Top 5 dishes from the USSR that no one eats anymore
In the Soviet Union, the range of products was too small. Accordingly, the number of dishes that were cooked most often was reduced to a minimum.
Sometimes, in order to diversify the diet, housewives had to use their imagination and create quite interesting combinations of products. FoodOboz brings to your attention the top 5 dishes from the USSR that no one eats anymore.

In the USSR, this was considered a full-fledged meal. Spices, fried vegetables, and a pack of dumplings were added to boiling water. The result was a strange-looking dish with a rather unpleasant taste.

Thursday was called "fish day" in the USSR. It was on this day that one could taste many rather strange fish dishes. For example, canteens used to cook fish soup with canned fish. You could find fish heads, scales, and bones in it. Sometimes they used canned fish instead of fresh, which made the dish even less appetizing.
Milk soup

Pilaf with stew

In the USSR, meat was a rather scarce product, so housewives had to come up with a substitute for it. That's how pilaf with stew, called "plav," appeared. Interestingly, the stew at that time was made exclusively for the military, so it did contain real meat, which is why the dish tasted quite good.
Loaf with butter and sugar
