Some farms don’t kill the sturgeon now as they take so much time and resources to mature. They squeeze the roe out with a special massage technique and it comes out of the sturgeon’s hoo ha, then she goes on to live her fishy little life until she has produced more eggs and the process is repeated 🖤
I thought that was how it was always done, i was shocked to find out otherwise when they sliced that fish open alive. A lot of experienced goldfish owners do this if their fish gets blocked up, I guess that's why I thought otherwise to begin with
Sorry bro.. But if im spending my money to feed them hungry big ass fish an employee to do that then im most definitely bossing up the price of the eggs cuz i definitely need paid as well... Every investment needs to pay dividends to be successful...think about it...
It's almost like different people have different tastes in food. You might not like it but I'm sure plenty of things you like someone else could call nasty. It's not like our perception is universal in any way. lol
@@orangejjay I agree! When I told my friends I like eating pigs ear, they were like😱. And when they told me they like to eat deer meat, I was like BAMBI???😭😭
Currently, the biggest caviar producer is China by a huge margin. Next time, when you get your made in US/Canada/Italy caviar, it could just means they got import from China and the local company just AGED it and put in a tin.
That's EXACTLY why it's still sold. It's something rich people are TOLD they should eat, to show the plebs how rich they are. It's the only reason it's sold.
It makes me laugh that people would think eating fish eggs is somehow a sign of accomplishment. Who needs happiness or satisfaction in life when you can say "I have the money to eat dead fish eggs?" Ahhh. The prestige! I can smell it from the screen. lol
@isabellavalencia8026 no they're not lol squeezing eggs n sperm from sturgeon been practiced n master in the uk for decades, they are not like humans lol that was funny tho lol
Calling it amazing to kill fish just for their eggs is kinda wierd imo...And those are some very rare fish nowadays...basically a prodcut NOONE needs yet there is a whole industry behind it...
@@RSTales95I’d prefer if they didn’t kill the fish and instead squeezed out the eggs and let the female live to lay eggs again. I think they get less eggs (like 70% or something) but the fish doesn’t die.
Sturgeon fish is widely consumed. I highly doubt that they just waste the entire animal. Now not all countries are equal in conservation practices. Hence the beluga sturgeon becoming almost extinct. However, I believe that most companies now realize that without good conservation habits they will not have an industry left.
I understand the idea is weird to many. I wonder how many people on here that say people just buy it for status have ever tried it. I love it and I wouldn’t care who knew or didn’t know. This isn’t trout or even salmon roe. It tastes like little bubbles of liquid salted butter but even better.
Growing up, my family would harvest and cook the yellow and white roe from mullet. Today, they’re considered a delicacy and are very expensive. They won’t sell you the fish with the roe in it unless you want to pay extra. Ridiculous.
Raise the price of some weird shit to highest and call it a luxury, You will have rich arseholes buying that shit to feel secure for themselves that they're so special while some people struggle to feed their family. That's the world we live in
I wish they’d squeeze out the eggs and allow the female to lay eggs again. A little fewer eggs but the female lays again (I think they become mature around age 3?). I’d like to know if they also sell the killed sturgeon fish for consumption - it would be horrible for the fish to go to waste.
So the Row fish is the Mercedes of caviar. The other fish is the Lexus. They add activated charcoal and squid ink to give it the color of the Mercedes. They then package and sell it as the Mercedes 🤔. So, a Mercedes body on a Lexus chassis with a Mercedes price tag 🤔.
The fact that i see these (cavier) fish eggs in the fish itself and throw them away with their intestines makes me seem like a classless vintage person. I don't understand the hype in this fish eggs, honestly
Last time I had a jar black caviar was 1987. It had enough salt to last me for a lifetime. As a kid we had a couple jars of black caviar we got from the Deli. We only had it once. Way too salty for me.
The ridiculousness of using microscopes to examine each egg and make sure it's absolutely perfect is beyond comprehension. It's almost hilarious, how intricate the process is that they use to determine the quality of freaking fish eggs. I guess if I was dumb enough to spend $5,000 on eggs, I'd want every sphere to be perfectly round also 😂
They kill them because the eggs are extracted from the ovaries of the fish. In order to get the quantity of eggs needed, that means opening up the fish and scooping them out. There's no way to massage them out and also get enough eggs for sale. Capitalism over welfare, as usual.
