The executive authority persistently continues to follow the gastronomic line. It started with "Russian breakfasts", which the Ministry of Industry and Trade started promoting in the national catering menu last October. And now it has reached GOST approval for the entire national cuisine, including borscht, okroshka, vinaigrette and the culinary product "Kolobok". During the days of the Soviet Union, the authorities also thoroughly regulated all aspects of life, activity, production and consumption, but things did not then reach GOST standards for dishes, and limited themselves to state standards for basic products. Now it was decided to delve deeper into the problem and set clear parameters on how to cook, fry, salt and steam in home kitchens. Of course, the issue of tasty and healthy food is at the top of the agenda and needs to be regulated. Older generations have long noticed that the earlier borscht in canteens was richer, and dumplings were of different quality. But the situation cannot be corrected by administrative decisions alone; It is also necessary to create such favorable conditions for preparing food that the catering chefs themselves will want to feed the Russians so that they ask for more and do not skimp on tips.
