Shitting on Malaysian and Singaporean cuisine
Thinking French cuisine is somehow worse than the garbage the British call food
Imagine being this mentally colonized.

I've had several types of roe before, and they're just nearly flavorless, textureless jelly with just a hint of an unpleasant fishy taste. Maybe they're not actively disgusting, but they're not good and they certainly don't contribute anything to any dish that couldn't be gotten in cheaper and more palatable forms elsewhere. Like I bet I could get 99% of their impact with fish sauce and corn starch, I just really, really wouldn't want to ever do that.
I assume roe is pretty regional but the stuff I usually see around here is a lot firmer than the fancy roe you get in restaurants, has a kind of "pop" texture to it(as unpleasant as that might sound just described.)
As for the taste idk, its salty fish taste, wont be for everyone. You can usually get tiny jars of it here for less than the average fish sauce(excluding maybe worchestershire sauce.)
