The myth about the quality of products in the USSR. There was no vegetable oil in the USSR And gingerbread, by the way, is always not enough for everyone

the very first publication on the network (Ukraine)

Drive through the village right now - and
you will see: winter wheat is planted in the fields not just after the sunflower, -
the shoots of this culture are forced to drag out a miserable existence in the middle
huge dried badyls of a giant plant that no one bothered to
even clean up the field! What kind of steam is there, what kind of crop rotation ... And then we think-
we wonder why the quality of the bread has decreased, why it tastes more and more
reminiscent of papier-mâché ...

But back to animal husbandry. At the end of November, a meeting was held in Dmitrovka
bulk. According to the picketers, the local authorities at the level of the village council
blocks the implementation of the programs of the president and the government, conducts
illegal self-seizure of fields owned by the state and having
strategic importance, which violates the Law of Ukraine. Also, the villagers said
that they will cut out all the livestock, because due to the total sowing of the fields
they have nowhere to graze a sunflower.

Purely European ... La Piovra

A similar situation has developed not only in the Novoaydar region, where
practically all large villages fell into the "seed" bondage. Illegal
the seizure of pasture land and hayfields for sunflower occurs
everywhere in the Luhansk region, where the share of the agricultural sector in the total
production is only about 10% - the least of all in Ukraine! Conspiracy
dozens of village leaders and individual district officials joined.

"Sprut" covered many villages, destroyed the livestock complex of the region,
took thousands of villagers out of work, slaughtered tens of thousands of cows! And all for that
so that civilized Europe does not litter its fields with oilseeds,
using for this the countries of the third grade, which, apparently, include
Ukraine.

It is worth noting that the participants in the aforementioned rally put forward an accusation
the family company of the rural head "Flora" and the company "Agroton". Both firms
work in tandem: the chairman of the village council sows and
collects the sunflower, then together they load it onto the transport and
sell abroad. And already in the EU countries they produce ecological
fuel. This is how clean air for Europeans gets at the cost of murder
livestock industry of our state and the destruction of fertile land.

It is worth noting that in addition to fuel for Europe, some of these seeds
goes to our stores, and we buy them in beautiful multi-colored packages.
To increase yields, our agribusinessmen pump tons of
superphosphate, where one of the impurities is cadmium compounds. This is very
dangerous substances with which would-be manufacturers poison us in pursuit of
profit. Do we need such "European integration"?

hungry Soviet people stood in queues for many hours, putting numbers on their hands in order to fill a one-liter canister with a monthly norm for a coupon. Butted oil was distributed in special rations only to the party nomenclature, and if it got into the house of some Soviet engineer, then an empty oil bottle was kept in a sideboard long years, it was such a rarity.
There was also no vegetable oil for Yeltsin, oil (earth oil) was exchanged for vegetable oil. 1 in 10

Russia imported 500 - 700 thousand tons annually, the peak of import was in 2001 800 thousand tons. And in 1999-2001, with the arrival of Putin, measures were taken to restrict the import of vegetable oils and the export of sunflower seeds (even today there is a protective export duty on sunflower seeds) in order to support the domestic producer.
Today we provide ourselves with 97% of sunflower oil. And if in 2001 about 2 million tons of sunflower seeds were harvested in the country, then in 2011 a record harvest was obtained - almost 10 million tons.

