Is beluga caviar taste worth its price?

Question by ‘: has anyone ever tasted beluga caviar?
i hear that salt preserved matured sturgeon fish eggs is what they put in the most expensive food there are

when i heard there really was such thing as the $ 1000 pizza, $ 1000 dessert, and the $ 1000 omlet

caviar was in all of them

give me a break sure maybe the labor put into the dishes strait from scratch itself can cause such outragious prices but

is the tasted worth it?

    The thing is that the sturgeon is on it's way to rapid extinction.
    About 20 years ago I lived for 2 years in Iran, when it was still called Persia and the Shah was emperor.
    When throwing a party we ate caviar from 1 lb. tins @ US$ 10.00 per lb. with pink Iranian vodka on the side.
    Those times are gone for ever. Shame.

    Saffron is, per pound, the most expensive food in the world, followed by truffles.

    When I was a chef, I was fortunate to taste it, Serverga, Mallosol, Kamchatka, the ones from Denmark from the lumpfish (they are dyed), a couple of American ones Paddlefish and Oregon Sturgeon.

    Here in Canada we have salmon, trout and whitefish, all less expensive than the Russian and Iran sturgeon ones, like most things it is something you like or not, it is a bit fishy, but if good it is a pleasant salty sweet taste, a bit nutty and has a light aftertaste.

    If you eat it with all the traditional garnishes, like red onoins, egg white and yolks from boiled eggs, capers, parsley, bit of lemon juice on toasted bread points. It is in the way you eat it as to how you either eat it again or not.
