  2. Today with sturgeon facing extinction caviar will remain a delicacy and very expensive.
  3. The United States imports approximately sixty percent of the total world caviar supply.
  4. Caviar is full of proteins, vitamines, low in calories and thus is a complete meal by itself.
  5. Caviar is being given to patients after surgery to aid their recovery.
