Description: Two Soviet Propaganda Posters - Stay Sober & Better Living - Ready To Frame Reproductions 1. Down with kitchen slavery - give us a new way of life. In the first decades of Soviet power, the Bolsheviks tried to push the idea of "Down with kitchen slavery!". They considered the home and family meals to be bourgeois relics that distracted women from participating in production and social activities. Already during the period of "war communism", Soviet Russia opened many public canteens. True, they were not an invention of the Bolsheviks. Such establishments had already appeared in tsarist Russia. The Bolsheviks, with their inherent radicalism, surpassed everyone. In conditions of shortage of elementary products to bind almost the entire population to the institutions of the "communal cauldron" was not difficult. It was then that all the "charms" of Soviet catering appeared: a meager choice, poor hygiene, and poor food quality. During the period of forced industrialization and forced collectivization in the largest cities were built giant factories-kitchens. They massively supplied ready meals to workers' canteens and semi-finished products to stores. Then there was "serious" talk about "the elimination of housewives as a class": a woman was needed in the shops, on construction sites and in the field .... However, and factories did not make the food tastier. This is evidenced by the dishes of the early 1930s with remarkable slogans "public catering under the fire of labor self-criticism". And the party leadership preferred to eat not in canteens, but with home cooks. But only after the failure of utopian projects the course on forced public catering was dropped. According to the materials of the "Heritage" author Alexander Smirnov. 2. No Alcohol. No to alcoholism. For a sober lifestyle.