1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011

This year, sunflower will be sown on a smaller area - about 7 million 150 thousand hectares. Although with such an increase in yield, the collection will most likely be the same. Over the past ten years, much has changed in the industry - the sown area has expanded, the number of processing enterprises, production and export volumes have grown significantly. And if earlier Russia imported oil, now it exports.
For the past few years, our country has been among largest suppliers to the world market of this type of oil. The world oil market is 5-6 million tons per year. The first place in export is occupied by Ukraine with its plantations of sunflower in the Nikolaev region. Argentina has traditionally occupied the second place, but this year, according to estimates international companies, it will sell for export less than 900 thousand tons. Sunflower oil exports are expected to break all records in this marketing year (October 2011 - September 2012). Russia will be able to sell abroad up to 1.2-1.4 million tons of products and come to the second place after Ukraine among the exporters of sunflower oil. Sales revenue will amount to over a billion dollars, for example, income from the sale of wheat (the main grain exported) is 5-6 billion dollars, from the sale of barley (the second largest crop) - less than 1 billion dollars.
Total
Imports of sunflower oil fell from 800,000 tons to 40,000 and exports from 30,000 tons increased to 1.3 million tons
Processing facility built. The export of sunflower seeds over the past 9 years has decreased by 94% (from 255.5 thousand tons in 2001 to 16.2 thousand tons in 2010). Since 1999, the production of vegetable oil in Russia has quadrupled.
At the same time, the export of soybean oil is growing - by 10 thousand tons to 145 thousand.
Now that Russia has strengthened its position in the industry and put the industry on its feet, it is possible to reduce duties
After joining Russian Federation the WTO provides for an annual step-by-step reduction in the rates of export customs duties on oilseeds. Thus, after the expiration of the transition period (4 years), the maximum (upper) level of the export customs duty for sunflower seeds will decrease to 6.5%, but not less than 9.75 euros per 1000 kg.
Currently, sunflower seeds (TN VED code 1206 00) are subject to an export customs duty rate of 20%, but not less than 30 euros per 1000 kg.

Disgusting food in any poor country. This is a law, it works everywhere without exception, unless, of course, the country is so poor that people feed on the land. Over the past couple of years, Russia has become significantly poorer. However, our people, contrary to common sense, began to praise the food. Many are convinced that fresh Abkhaz tangerines, fatty domestic milk and natural Belarusian cottage cheese have finally come to their table.

Heavy tools of self-hypnosis are used, transforming greenhouse Chinese tomatoes into fragrant Krasnodar ones. The person who praises the Russian cheese in 2016 has previously carried out difficult psychological work with him. It has become fashionable for us to pretend that you know about food. And skillfully "savor" the Argentinean beef that has been defrosted many times. Maybe people are ashamed that, not having had time to learn the taste of real food, they switched to compound feed again.

Shame makes you keep your face to the last.

Nostalgia processes the minds of Russians even more. An insidious trap: a person seemingly misses the times when he was young, fresh and in a hurry to his own wedding, and in the end his feelings boil down to a longing for sausage with saltpeter and crushed tomatoes.

If Russia today is only slipping into poverty, then the Soviet Union was a poor country. And the poor don't eat well. And they didn't eat.

Today Russia is approaching the Belarusian one in terms of the quality of its products. And this is a fall, not an increase.

The same nostalgia for the Potato cake helps to survive it. If you try to make cottage cheese or yoghurt from Belarusian milk purchased at the market or in the “farm” store, you will hardly succeed. Also, it will not work to ferment real milk with Belarusian yogurt or sour cream. It is not surprising, because the production of raw milk in Belarus is growing sharply every year, and the number of livestock since 2000 has been kept at the level of 4.3-4.4 million heads. But the import of milk, cream, condensed milk and palm oil from the European Union, Asia, Latin America... And export skyrocketed.

The Belarusians themselves, by the way, are not delighted with their products and prefer to buy goods in Poland, Lithuania or Latvia - at the border all sorts of "bagmen" create long traffic jams.

Because the Belarusians know: their products are very Soviet, and the producers are responsible not for the quality, but for the plan.

My mother taught commodity science in Soviet times. From an early age, I whiled away my free time in my mother's classes. Or at the lectures of her colleagues who taught food technology, accounting and reporting of a food store. I honed my reading skills on collections of food GOSTs.

Few people know that Soviet food GOSTs, firstly, had notes that indicated the possibility of replacing some ingredients with others. Secondly, GOSTs were changed often, for some types of products even twice a season - depending on the yield and milk yield. Thirdly, products for internal use and for export were made according to different GOSTs. So, for export sausages, it was forbidden to use any packaging films, except cellophane.

