Lukashenko is sweating the potato shortage in Belarus, too. Big problem.

Ukraine is obviously winning the war then
Any updates on those high egg prices that you posted about last year?

>>potatoes have tripled in price in the supermarkets compared to 2024
That won’t phase the Russians. But, when vodka prices go up, there’s going to be riots in the streets.

Just over a buck for 2.2 pounds. 1.99 for 5 pounds is a deal here in the States.

Lukashenko urged everyone to plant potatoes, warning it could help avoid future problems:
“Even if you’ve never grown potatoes before, I suggest you start. There’s still time.”
To: marcusmaximus
Starchy potatoes is the worst vegetable. I avoid eating potatoes. May be why I don’t get fat.

Stop joking us. The Great Russian Egg Catastrophe of 2024 already caused the Russian egg famine. There’s no one left to starve in the Great Ruskie Potato Famine. Some scholarly guy posted about the Russian eggsitential threat at least a hundred times here on FR.

The latest potatoes prices I could find is 56 cents a kilo, posted 2 weeks ago. Whatever is going on can't be a big deal or there would be a lot more recent videos.

First, it was eggs and not it's potatoes! How will Russia survive?

Any updates on those high egg prices that you posted about last year? Recent prices are running around 8 cents an egg or .96 cents a dozen.

Oh, My. I remember when Ronaldus Magnus would announce that the United States would continue shipping massive amounts of wheat to the Soviet Union. Socialism / Communism doesn’t work.
Who, what will take over Russia when Putin finally goes?
