have it.

[Floyd R. Turbo]

10. Lucky kitty! 😋

[CelticWinter]

29. i dont like fishy stuff so

I would feed it to the cat too.

7. Looks lovely there

I'd try it. There was certainly a time when I'da said "haaail no!" but I've been getting better at eating. I love sushi and that sometimes has roe so I think I could do this.

[Floyd R. Turbo]

11. My favorite way to have it. On a blini with sour cream, chopped egg, sweet onion and either parsley

or chives! 😋

[OriginalGeek]

24. Yep I like all those things

So adding some fish eggs didn't be too bad.

[Floyd R. Turbo]

25. Point taken! 😋

[brush]

33. Mmmmm! That sounds good.

[Floyd R. Turbo]

34. Awesome! Even better when I can score buckwheat flour for the blini! 😋

9. DEEEliciousss

[Floyd R. Turbo]

13. 😋

[pangaia]

14. And my favorite

Ikura uzura.. only also with a raw quail egg.....

[Floyd R. Turbo]

17. Oh wow! I have still not had uni! 😋

[pangaia]

19. Ya gotta be sure it is really fresh... or rather, 'well-selected.'

of course fresh, or well-selected is relative..... fresh in Tokyo or NY or SF is not the same as fresh in St Louis or Minneapolis. :&gt )))

And even on the coast, best if it is a really good sushi bar for the best uni.

But even 'not the best' is good, IF you like it.
And.if the restaurant KNOWS how to get good uni...

[Floyd R. Turbo]

20. Cool! Thanks! 😋

[3catwoman3]

36. I've only had uni once, and it must not have been fresh...

...bacause it tasted disgusting. Only sushi I haven't liked.

Too chicken to try the puffer fish variety.

[pangaia]

37. Uni certainly is NOT for everyone. :))

[3catwoman3]

40. Not only did it not taste good, I remember...

...the texture feeling rather fuzzy/hairy. Distinctly unpleasant.

16. Put me in the delicious camp - they're bursting with flavor.

[Floyd R. Turbo]

18. 😋

[grumpyduck]

21. It totally depends on the grade

Cheap caviar is awful... not even close. Good caviar (which is expensive) tastes totally different. Of course, some people are still not going to like it. Fine. More for me.

[Floyd R. Turbo]

26. True! 😋

[Kali]

22. sure makes that cold vodka feel good

put me in the more or less disgusting camp. I can eat it, but it just seems like bait to me. and it is especially gross on soft bread (or in blinis)

[Floyd R. Turbo]

27. 😢

[MissMillie]

48. cold vodka always feels good

Don't get me wrong--it will put me on the floor faster than you can count to 10. But it feels good.

[GulfCoast66]

23. Love it...

But then I also love spotted sea trout(not a trout) egg sacks rolled in cornmeal and fried in bacon fat. Upon reflection, I may like that better than caviar.

[Floyd R. Turbo]

28. 😋

[brush]

35. I'm is the yes camp too. I will also eat the roe on lobsters.

[bearsfootball516]

30. Blech. No thanks.

[Floyd R. Turbo]

32. 😢

[no_hypocrisy]

38. Cheap caviar reminds me of bait.

[Floyd R. Turbo]

39. 😢

41. If I had to choose between caviar and starving to death

I'd have to ask you to let me think about it for a couple of days.

[Floyd R. Turbo]

42. 😢

[DFW]

43. Sorry about that. To me, it's like 50 year old cognac.

Some people prize it as a treat for the most special of occasions. To me, it's a substitute for nail polish remover.

So I'm a peasant. I can't help it.

[DiverDave]

44. Gag.

Eom

[Floyd R. Turbo]

46. 😢

[MissMillie]

45. I like it. I don't love it.

Depending on what's being served, I think I would prefer a little slice of smoked salmon.