A diverse list of phosphates, nitrates and nitrites was also used only in sausages for the domestic market - for example, sodium phosphate monosubstituted 2-water, which is used in combination as a laxative and as a component of a liquid for washing windows. A common component of washing powders, sodium tripolyphosphate, was also put into sausages. To preserve the color, sodium and potassium nitrate were used - unconditional carcinogens. Boiled sausage and small sausages were allowed to contain 5 thousand mg of nitrite per kilogram - when frying, they turned into toxins.

The list of "improvers" and substitutes in sausages alone was huge. GOSTs officially allowed the use of cheek meat, boiling hooves, bladders, cow borers instead of trimmed meat in sausages ...

There was a note for each sausage variety, which indicated the possibility of replacing the ingredients: trimmed lamb for lean in a volume of up to 15%, meat in beef sausage for pork trimmings - up to 20%, buffalo meat and yak meat instead of beef - up to 100%, old sausages, wieners and sausages were allowed to be put in fresh ones, instead of natural spices it was allowed to use extracts, salt boiling of bones and plasma was allowed to replace the meat mass, up to 10% of sausages could consist of cuts of old smoked meats.

And finally, the final and most important note in the sausage GOST 23670-79 as amended in 1980 says that “instead of beef, pork, lamb, the joint use of a protein stabilizer, mass of beef meat, or pork, or lamb, food plasma (serum) of blood is allowed , starch or wheat flour ".

And this is just one GOST. And there were hundreds of them. And thousands of technical specifications, by which most food products were produced. According to TU, the oil for frying chips was changed every eight months.

Birch sap for kindergartens was sweetened water with vitamins.

The Soviet GOST 240-85 for margarine, culinary and combined fats, which made it possible to produce fats from the same palm oil, palm stearin, and cotton palmitine, will tell about the quality of confectionery products. And palm oil was then of much lower purity.

Pastries "Potato", cake "Log" according to TU were prepared from scraps, crumbs, spoiled biscuits and cookies with the addition of cooking fat and cocoa powder substitute. Bird's milk cake and sweets were also prepared according to TU from a variety of substitutes. There were no GOSTs with agar-agar, cocoa butter and natural eggs for "Bird's Milk", they are now invented by culinary bloggers who earn money on the longing for the Soviet system. The current producers of "gostovsky" chocolates make money on it. Clean water business based on blind nostalgia.

People yearn for the kombat chocolate icing that was sold to them at the price of modern truffles.

Ice cream, about which patriots moan so loudly today, was produced according to GOST only until 1966, and after that it began to be produced according to TU, and there were years when each republic had its own TU for ice cream, depending on the situation with the dairy industry. According to TU, ice cream was made from vegetable fats, mixed fats, starch and flour were added instead of agar-agar, and in the early 1980s, creamy ice cream varieties were replaced with milk ones: the creamy ice cream remained only in Moscow and Leningrad, and no one was going to feed the province with fat.

There were not six or eight varieties of ice cream in the provinces, as in the capitals, but one or three.

In the south of Russia there were regions where, outside the regional centers, since the 1970s, no ice cream has been sold, except for tomato, because all dairy products from agricultural regions were completely exported to Moscow. In Tyumen, the third type of ice cream (milk popsicle) appeared only in the late 1980s, and before that there was only milk in a glass and milk on a stick. The second channel on TV, by the way, also appeared only at the end of the Union, before that they got by with the first one.

I must say that GOSTs and even TU were not an indicator of the quality of products. Theft, deception in the Soviet Food Industry and trade was ubiquitous. And sometimes at the official level. At large sausage factories there were ordinary shops with sausage made from cheek, meat and bone digestion and bladders, and a gostovsky shop that worked for special rations, the Berezka and OBKhSS shop, from this shop came products for bribes and control. In smaller industries, different lines were simply launched. For example, two shifts with a doubled capacity produced starch sausage, and the third, night, drove the GOST standard.

