    “Look, comrade sweetie — you asked what a calorie deficit was.”

    A Soviet-era grocery store meme: grandma shows her granddaughter an empty fish counter and says, “Look, sweetie — you asked what a calorie deficit was.”

    The joke is that in Soviet times, “calorie deficit” wasn’t a diet plan — it was just everyday shopping.
