I got a package from Moscow yesterday

Luckily it was just my daughters monthly subscription to trytreats.com There was one chocolate candy that was good but we couldn't figure out what the inside was made of. Some odd textured white substance....

So, at least one good thing can come from mother Russia LOL

Related to their Chernobyl ice cream.

When we were in Moscow at the circus there was an ice cream vendor outside. The ice cream was an odd green color but it was also sitting outside in the heat without cooling. It did not melt, it was a nice and tidy cone with green ice cream that did not melt outside in the heat or as you ate it. Apparently it was even cool when you ate it. I did not eat it, my husband and sons did.

So, 20+ years later they are all OK so if it is related you should be fine except for an odd desire to ride a unicycle around in small circles in front of an audience now and again.

So as a gift I went to the local Russian grocery store to get an assortment of junk foody items that she might see at a train station.
Idea was to be acquainted with the stuff to have a quick go to snack choice.
She took the basket to work for a group taste test..
Result was sympathy for the Russians... nothing was deemed edible