Dairy products, which according to GOSTs, by the way, were also powdered and with vegetable fats, were mercilessly diluted and stolen.

Milk was diluted on the farm, then on the way to the dairy, on the way from the factory to the store, in the store.

Sour cream was diluted with diluted milk according to the same scheme, if necessary, compensating for losses with starch. Sour cream, in which there is a spoon, is not sour cream, but starch porridge: a spoon should not stand in normal sour cream. People who yearn for a spoonful of sour cream simply did not see anything good in Soviet life. Because then everything was stolen.




Only large-scale, that the state put up with it and introduced the concept of natural attrition, hoping that the thieves will leave at least a little to the people. For different goods a different level of natural loss was allowed, up to 20%, it included shrinkage, shrinkage, beating, spoilage, marriage, refusal and theft. But they began to steal even more: they legally collected cream and fatty sour cream, cut the hams from the chickens, cut off the shoulder blade, carried away fresh fruit in the amount of allowable loss, and then took it in excess of the norm and also diluted, weighed it down, pumped it with water. The trick about weighting chickens with water is not retail chains invented - it was discovered under the tsar.

And how much did such joy cost? A liter of sour cream in the central zone cost one and a half rubles, in remote regions - 1 rubles. 65 kopecks. A liter of milk - 48-50 kopecks. Until the mid-1980s, a creamy ice cream in Moscow cost 19 kopecks, and such a miracle as a milk ice cream cost 21 kopecks at the borders of the homeland.

Sweets with condensed milk, molasses and fondant from vegetable oils with cocoa waste such as "Burevestnik", "Pilot", "Lastochka" cost 3 rubles in the third price zone. 40 kopecks. Allegedly chocolates like "Mask" and "Grill in chocolate" cost up to 15 rubles. Soup sets - 1.5 rubles, meat that has never been on sale - 2.5 rubles. Meat on the market - from 7 rubles.

Several percent of the population could afford to buy goods on the market. With a good Soviet salary of 120 rubles.

Do not listen to those who say that Soviet people earned 250-400 rubles each. Such money was found only among elite knowledge workers, miners, shift workers-geologists. In 1976, 39% of the country's population, or almost 100 million people, lived in villages and villages, where a good salary was 60-80 rubles. The grassroots intelligentsia in the countryside received up to 100 rubles, in the city - 110-130 rubles. per month.

In 1965, the Central Research Economic Institute of the State Planning Commission of the RSFSR found that 73.51% of citizens in terms of income did not reach the poverty line, earning less than 65 rubles. per month. In 1970 average salary, made up of the salaries of a milkmaid and a Stakhanovite miner, in the Union was 122 rubles, and the median, that is, the most common, was 98 rubles. Have tariff scale there were coefficients: the farther from Moscow the teller of the same savings bank lived, the less he earned.

The average salary of a specialist was enough for 6.5 kg of "chocolates" or 10 kg good meat... Fortunately, they were almost never on sale - I didn't have to be upset.

People ate little, bought a little. My mother, who had to visit the stores on the other side of the counter, recalls that people bought candy at 100-150 g at most. In paper bags.

Cheese - 150 g each, butter - 50-60 g. On the day of receipt in the area of ​​retirement old women poured down to the grocery store - "for butter". So that the staff did not have ideological conflicts with everyday life, they were explained at trade meetings that a Soviet person prefers to buy a little, but fresh.

The authorities then had the task of filling the belly of the people at any cost. Stearin, starch and bone digestion were used. To prevent citizens from stretching their legs, if possible, vitamin and mineral complexes were added to the products. The same as for livestock.

