Can someone calculate the calories in that? I'm too lazy.

Maybe don't include the sugar. That's a shit ton of sugar to go through in month.

Half a liter of vodka monthly? Aren't the Poles known for their consumption of vast quantities of the stuff?

Their priorities were fucked up. Cigarettes and alcohol, obviously, but more sugar than rice? Huh?

Also, lots of meat but no other food groups?

Would they have been expected to grow their own vegetables, or did they just embrace the average young male diet?

Alright, where are the anti capitalist tankies defending this?

I'm not gonna say that's anywhere near sufficient, but as a US citizen where do I sign up

I'm as anti-capitalist as it comes but how the hell would this even last half a week, let alone a night with the vodka, rice, and sweets

Sounds like a miserable existence. You're going to need a lot more vodka than that to cope.

I find it funny that a lot of people seem to be assuming that this is everything that they were allowed to eat. Fruits and veggies have been completely banned, in this world! Haha
