🍔 Did you know that burgers appeared in Russia as early as the 1930s? They were brought to the Soviet Union by Anastas Mikoyan — the People's Commissar of the Food Industry.

👀 He visited the USA and was so impressed by the production of burgers that he decided to feed Soviet workers with them. Burgers were referred to in a Soviet way as "hot cutlets." They resembled their foreign counterpart very little: the cutlet was served without a bun, ketchup, or onions. It was simply placed between two slices of bread, sometimes adding a piece of cucumber and sour cream. The only variation was in the type of bread the customer chose — white or gray.

🍟 After the war, the famous cutlets, which had long been called Mikoyan cutlets, appeared in urban cafeterias and cost only 7 kopecks. The next time Muscovites tried real burgers was 50 years later, in 1990, when the first large McDonald's opened in the capital.

Write in the comments what you think is better - Mikoyan cutlets or McDonald's burgers.

☄️ The sensational comet ATLAS was captured by a Siberian photographer

📸 The stunning images of the cosmic beauty were taken by astrophotographer Alexey Polyakov.

👀 The comet has become one of the brightest in recent decades. It can even be seen with the naked eye.

By the end of October, it will slowly begin to lose its brightness as it moves away from the Earth and the Sun, so hurry to witness this marvel.

👋 Did you know that the symbol of the Moscow Zoo is an animal called the Pallas's cat, also known as the manul?

🥁 If you have been to the Moscow Zoo, you have surely seen this timid, elusive creature. But why is this beautiful yet not very sociable animal the zoo's symbol? It turns out that the Moscow Zoo is the leading zoo in the International Zoo Community that focuses on manuls. Thanks to the Moscow Zoo, the population of manuls has increased, and these adorable cats have been sent to zoos in other countries.

👀 Interesting fact: The Moscow Zoo has been open since 1864, and since then, the number of its inhabitants has grown to 8,000.

🔖 According to a decree from the Soviet leadership, it was planned to build eight Stalinist skyscrapers, but the construction in Zaryadye was not completed.

🎁 The eighth skyscraper, designed by Lev Rudnev, was built in Warsaw between 1952 and 1955 as a gift to the Polish people.

🇷🇺 Initially, it was named the Palace of Culture and Science named after I.V. Stalin, but the name was removed during Khrushchev's time.

🔝 The skyscraper, standing at 237 meters (including the antenna), is still the tallest building in Poland.
