They might have despised the American food, but approximately at the same time the Soviet People's Comissar for Food Industry Anastas Mikoyan was _also_ touring USA, loving everything and making plans to set the food industry in USSR in the same way. He had especial plans for the hamburger... politics and history interfered and they lost the buns somewhere, but the industry-produced cutlet (basically the meat patty from hamburger) was a great favorite until the end of USSR.
