| I’ve had various fish roe but not cavier (sturgeon eggs). I keep seeing it on cooking shows, can someone describe what it taste like? Can you really just sit there and eat it by the spoonful? |

| They're a bit salty, but yes, they're delicious. I do eat them by the spoonful. I don't like blinis or sour cream or any of the accoutrements, though. Just give me caviar. Yum. |

| If you’ve had other roe you have the basic idea |

| Hard to describe and there are different kinds with distinct favors. I grew up in a place where caviar was plentiful (sold by the kilo) and people did eat it in quantity. I only like it in small amounts, on a blini or potato chip. |

Sturgeon is completely different than salmon. |

I much prefer Salmon roe to caviar. Although Bowfin caviar tastes better to me than Sturgeon caviar.
But NOTHING is as good as fresh-squeezed Shad roe on hot toast with salt and pepper and a Shandy to drink. When I say fresh-squeezed, I mean literally ON the riverbank immediately after landing the fish, with bread toasted on a campfire. |

Maybe if you had the other types of roe fresh, you'd like them even better... |

| Salty and slimy - not a fan of the taste or texture |

| Salt, maybe a little seaweedy |

| It’s incredibly sad and inhumane how they remove the eggs from fish. |
