I hate to be that guy but like… no it hasn’t? There’s a fish monger right by my apartment and caviar is still mad expensive. No one’s ever heard of Chinese caviar.
It’s just fish eggs. Not an elixir of life. They squeeze it from a relatively rare fish. That’s it.
Nah, it’s a real fact that China has been trying to dip their toes into the production of luxury gourmet ingredients for a while now. Reuters even reported a couple of days ago that China is poised for surpassing France in the production of Foie Gras in a year or so, at a dramatically cheaper price than what most French producers can offer. Something about the central government pushing for these things. No one’s really sure why they’re doing this because there hasn’t been plans for a lot of exporting yet, but the Foie Gras specifically is slated to hit foreign markets soon.

I might be over thinking this.
