Caviar lovers, interesting bit of information for you - North Carolina is one of the places where caviar is produced.

A rather interesting Luxist Guide To Beluga Caviar Alternatives (link below) describes different alternatives to a more traditional caviar.

One of these alternatives - Carolina Rainbow Trout Caviar, is produced in Western North Carolina.

"Fresh water caviar are a true delicacy. For those of you who have never tasted caviar before, you will be delighted to learn that our caviar is very mild and never tastes "fishy". For the true connoisseur of fine caviars, you will discover that Sunburst Caviar will delight your palate and astonish you with it's level of superiority. Our eggs are much smaller than salmon eggs and the color often is brighter." More at Sunburst Trout Company.
