Clearly made with care, not just gross slop. Reminds me of this report from the CIA that Soviet diet was more nutritious.

FULL TEXT:

American and Soviet citizens eat about the same amount of food each but the Soviet diet may be more nutritious.

According to a CIA report released today (8 Jan, 1983)) both nationalities may be eatng too much for good health.

The CIA drew no conclusions about the nutritional makeup of the Soviet and American diets but commonly accepted U.S. health views suggest the Soviet diet may be slightly better.

According to Central Intelligence Agency, an average Soviet citizen consumes 3 280 calorious a day, compared to 3 520 calories for the American.

The average daily calorie intake in teh Soviet Union is: grain products and potates 44%; sugar 13%; dairy and eggs 11%; fats and oils 17%; meat and fish 8%; and other products 7%.

The american consumes daily: grain and potatoes 26%,; sugar 17%; dairy and eggs 12%; fats and oils 18%; meat and fish 21%; and other products 6%.

Americans eat more fish and more sugar, more dairy products and eggs, and more fats and oils and less grain the average Soviet citizen, and consumes more calories.

Generally held nutrional standards suggest individuals need fewer calories, less meat, less sugar and more grain to stay fit.
