Hit your local IKEA food store, there's plenty of kaviar there,

Swedes eat kaviar like no other people, tons of it. This is what Swedish kids put on their sandwiches instead of marmalade, nutella and peanut butter:

doesn't the best kaviar come from the caspian sea? russian/persian kaviar.

I looked at wiki and caviar tradiationally refers to russian/persian(iranian) caviar from the caspian sea and not the cheaper immitations (Salmon etc).

"Traditionally the designation caviar is only used for sturgeon roe, namely from the wild sturgeon species from the Caspian Sea, in most cases from Russia or Iran (Beluga, Ossetra and Sevruga caviars). This caviar varieties, according to their quality (flavour, size, consistency and colour) can reach (February 2009) prices between 6,000€ and 12,000€ per kilo, and are associated with gourmet and Haute cuisine environments"

The word caviar entered English via Italian "caviale",[7] though it is ultimately derived from Persian خاویار, pronounced [xɒvjɒr], from khaya "egg" (from Middle Persian khayak "egg," from Old Iranian *qvyaka-, diminutive of *avya-, from PIE *owyo-/*oyyo- "egg") + dar "bearing." [7]

Some people[who?] also think it derives from the Persian word خاگ*آور (Xâg-âvar), meaning "the roe-generator"; others say chav-jar, which means "cake of power", a reference to the ancient Persian practice of eating caviar in stick form as a kind of elixir.[8]

In Persian, the word refers to both the sturgeon and its roe; in Russian, the word икра (ikra), "roe", is used. The Russian word malosol ("little salt") sometimes appears on caviar tins to show that the caviar is minimally salted; typically, caviar contains 4% to 8% salt, with the better-brand varieties generally being less salted.

damn 6-12K per kilo?