From the provinces to Moscow and Leningrad, they scooped out all the edible supplies, leaving queues in the hinterland for the Tea sausage and candy-pillows. Prices grew with distance from the capital, the whole country was divided into three price zones, prices for three zones were indicated on many goods at once. Moscow did not pay attention to this, and the provinces quickly forgot that they lived from hand to mouth. And today he is desperately striving for poverty, for the Soviet "birch" sap and cubes of kombihir.

1959 year. Product department. Typical. If my vision does not fail me, the products on the counter are not very rich, to use euphemisms. And to put it bluntly and without embellishment, the counter is completely empty. True, it should be admitted that there is something hanging behind the seller's back. To be honest, I did not understand what it was. Tolley decayed meat carcasses, or something wrapped in oiled paper. Okay, let's assume that this is meat.

1964 Moscow. GUM. Gum ice cream has always been popular. And in 64th ...

and in 1980 ...

But, as they say, ice cream is not the only one ...

1965 year. In Soviet times, the approach to design was very simple. There weren't a bunch of stupid names. Stores in all cities were called simply, but understandably: "Bread", "Milk", "Meat", "Fish". In this case, it is the “Grocery store”.

And here is the toy department. The store, therefore, is a manufactured goods store. All the same 1965. I remember that in 1987 a girl I know, a saleswoman in the Dom Knigi store on Kalininsky, told me that she was uncomfortable every time when foreigners froze in stunned silence, watching her calculate the cost of a purchase on the accounts. But that was 1987, and in 1965 no one was surprised by the accounts. The department is visible in the background sports games... There are different kinds of chess, checkers, dominoes - a typical set. Well, bingo and games with dice and chips (some were very interesting). In the foreground is a child's rocking horse. I didn't have one.

All the same 1965. Selling apples on the street. Please pay attention to the packaging - paper bag(the woman in the foreground lays apples in it). Such packages of third-rate paper were all the way one of the most common types of Soviet packaging.

1966 year. Supermarket - Self-service department store. At the exit with purchases, it is not the cashier with the cash register who sits, but the saleswoman with the invoices. The check was strung on a special awl (stands in front of the accounts). On the shelves there is a typical set: something in packs (tea? Tobacco? Dry jelly?), Then cognac and some bottles in general, and on the horizon are traditional Soviet pyramids of canned fish.

1968 year. Progress is evident. Instead of an account - cash registers... There are shopping baskets - by the way, quite so nice design. In the lower left row, you can see a customer's hand with a carton of milk - such characteristic pyramids. In Moscow, these were of two types: red (25 kopecks) and blue (16 kopecks). They were distinguished by their fat content. On the shelves, as far as you can tell, there are traditional cans and bottles of sunflower oil (sort of). Interestingly, there are two sellers at the exit: the one checking the purchases and the cashier (her head peeks out from behind the right shoulder of the aunt-seller with a facial expression typical of a Soviet seller).

1972 year. Let's take a closer look at what was on the shelves. Sprats (by the way, later they became scarce), bottles of sunflower oil, some other canned fish, on the right - something like cans of condensed milk. There are a lot of cans. But there are very few names. Several types of canned fish, two types of milk, butter, leavened wort, what else?

1966 year. Something I did not understand what exactly the buyers were looking at.

1967 year. This is not Lenin's room. This is a section for the House of Books on Kalininsky. Today these shopping areas are packed with all kinds of books (on history, philosophy), and then - portraits of Lenin and the Politburo.

1967 year. For children - plastic astronauts. Very affordable - only 70 kopecks apiece.

1974 year. Typical grocery store... Again: a pyramid of canned fish, bottles of champagne, a battery of green peas "Globus" (Hungarian, I think, or Bulgarian - I don't remember something already). Half-liter cans with something like grated beets or horseradish with beets, packs of cigarettes, a bottle of Armenian brandy. On the right (behind the scales) are empty flasks for selling juice. The juice was usually: tomato (10 kopecks a glass), plum (12 or 15, I don't remember already), apple (the same), grape (similar). Sometimes in Moscow there was a tangerine and an orange one (50 kopecks - wildly expensive). Next to such flasks there was always a saucer with salt, which could be added to your glass of tomato juice with a spoon (taken from a glass of water) and stirred. I've always loved to have a glass of tomato juice.

