Like Food Under Communism

“Dark humor is like food under Communism:
Not everyone gets it.”

Also like Communism, it sounds promising…
…but turns out to be deeply disappointing.
No stars.

But was there a long line?

I would have expected more Communists in the dish names. They must have been rationed.

There was not. And I noticed that they expected to be paid for the food, too. I suspect that they may be heretical Communists.

Were there coupons for those who had not received their SNAP benefit?

Mensheviks! Trotskyites!

But there really is a rich vein of commie references to mine for food & beverage names.

The Wrecker = the strongest drink on the menu
The Hoarder = the meal w/ the most calories
The Kulak = an empty plate - just kidding! actually a vegetarian plate or a wheat beer
The Trotsky = a bloody Mary by another name
The Che = a cuban dish
Etc.
