[quote=Anonymous]Grew up in Soviet Union. We ate lots of pork, ground beef, potatoes, eggs, black bread, root vegetables, cabbage, stews, milk, herring.
Most common was boiled potatoes with meat and gravy. I think we took Hungarian goulash soup and made it into gravy+potatoes  thing instead.
We also ate a lot of soups as they were easy to make and kept us warm.
Milk, meat, eggs,vegetables were all local and fresh. 
Nobody had time to make food into art form. I thought the food was great. I love warm food a lot more than cold.We ate fast and got back to doing things we really wanted to do. I love it that nobody seemed to be allergic to anything as the choices were narrow and all kids finished their food. Sugary things were not for every day unless lunch time at school.
I'm not a picky eater and it was not a thing to play with food or go on and on how one doesn't like something. It was shocking to see this throwing pies around in American movies and shows. I never starved, so it's not that. Playing and wasting food (and other things) is just not a thing to do.
