Caviar- what makes it expensive
3 Answers
I always assumed caviar was from the eggs from a fish and the expesive one from a rare fish ( where I come from we often eat small black/red eggs whitch also are called caviar but are cheap). Somone told me that they thought it was form a whale- Logubo(?) I though whales were mammals and are now very confused.

Caviar is indeed fish eggs - traditionally from a fish called a Sturgeon, though eggs from much more common fish get to be sold as cheap caviar - think of it a bit like champagne: there's Spanish then there's the real stuff. The most expensive Caviar is generally Beluga Caviar (Beluga is the largest and rarest of the 3 types of Sturgeon). This will cost around �30 an ounce (25g) which is about a heaped teaspoon!
