Snail Caviar

Move over, fish! There’s a new roe on the dinner menu: snail caviar.

Being the first in the world to produce snail caviar shell-less and unpasteurized, the farm – founded by two former snail farmers – spent nearly four years perfecting the production and harvesting process, resulting in tiny, smooth cream-colored pearls that reportedly burst on the tongue with subtle autumn and woody flavors.

Being a food hipster ain’t cheap: 50 gram (1.8 oz) of snail caviar retails for $115.
