I should have known such cheap caviar is going to taste....cheap. Very salty and has no body or flavor to it. It's like eating chunks of salt marinated in fish water...yes that bad. I once tasted a more expensive caviar so I can tell the difference. My husband won't eat it after one bite and so I'm left to finish the whole bottle now. Next time I want real caviar, I better be ready to shed some money. Lesson learned.
