LH and most other carriers that offer caviar service will offer chopped egg, sour cream, cheese which is fine.
However, people that mix onion (especially red onion) with caviar simply means they don't like caviar. The onion kills the flavor IMO.
Actually, the "right" way to eat caviar is on a bliny with "creme freche" and chopped scallion. Then there's the way the mass eat it which is what you described - no offense intended.
