Christmas tree, tangerines, jellied meat. The latter is an indispensable attribute of the festive table, especially in winter. And in the summer, some housewives managed to cook it. And the biscuits with milk? It’s just a culinary sketch on the theme of “golden childhood”. Kissel, birch sap – we all knew it, ate it and loved it. And boiled condensed milk was the number one delicacy, better than any snickers!
But our children are not like that. Snickers are not always tasty for them. Here are the chips – yes. How will they react to food from the past? We found several such tasting experiments on YouTube. And it turned out to be just hilarious. It all started with the fact that not all children generally understand what the USSR is.
“We haven’t been through history yet,” says the serious dark-haired boy.
However, in a food context, it is not worth touching on politics. Let’s go straight to the jellied meat. The children looked at the gelatinous something on the plate with bewilderment.
“This is a chill, something like that,” one of the participants strained his memory. The girls were categorical: “What is this? I definitely won’t. I don’t like that. ” But nevertheless, they began to pensively pick the unfortunate jellied meat. Verdict: Regular frozen soup. Someone ate the jelly, and someone said that it is categorically inedible. Zeltz had more success. Although some would gladly exchange it not even for chips, but for mother’s soup.
It turned out funny with liver sausage: none of the participants in the experiment was able to identify it. On the palate, most of the dish was approved. But when they found out that it was a liver, they spat out the half-chewed and declared that such food should be given to the enemies.
The children were also disappointed by the favorite delicacy of Soviet children – a loaf with boiled condensed milk. “Superglue with caramel flavor,” commented the young gourmets.
But the cookies soaked in milk were to the taste. “It’s kind of like cereal, just old. Typical SS flakes, ”the children diligently searched for comparisons. But in general – “ten out of ten”.
We tested canned sprat, and a loaf with butter and sugar, and jelly (warm jelly? Fu), and potatoes baked over a fire. The children’s reaction is priceless. However, see for yourself.
