    Just ignore them. Russian troll. They are just salty that they’re now stuck buying Borscht Cola or whatever the hell russians drink when they run out of vodka. Also, he’ll probably be dead in a year when they lower the draft age to 10 or however old he is.

      Borscht as is known all throughout most of the ex-USSR and the world is Ukrainian. The red beet version, that is. The more general term roots in Poland where (even much earlier) it meant a soup with hogweed (hence the name), then sour soups in general.

      Kvass should be safe though, it’s a generally east-Slavic thing, basically low to negligible ABV sour beer from rye. And yes that’s exactly what Russians are drinking anyways, the cola craze after the fall of the USSR was short-lived.

      And just to add injury to injury: Pelmeni aren’t Russian, either. The name is Permic pointing straight to (near) Siberia, it’s thought that Mongols brought the general idea of dumplings from China there on their adventures which also explains the pepper. OTOH that means that the stuff you see in supermarkets, frozen bags of them to throw in boiling water, is 110% traditional (modulo the plastic).

        Great comment. Refreshing to see some intelligence here from time to time, like the nice sour bready tang of kvass!

        Imagine thinking there’s any racism there. You’d have to be so far up your own intestines, you’d be able to see through the mouth.

        These threads are great because it allows me to easily isolate, find and block the obvious trolls. Man, you and isthereany are so angry. Your post histories read like typical Youtube comments. Pot, kettle?
