How to Eat Caviar
Community Q&A. Caviar was once a specialty food enjoyed only by royalty and the wealthy elite, but today, caviar has become readily available to the public. In spite of it's availability, its unique flavor can make eating caviar for the first time a challenge. Learn how to eat caviar and enjoy this fine delicacy.


What You Need to Know About Caviar
Simply put, caviar is lightly salted roe or fish eggs. Sturgeon roe is considered premium and true caviar. It comes in four varieties -- beluga, sevruga, osetra and ship. The most expensive is beluga caviar ($174/ounce in 2008 pricing) from beluga sturgeon that swim in the Caspian Sea, which is bordered by Russia and Iran. Beluga is characterized by soft, pea-size eggs ranging from pale silver-gray to black.


Do You Have to Refrigerate Mayonnaise After It's Opened?
The presence of eggs is usually a sure sign a food is perishable and needs to be refrigerated. This is not the case with store-bought mayonnaise. If you rush a jar of mayonnaise back to the refrigerator once the seal is broken, you should know you don't need to rush it back. The mayonnaise will not spoil if you leave it on the counter. Homemade mayonnaise is another story.


How Long Does Caviar Last?
Quick Answer. Caviar is a perishable food, and an unopened can or jar can stay fresh for approximately 4 weeks, while an opened container will only stay fresh for roughly 3 days according to About.com. Caviar must be stored properly in order to retain its delicate flavors, which means being kept at a temperature between 28 to 30 degrees Fahrenheit.


How To Make Caviar
Other types of caviar can be more or less salted. Although things have changed over the years, one thing still remains true: the salt. A special kind of salt was - and is- used to prepare caviar, a chlorine-free salt from the Russian Astrakhan Steppe, stored for seven years to assure the least chlorine content.


What You Need to Know About Caviar
Pressed Caviar. Considered the most inferior by caviar snobs, but much more affordable and ideal when using caviar in spreads, pressed caviar consists of damaged eggs and can be a mixture of varieties and grades. What to Look for in Caviar. Fresh caviar should be bright, shiny and whole.


Does Caviar Go Bad?
Does Caviar Go Bad? All eggs go bad eventually, and caviar is no different. These specialty fish eggs have a limited shelf life that is influenced by many factors, such as packaging and temperature. Caviar is a delicacy -- and relatively pricey, too -- so it should never go to waste because of poor storage. Know how to keep it from going bad too quickly so you can enjoy it to the fullest.


-
There is a misconception that caviar is the roe or eggs of big fish species. But there is more to caviar than the plain fish roe we see as the caviar we know is made from fish roe which is washed, brined, packed in tin cans and aged until such time it is served in the tables of the rich and famous.


How To Make Caviar
Salting preserves the caviar, extending its shelf life, but it also gives it a wonderful subtle flavor. Salting caviar is a skill acquired over time: too much salt and the delicate walls of the eggs break, too little of it and the caviar will spoil and the taste will be off. The highest quality caviar has a salt content of 3% (and sometimes even less). Salt is added to the caviar, left to impregnate and then washed off.

Lying Eyes, Or Something Else? How Blink Rate, Pupil Dilation Give Insight To Honesty And Attraction
As informative as pupil dilation, blink rate, gaze aversion, and unusually prolonged eye contact can be, Eastman says the muscles around the eyes communicate the strongest message because they dictate emotion. Without them, squinting wouldnât convey confusion. Raising eyebrows wouldnât demonstrate shock.


Why do the pupils in my eyes never dilate?
Even in the dark the pupils in my eyes stay tiny, they never dilate.. Ive had eye tests and my sight is fine but my pupils are tiny. Update: Its other people who,ve pointed it out to me and someone even said i look like a heroin addict. lol. A friend said they should dilate in the dark etc but they dont ever.


Lying Eyes, Or Something Else? How Blink Rate, Pupil Dilation Give Insight To Honesty And Attraction
According to Eastman, there is a strong correlation between arousal and specific eye movements like dilation and blink rate. Our eyes naturally dilate to allow more light in, but dilation also occurs in response to cognitive and emotional events. So when weâre interested or in any way emotionally stimulated â positively or negatively â in what weâre looking at, our pupils dilate. In fact, men tend to be attracted to women with larger pupils.


Does Love Make Your Pupils Dilate?
Humans' inborn fight or flight response, triggered by the parasympathetic nervous system -- a subset of the autonomic nervous system -- also manifests in our irises. When fear strikes, as Charles Darwin first proposed in the 1870s, the pupils expand to heightened attention and focus [source: Stern, Ray and Quigley ].

The simplest load to understand is the front-end load. Nothing too complicated about this one -- the day that you buy the mutual fund, you pay a sales fee, usually around 5%, and somewhere between 3% and 8.5%. Nothing confusing about this arrangement at all. You immediately lose a big chunk o' your money.


-
Instead of imposing a 5% sales fee up front, a fund will eliminate the front-end load entirely but impose an exit fee of 5% if a shareholder leaves the fund in the first year. This exit fee will decrease each year by 1%; however, at the same time the fund is charging a yearly 12b-1 marketing fee of 1% each year.


Mutual Funds: The Costs
In case you are still curious, here is how certain loads work: â¢ Front-end loads - These are the most simple type of load: you pay the fee when you purchase the fund. If you invest $1,000 in a mutual fund with a 5% front-end load, $50 will pay for the sales charge, and $950 will be invested in the fund. â¢ Back-end loads (also known as deferred sales charges) - These are a bit more complicated. In such a fund you pay the a back-end load if you sell a fund within a certain time frame.


The Average Mutual Fund Sales Charges
Average Maximum Load. The maximum legally allowed load for a mutual fund is 8.5 percent. Most funds have a top sales charge much lower than the maximum. The Investment Company Institute publishes an annual Fact Book that gives the average sales charges by type of mutual fund.


What is a 'Load Fund'
Comparing Loads of Different Share Classes. In the 1970s, mutual fund companies came under criticism for the high front-end sales loads they charged along with excessive fees and other hidden charges. As a result, they introduced multiple share classes giving investors several options for paying sales charges.

What is a 'Load Fund'
What is a 'Load Fund'. A load fund is a mutual fund that comes with a sales charge or commission. The fund investor pays the load, which goes to compensate a sales intermediary, such as a broker, financial planner or investment advisor, for his time and expertise in selecting an appropriate fund for the investor.


The Average Mutual Fund Sales Charges
The percentage difference between the NAV and POP -- based on the POP -- is the sale charge. For example, a fund with a current NAV of $10 and a 5 percent load has a POP of $10.53. The 53 cent difference is 5 percent of the $10.53 POP. The maximum legally allowed load for a mutual fund is 8.5 percent.


The Average Mutual Fund Sales Charges
What Investors Actually Pay. All load mutual funds have break points that result in a lower sales charges and POPs for larger investment amounts. The sales charge percentage starts to decline at investment amounts of $25,000 to $50,000 and falls even more at levels such as $100,000, $250,000, $500,000 and $1 million.
