Jan 22, 2010 - It's only partly true. As in any other country, the most popular drinks being counterfeited. But in Russia (especially in underdeveloped regions) - very large percentage of people living low. They haven't got enough money for high-quality drinks. By the way, do y know that Alcohol consumption in Russia is more than double the critical level?!

Jan 23, 2010 - Every nation has its traditional alcoholic drink, and its pluses - the tradition of cooking, taste, aroma. The main plus - moderate consumption. Less - excessive use. And people who use surrogates and suffering because of it - is everywhere!

Jan 24, 2010 - I like vodka very much. It is a big culture how to drink vodka in Russia. It must be with salted cucumbers, red fish, mushrooms and hot potatoes. This is fantastic!

Jan 24, 2010 - Vodka is a part of our culture and national character. My surname is Smirnov and I am very glad that one of the best alcohl in the world has my last name. Although I am not even a president.

Jan 25, 2010 - This is the most stupid tradition that had ever been. Stupid are those who drink this "national product" and those who make it are criminals. The business built on producing and selling vodka is equal to business built on making and selling porno.

Jan 25, 2010 - It's not right to think about Russia that Vodka is our national beverage. I would say it's a stereotype as that a lot of bears live in our streets and our favorite article of cloth is a cap with ear flaps

Jan 26, 2010 - Vodka - an evil that people use to yourselves. Alcohol - this is not the one drink that healthy people should consume, and patients also should not eat it.
