And yes, if caviar is your comfort food, there's a vegetarian substitute for that too. Read on to learn more about why caviar, fish eggs, is not vegetarian, and to find out about vegetarian caviar substitutes.

I didn’t know even that veggie cavier existed. Pretty cool!
Have you tried it? What do you think???
I LOVE the lumpfish Cavi-art!
Here is how I like it:
Sliced cucumber (round) topped with vegan sour cream and a spoonful of the cavi-art. YUM! Makes a great hors d’oeuvres to have with Champagne!
Sounds great. I haven’t been able to find it where I live.
