I heard this on the radio this morning and was a bit surprised.
Frankly, though I like caviar with eggs, I do not think I would like
lobster with it.

Besides... for *my* one thousand dollars, you can bet I want more
excitement than two kinds of eggs and a chunk of something that looks
like the exterminator forgot about it.

Six ounces of caviar is what shoots the cost up, I assume, though the
type was not specified. I get pretty snooty about caviar at those
prices.