1975 year. City Mirniy. On the left, as far as you can tell, the deposits of bagels, gingerbread and cookies - all in plastic bags. On the right are eternal canned fish and - at the bottom - 3-liter cans of canned cucumbers.

1975 year. City Mirniy. General form store interior.

1979 year. Moscow. People are waiting for the end lunch break in the shop. The showcase is decorated with a typical pictogram of the "Vegetables-Fruits" store. In the showcase itself, there are jars of jam. And, it seems, of one kind.

1980 year. Novosibirsk. General view of the supermarket. In the foreground are batteries of milk bottles. Further, in the metal mesh containers, there is something like canned fish deposits. In the background groceries - bags of flour and noodles. The general dull landscape is somewhat enlivened by plastic pictograms of departments. We must pay tribute to the designers there - the pictograms are quite understandable. Not like pictograms Microsoft programs Word.

1980 year. Novosibirsk. Manufactured goods. Furniture in the form of sofas and wardrobes. Further, the sports department (checkers, inflatable lifebuoys, billiards, dumbbells and various other trifles). Further down the stairs, there are televisions. In the background are partially empty shelves.

View of the same store from the side of the household electrical appliances department. In the sports department we can distinguish between life jackets and hockey helmets. In general, it was probably one of the best shops Novosibirsk (so it seems to me).

1980 year. Vegetable department. The line is watching the saleswoman tensely. In the foreground are green cucumbers, which appeared in stores in early spring (and then disappeared).

1980 year. Sausage. Krakowskaya, it must be.

1981 year. Moscow. Typical store design. "Milk". On the right, a woman is rolling a wildly scarce imported stroller with "windows".

1982 year. In the market, the Soviet people rested with their souls.

1983 year. Queue for shoes. Not otherwise, the imported boots were "thrown out".

1987 year. Queue for something.

Kvass saleswoman. People went for kvass with aluminum cans or three-liter cans.

1987 year. Electrical goods.

No comment…

Soviet underwear as it is. Without any colorful bourgeois packaging.

For especially spiritual people fashion footwear need not. But the women in this photo don't look very cheerful.

Shoes too ... But where to go? There is no other.

An almost sacred place is the meat department. "Communism is when every Soviet person will have a familiar butcher" (from a movie).

"Pork" - 1 ruble 90 kopecks per kilogram. Grandmothers can't believe their eyes. "Butcher, bitch, sold all the meat on the left!"

Soviet turn. What a tense look of people - "is it enough?"

“The meat will be brought in now. You will see, they will definitely bring him. "

"Eat meat!" Local brawl over the best piece.

Phallic symbol. It is enough to look at how reverently the aunt holds this object to understand that in the USSR sausage was much more than just a food product.

It is necessary to cut into more pieces of sausage, which will then be instantly swept off the counter.

Frozen hake is certainly not a sausage, but you can also eat it. Although, of course, all this does not look very aesthetically pleasing.

Not a single sausage ... For a Soviet color TV, a Soviet person had to pay almost a salary for 4-6 months ("Electronics" costs 755 rubles).

Vegetable department. In the foreground is a cart with some kind of rot. Moreover, it was assumed that someone could buy this rot.

An ineradicable antagonism between Soviet buyers and Soviet sellers. It is read in the man's eyes that he would gladly strangle the saleswoman. But it is not so easy to strangle such a saleswoman - the Soviet trade tempered people. Soviet saleswomen knew how to deal with buyers. More than once I saw a flurry of indignation and attempts to riot in lines, but the result was always the same - the victory remained with such aunt-saleswoman.

One of the features of the Sovok was the presence of a sophisticated system of benefits (all sorts of veterans, "prisoners of concentration camps", etc.). Various beneficiaries with red crusts in Soviet lines were hated almost as much as saleswomen. Look what a snout in a hat - not to "like everyone else" to take the put duck, he sticks a red crust - apparently pretends to be two ducks.