I thought they didn’t have to cut these fish open anymore. I saw on a documentary on animal planet or the discover channel where they can extract the eggs through some sort of message technique. I thought they said the majority of caviar companies were doing no kill egg extraction now. I guess not. 🤷♂️
Hope they can use the gutted sturgeon for food of some sort. Seems like a waste to throw it away. I was very impressed by all the scientific equipment and biohazard suits! Never had caviar, but the thought of eating fish eggs grosses me out. Must be delicious though for the price.
Is caviar eaten this much? I cant tell you the last time i heard anyone say, " i has sime good caviar last night." At the same time, i dont know anyone who would. 😂

It's so funny how what was once peasant food is now a luxury good.
Just like lobster
@@DistantLightsJust like vegetables. The rich stuck to meat and bread while the peasants ate vegetables. Oh how the turns table.
Like crawfish
@@lizboudreaux6811crawfish is nasty to me
Like Nigiri or any Cajun food...it was all once poor people food
When you've too much money, you don't know what to do with it.
Yes i agree but I want caviar
@@AhmedSamir-w1m😅😅😂
Lol what do you do for a job? “I get paid to check & taste test caviar”😂😂😂
God I wish that were me.
Keep these videos up reminds me of staying up late watching how it’s made
To all of you saying that it tastes terrible.. you probably bought a cheap one.. the expensive one is like butter
I had to come here after attending a caviar testing and hating everything. Lol I couldn’t wrap my head around the hype of these fish eggs.
LOL, caviar isn't for everyone! 🐟😂 It's definitely an acquired taste. At least you gave it a try-kudos for the adventurous spirit!"
If it’s farmed on such a huge scale why is it’s still so expensive!!!
Supply and demand is 90 percent of it
Sorry bro.. But if im spending my money to feed them hungry big ass fish an employee to do that then im most definitely bossing up the price of the eggs cuz i definitely need paid as well... Every investment needs to pay dividends to be successful...think about it...
True 😢
Because theres always been someone who can never be afford it.
It’s only because they can sad but true 😢
This channel will skyrocket with subs and views soon. I wish you good luck.
Why you think that
0:22 You know the food has to be expensive when its description is like casting three high-tier spells from Final Fantasy.
Rich people eat weird food, I tried it in Norway and it was nasty.
They so rich that they don’t know what to eat anymore😂
It's almost like different people have different tastes in food.

@@DjentleAnt I enjoyed pickled pigs feet 🤤
It’s certainly an acquired taste
Imagine getting paid money to test the freshest caviar 😮
right lol
I’m good. 🤢
i doubt its much and that you would enjoy the caviar for long :D
Boss: Time for your lunch break
Me: This is my lunch break
Great show! I love seeing how everything is made, harvested, packaged, etc. Thank you so much for sharing!❤
Currently, the biggest caviar producer is China by a huge margin. Next time, when you get your made in US/Canada/Italy caviar, it could just means they got import from China and the local company just AGED it and put in a tin.
So is garlic.
This is one of those things that nobody thinks tastes good, but rich people are told they should like it so they suffer through it.
I actually think it taste good, and I am not rich or affluent by any means
😂
That's EXACTLY why it's still sold.
It's something rich people are TOLD they should eat, to show the plebs how rich they are.
It's the only reason it's sold.
It tastes extremely good 👍 ❤
you might be onto something! 😂 It’s definitely one of those 'acquired tastes' that not everyone enjoys, but it sure has its fancy reputation!
Why is caviar so expensive? It doesn’t even taste that good😂
Nikolas Sturgeon!
It's a aquired taste, I grew up on it . Bagette slivers, butter, Caviar, chopped Chives and a few drops of lime, And fine Vodka(From the freezer)
U r right ❤
It makes me laugh that people would think eating fish eggs is somehow a sign of accomplishment.
Who needs happiness or satisfaction in life when you can say "I have the money to eat dead fish eggs?"
Ahhh. The prestige! I can smell it from the screen. lol
After the roe is removed, can the fish be sold and consumed by customers.
Is that a question or a statement (.) (?)
Looks like the fish is still alive when they cut it open!!
@@gloriarutman8516I sure hope not!
観られてよかったです！
I still don't see why they won't harvest its like trout, just squeeze eggs out n let them live to produce more for next harvest lol.
