In Russia, it was beans. [She takes a small bite, eating slowly so that her stomach doesn't roil at the thought of all the meals that were composed of only beans.] The thing we heard all of the time is that you must be grateful for what the government managed to get to us from the bread regions or the countries willing to trade with Soviets.
[She knows that now the scarcity was mostly a control tactic used by the government, but it wasn't exactly easy to find that information out when the government comrades were living like fat cats while the peasants continued to starve. Not much of a change, if she's honest, between Imperial Russia and the Soviet Union. New name, new rules, same bullshit in the end.]
