(shrugging) If you don't like 'em now, you might try them again some
day and change your mind. Tastes change. Until then, there's more for
those who do like them. In particular, I like the texture of caviar,
which I would never call "slimy," and I love its saltiness and
fishiness. Seems unlikely that anyone could change your tastes with a
description. But rfc-ers are ingenious, maybe someone can.