I believe this fish is just like a human woman were born with the amount of eggs that were going to ever have we don't get more
Because you only get to harvest eggs once
@isabellavalencia8026 nope they reproduce on the regular, plenty of Russian practice this method n it works they don't die like salmon
@isabellavalencia8026 no they're not lol squeezing eggs n sperm from sturgeon been practiced n master in the uk for decades, they are not like humans lol that was funny tho lol
@@buddkhang2183 wrong. Did you even bother to watch the video?
I would like to know what they do with the fish after they remove the eggs
Filet of fish.
It's a shame that the fish has to die to extract its eggs. Caviar is nasty why it's known as a luxury is astonishing
@@angelataylor4540Caviar is not nasty. Just because you don’t like it, doesn’t mean it’s disgusting for everyone.
@@angelataylor4540I agree it's gross. Poor fish are cut open alive..😢
They probably fuck it
I grow up with black caviar and now I can not afford it
Calling it amazing to kill fish just for their eggs is kinda wierd imo...And those are some very rare fish nowadays...basically a prodcut NOONE needs yet there is a whole industry behind it...
What is your suggestion then?
@@RSTales95I’d prefer if they didn’t kill the fish and instead squeezed out the eggs and let the female live to lay eggs again. I think they get less eggs (like 70% or something) but the fish doesn’t die.

These fish are farm raised. Their only purpose in life was for this
This was insightful, thank you.
I have never seen this process so that’s why it’s so expensive - highly skilled personnel to do this job.
Champagne vision and caviar dreams
That food taste testing ones are lucky to get paid for eating that😂
🤮

Real-time data collection from modern agriculture machines enables informed decision-making.
Growing up, my family would harvest and cook the yellow and white roe from mullet. Today, they’re considered a delicacy and are very expensive. They won’t sell you the fish with the roe in it unless you want to pay extra. Ridiculous.
If I have that experience in my family growing up I would have probably would have sold them as delicacies for profit
Diesel was cheaper then gas , propane was a burn off .
Raise the price of some weird shit to highest and call it a luxury, You will have rich arseholes buying that shit to feel secure for themselves that they're so special while some people struggle to feed their family. That's the world we live in
So wait is the poor creature still alive right down to the slicing open of their stomach?….oh man! 😢
yup. animal cruelty 😢
Why do they look so gross😂 it just seems weird to me….
But, these workers are Awesome 💪🏼❤️
What happens to the sturgeon ? 😢
I make it a rule to never eat anything that a fish would deposit in a river bed.
If they handle the roe with metal during production why should we use bone or shell spoons while eating it?
*roe
I remember my parents always had caviar in the pantry. Never really had a pantry of food but we always had a little jar of caviar 😂
What happens with the rest of the fish?
Depends if that type of sturgeon tastes good they can sell the meat but some don’t taste good so they just discard it.
I wish they’d squeeze out the eggs and allow the female to lay eggs again. A little fewer eggs but the female lays again (I think they become mature around age 3?). I’d like to know if they also sell the killed sturgeon fish for consumption - it would be horrible for the fish to go to waste.
They sqeeze the eggs now!
Now, go back and count how many times "The highest level of quality" is said. *rolls eyes.
The fish are still alive when they are cut open….heinous
So the Row fish is the Mercedes of caviar. The other fish is the Lexus. They add activated charcoal and squid ink to give it the color of the Mercedes. They then package and sell it as the Mercedes 🤔. So, a Mercedes body on a Lexus chassis with a Mercedes price tag 🤔.
Let’s walk on egg shells for stergeon and be careful with THOSE eggs but let’s use a snow shovel for salmon and trout roe! Pfft
I rather eat chia seeds 😂
Bingo! I agree with you and added with the fruity taste of some juice, it's what caviar tries to be but fails at.
I'm asking if the fish can be eaten by people or composted
They use the whole fish for fish products like fish cakes, fish fingers , and crab extender, it also goes for pet food ect
The fact that i see these (cavier) fish eggs in the fish itself and throw them away with their intestines makes me seem like a classless vintage person.
I don't understand the hype in this fish eggs, honestly
Why do I get the feeling this is just a reupload of another show? The odd placed logos and watermark makes me think it’s covering something
Probably is.
