Food (12 pics + text)
With food in the Soviet Union was all quite lousy. The chance to buy something delicious in stores tend to zero. During the delicious queues. Tasty could give "in order" - there was a whole system "tables of orders", which actually is a distribution center for its products. In order table could count on delicious veteran (moderately), writer (not bad) party worker (too bad).
Residents of cities in general closed by Soviet standards rolled in clover in Christ's bosom. But in their cities was very boring and they were Travel Abroad. However, almost all were Travel Abroad.
Live well to those who could be anything useful. For example, the store manager, "Wanda" was respected man. Super Vipom by recent standards. And the butcher was respected. And the boss of a "Children's World" respected. Even the cashier at the Leningrad station. All that they can somehow "control." Familiarity with them called "connections" and "strings". Director of groceries was quite sure that his children will go to a good university.
1975-th year. Bakery. I felt that the cuts on loaves made with hands (now the robot napilivaet)
, the year 1975. Sheremetyevo-1. Here, by the way, not much has changed. The cafe can be found chocolate, beer, sausage and peas. Sandwiches did not exist, could be in the presence of a sandwich, which is a piece of white bread, one end of which was a spoon of red caviar, and on the other - one turn of butter, which each as he could push and pritaptyval fork under the caviar.
Stores were two types of bread. The first - a counter. For a saleswoman in containers were loaves and loaves. The freshness of the bread was determined in the process of questioning already bought bread or in a dialogue with the saleswoman:
- Over 25 fresh loaf?
- Normal.
Or if the buyer does not cause rejection:
- At night, they brought.
The second type of bakery - self-service. Here movers rolled up containers to special openings on the other side of which is a shopping center. The saleswoman was not, there were only cashier. It was cool because bread could poke your finger. Of course, not allowed to touch the bread, it hung on rough ropes special fork or spoon. Spoons were still here and there, and a fork to determine the freshness was unreal. Therefore, each picked up a hypocritical device and gently turned the finger to check the usual way, how well pressed. After a spoon quite unclear.
Individual packaging of bread, fortunately, did not exist. Today, almost all the bread - the evaporated tasteless shit because he can sit in a plastic suffocation.
Loaf is better that someone gently fingered than insipid percha. And you could always checking soft hands, take buhanochku from other series, to which no one has ever reached for.

Packages on hand too, no one gave - each come with their own. Or with a shopping bag. Either that, in the hands carrying.
At the grandmother in the hands of packages with yogurt and milk (1990 st.). There was no Tetrapak was some Elopak. On the package was written "Elopak. Patented ". Blue triangle indicates the direction from which the packet should be opened. When only bought the packaging line, it came with a barrel right adhesive. I found the time when the package was opened in nuzhom place without pain. Then glue was over, it was necessary to open on two sides, one side and then put back. Blue triangles left, and glue since nobody bought, little idiots.
Incidentally, when the packaging of products, there was no additional information - either the address or the phone manufacturer. Guests Only. And the brand was not. Milk called milk, and vary in fat content. My favorite - in a red bag, five percent.
