Moscow Gets Caviar Vending Machines

Government officials in the United States have a reputation for getting too much in the way of special treatment and perks but it seems holding political office in Moscow is really where the good stuff is: they get vending machines that dispense caviar. Looking much like a pop machine, a shiny red caviar vending device was installed recently in the Moscow mayor's office and several more are planned for parliament in the coming weeks. So far 33 caviar machines have been set up in and around the capital's government and upscale office buildings, each dispensing the delicacy in glass jars and tins of varying sizes for between £3.50 and £15.00 each.

I wonder if it's any good, coming out of a machine like that?
