The Soviet Cornflakes Operetta Commercial:

Text in English

If you want to be healthy,

And live a hundred years,

Ask nicely at a restaurant

or cafeteria,

eat your meal.

Sit, relax, don't hurry...


"Where are you from?"

"We're from Kuban,

We grew up in Azerbaijan,

in warm, southern climes,

on virgin Kazakh land."


"Ok, so what do you want?"


"We want to be on the menu!" 


"No, brothers, sorry,

I don't mean to chase you off!

But I'm not changing the menu!

We have salads and soups

made with cornmeal,

and puddings and cakes

made from the sweeter variety,

and appetizers and side dishes,

in short, a feast for the whole world!


These dishes are a miracle!

I'll make them every day.

And I'll tell you plainly:

Any homemaker can 

prepare these dishes easily

and they'll always turn out great!"