This photo is interesting not so much for the hake sold as for the packaging. Almost all purchases were wrapped in this brown tough paper in the USSR. In general, the darkest thing that happened in Soviet trade- this is packaging that, in fact, did not exist.

Another queue.

Suffering. No comment.

Those who did not have time were late. Now spells won't help.

Queue to the dairy department.

"Our work is simple ..."

The line to the wine department.

1991 year. Well, this is already the apotheosis. Finita ...

And this is a completely different line, the line of people who dreamed of escaping from the Sovok at least for an hour. And no spirituality.

    It was in the USSR, but there were many other, bright things. And the fact that the author of the collection and comments does not see this indicates his attitude not only to the USSR, but also to Russia.

    Answer

    Answer

    Everyone is right - the USSR was the most environmentally friendly country, no disposable packaging, no plastic bags, but only wrapping paper, which was made a second time - from newspapers ... Sk. saving resources worldwide!
    Secondly - the meat is natural, and not on accelerators ... Now, by the way, cows are not walked in the fields, they stand and feed only indoors all 12 months of the year, as before only the pigs stood.
    in 3, the number of varieties of sausages and everything else like now, for example, 120 sausages, 80 cheese, 15 oils - this is an INCREASE IN NET TRADE COSTS, which leads to an increase in retail margins. But a normal person, as it was in Soviet times, will distinguish from a maximum of 10 varieties, but 20 or more is already too much ..
    So on ... these 120 varieties are for show ... ah, abundance.
    And for me - give me 7 varieties of sausages, but Soviet ones, according to Soviet GOSTs, give me 4 varieties of cheese and three varieties of butter - but also according to Soviet GOSTs without palm oil and I don't care about the other 100-80 varieties of everything else, as the classic said - less is better ..
    The nonsense about canned food is generally a bluff - what were the Soviet canned food, what a quick soup it made from sprat in tomato sauce, and now capitalist canned food is impossible to eat ... just admire - half is in a can of water ... Everyone advises they say, run, write a complaint that there is only 50% normal content ... and so on for each product
    Even the fact that half of the content in newspapers is advice to the current consumer - how not to get caught up in buying absolutely everything - an apartment, furniture, shoes, not to fall for a fake under the guise of a cool company, how to read the composition of food on labels ..
    And in Soviet times, they did not think about it, everything was of high quality.

    There is a document: the speech of the future first mayor of Moscow, Gavriil Popov, at the Interregional Deputy Group, where he said that it is necessary to create such a situation with food so that food is issued with coupons, - said Yuri Prokofiev, first secretary of the Moscow City Committee of the CPSU in 1989-1991. - That it aroused the indignation of the workers and their actions against the Soviet regime.

    Yuri Luzhkov, then the "chief prod" of Moscow, explained the interruptions that had begun as follows. Say, “we could supply much more meat to Moscow, until the demand is fully satisfied, but the front of the unloading of refrigerated sections does not allow. Because there are not enough access roads, they do not have time to unload the refrigerator. "

    Democrats-priests were touched by this nonsense: in the same way, through bureaucratic sabotage and provocations, in February 1917, the liberals artificially created interruptions in the supply of Petrograd in order to overthrow Nicholas II. Now in Moscow committees were created to combat sabotage. Naive enthusiasts entered them with a simple idea: refrigerated sections with frozen meat can be served directly on the access roads of Moscow giant factories. For example, the space rocket them. Khrunichev, where about 80 thousand workers worked, the metallurgical plant "Hammer and Sickle" and "Moskvich" with 20 thousand collectives and others. The trade union committees would distribute everything, the workers unloaded, but no. With such a scheme, not a single kilogram of meat would get to dealers. But the working people were unaware: it was this new class of shadow traders who were nurtured by perestroika.