Compatriots, I really enjoyed watching this video. ❤❤❤❤ Good luck.❤
Yuk. Can’t tolerate such small and crowded spaces.
This fish has better life then some people
I don’t like this but I can’t stop watching
So interesting how you're always told to use mother of pearl or plastic to eat caviar and naver metal, but they're using lots of metal in the process.
Sad, they are so cool looking!
Is the process of producing sturgeon eggs complicated?
workers enjoy free caviar every day haha
Keliatannya enak caviar❤
5:51 no wonder that stuff is so damn salty
Sturgeon are endangered. This entire setup is completely bonkers to me.
My brother in Christ it’s a damn fish egg
What happens to the fish once they remove the roe?
Do they make fish food do they sell it to restaurants the fillet what the hell happens to the fish
What becomes of the sturgeon once the roe is harvested? Are they sacrificed?
Last time I had a jar black caviar was 1987. It had enough salt to last me for a lifetime. As a kid we had a couple jars of black caviar we got from the Deli. We only had it once. Way too salty for me.
The scale of the fish farm is really large.
What type of salt is used?
The ridiculousness of using microscopes to examine each egg and make sure it's absolutely perfect is beyond comprehension. It's almost hilarious, how intricate the process is that they use to determine the quality of freaking fish eggs. I guess if I was dumb enough to spend $5,000 on eggs, I'd want every sphere to be perfectly round also 😂
that shi looks delicate. F for the mommy fish tho lmao
I don't care how much of a luxury or how expensive it is. You couldn't pay me enough to put fish eggs in my mouth.
After few decades potatoes gonna be a luxurious food
How stupid 4:18 to continue to kill them when they know they can massge it out and not kill the "rare and exquisite fish"...
They kill them because the eggs are extracted from the ovaries of the fish. In order to get the quantity of eggs needed, that means opening up the fish and scooping them out. There's no way to massage them out and also get enough eggs for sale.
Capitalism over welfare, as usual.
You forget to mention that the sturgeon is killed to extract the caviar.
What happened to the fish after they extracted the eggs?
They probably sell it to Purina.
I asked a question awhile ago and never got an answer so I ask one more time what about the rest of the fish what do you do with all that meat
Wonderful video ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂❤❤❤❤
Why do they need to be so careful extracting it but a few seconds later, they handle it all very roughly 😂
i suggest that you get your terminology correct caviar is not made it is harvested.
Any way to harvest the egg without killing the fish?
No. The eggs are harvested from the ovaries and you can't get to the ovaries without opening up the fish.
I thought they didn’t have to cut these fish open anymore. I saw on a documentary on animal planet or the discover channel where they can extract the eggs through some sort of message technique. I thought they said the majority of caviar companies were doing no kill egg extraction now. I guess not. 🤷♂️

I thought the eggs would be too soft but they go through a lot and still maintain
I’ve said I would never eat fish eggs gross but I’ll eat chicken eggs 🤔😂
Is caviar eaten this much? I cant tell you the last time i heard anyone say, " i has sime good caviar last night."
At the same time, i dont know anyone who would. 😂
My question is, and always has been, do they use the meat off of the fish to eat, or does it get thrown out?
4:36 so this is why caviar is so expensive
I don't understand the appeal
Cavier is really good, but people complain to complain like the peasants they are
The white caviar from the albino sturgeon is the most popular
Ahh,, Caviar
The infamous SUPER Expensive fish eggs only rich people could understand.
(Seriously tho,, It taste like MUD)
Titanic after watching movie and come😅
Is there no way to extract the row without killing the fish? Seems wasteful. What do they do with the rest of the fish?
They shouldn't kill the fish and just remove it in the hole so that they can reuse the fish
I feel sorry for the fish just getting harvested for that
Is caviar more expensive than truffles
So does this delicate process hurt the fish?
And if you have a sodium problem not good to eat. My parents couldn’t eat it but it was a novelty to my brother and I as kids.
The area to raise them is very large
How do they kill the fish before removing the eggs?
I thought fix eggs were fragile? I mean there whipping mixing beating that caviar up!!!
How do they use the dead fish in ways that will feed people and not waste the fish???
When I win the lottery.......
Not mentioned but Spain produces some of the very best farmed Sturgeon caviar.
I’m gonna milt! I’m gonna milt!
